Inspecting Grain in the United States [PDF ebook] 
Procedures and Diseases

Across America, U.S. grain flows from farm to elevator to destinations around the world. The Grain Inspection, Packers and Stockyards Administration (GIPSA), Federal Grain Inspection Services (FGIS), an agency of the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA), helps move that grain into the marketplace by providing farmers, grain handlers, processors, exporters, and international buyers with information that accurately and consistently describes the quality and quantity of grain being bought and sold. This book examines the nationally accepted grain standards and inspection procedures that provide producers, elevator operators, and others who trade grain with common terms for describing grain; a means for determining storability and end-product yield; and a framework for improving grain quality.
