What is Maize? Maize, also known as corn, is a staple food in many parts of the world, with total production surpassing that of wheat or rice. However, not all of this maize is consumed directly by humans. Some of the maize production is used for corn ethanol, animal feed and other maize products, such as corn starch and corn syrup. The six major types of corn are dent corn, flint corn, pod corn, popcorn, flour corn, and sweet corn. Maize is currently on the no-export list from Nigeria, but we can facilitate its export from other countries. Types Of Processed Maize/Corn 1). Corn Grits: Corn grits are made from ground, dried corn and particularly rich in iron and B vitamins, a coarser grind than cornmeal. 2). Cornmeal: Cornmeal is a meal (coarse flour) ground from dried maize (corn). 3). Corn Flour: Corn flour and corn starch are one and the same. Corn flour is a finely powdered corn product, used for thickening sauces like soups, stews, sauces and other dishes. It can also be used for confectionaries. 4). Corn Bran: Corn bran is a by-product derived from the production of corn flaking grits. The corn is crushed and the hull, the germ as well as the coarse meal are being separated from other particles. The corn bran mainly consists of the corn hull.
