What Is The Difference Between Wheat, Corn And Maize?

Wheat is a grass. It is a cereal that is cultivated all over the world. It is the second-largest crop in terms of worldwide production. Only maize ranks above it as the most cultivated cereal crop (rice is the third-largest cultivated crop in the world). Apart from being used as a crop to feed livestock and a construction material used to make thatched roofing, it is used to make flour, which is used in the preparation of bread, cakes, cookies, etc. Other uses of wheat are for fermentation in the making of alcoholic beverages such as beer, alcohol and vodka and as a biofuel.

On the other hand, maize is another name for corn. It is a cereal grain. Maize is known as corn in countries such as the United States, the English-speaking provinces of Canada, Australia and New Zealand. Corn is known for being a high-yielding variety of cereal grains.

Maize is harvested at maturity, when its kernels are dry and
can be stored or used as grain. Sweet corn is maize that's high in
sugar. It's harvested before maturity and therefore doesn't handle
storage well. It must be eaten immediately, as a vegetable. Or it must
be processed for canning or freezing, before the kernels become
inedibly starchy and tough.
Corn in the English language means "the common grain" so if
you asked a Scottish farmer 'haw the corn growing?' his answer would
refer to barley. In the US the corn is maize which is why it is a common
mistake to thing one is the other. So in answer for your question if
you are in the US then the corn is maize but anywhere else in the world
it isnt. Zaf.Mike from Kingsteignton, Devon, UK.
