Yellow maize grains which are yellow and/or light red in colour are considered to be yellow maize. Maize grains which are yellow and dark red in colour, provided the dark red colour covers less than 50% of the surface of the grain, are also considered to be yellow maize. White or yellow maize is a cereal distributed in many food supply operations, in grain, grits or flour.Whether maize should be white or yellow has to be determined considering beneficiaries food habits. Maize can also be red (not found in our operations). Milling should be processed only when distribution date is known, to avoid long storage of milled products. Shelflife of milled products is short because the fat content becomes rancid and acidic, and a milled product is very sensitive to micro-biological contamination. Maize meal can be stored a few weeks or months only, depending on the climatic and storage conditions, check before milling. Extraction rate when milling the grain can vary considerably. 75% is a first grade quality flour, 92% is cruder and will turn rancid or acidic very quickly but from better on a nutritional aspect. When fast use (few weeks after milling) cannot be guaranteed, extraction of 75% is highly Maize can be stored for a long period of time as whole grains, provided the storage is properly conducted (control, fumigation…) Storage location must be dry and well ventilated.
