Grain Crop

Grain / greɪn / (গ্রে^ইন) n [grains are small, hard, dry seeds from a plant, especially a plant like grass, with or without attaching hulls or fruits layers, harvested for human or animal consumption. Agronomist also calls the plants producing such seeds “gr~~ain cro~~ps<দানাদার শস্য>”. The two main types of commercial grain crops are cereals such as wheat and rye, and legumes such as beans and soybeans. After being harvested, dry grains are more durable than other staple foods such as starchy fruits and tubers. This durability has made grains well suited to industrial agricultural products, since they can be mechanically harvested, transported by rail or ship, stored for long periods in silos, and milled for flour or pressed for oil. Thus, major global commodity markets exist of maize, rice, soybeans, wheat, and other grains, but not for tubers, vegetables, or other corps] (শস্যকণা; দানা): A few grains of rice
