Available in bulk at competitive prices, organic whole rye grains from trusted suppliers

Rye is a cereal crop widely grown for grain and forage. Known scientifically as "Secale Cereale", it belongs to the wheat family "Triticaceae" and is mainly used as flour, rye bread, rye beer and animal feed. Although it is not consumed on a large scale compared to wheat, it is still widely grown in many parts of the world, especially in areas where difficult conditions do not allow wheat to grow. Almost one-third of the world's rye production is used in the form of human food.

Rye grains are closely related to wheat and are primarily used as bread grains. Rye lacks the gluten protein, so it is often used if combined with wheat. Pure rye baked goods are heavier, denser, and darker than wheat breads. Grains are small, hard, dry seeds, with or without an attached husk or fruit layer, that are harvested for human or animal consumption. Rye is ground into flour for making bread, rye couscous bread and crispbread. It is also used to brew beer, whiskey and vodka. In agriculture, rye is used as animal feed.
