In a ration of a human being cereals take 8 – 13% of public grains consumption. It is characteristic for Ukraine that here cereal production of wide range of grain crops ( more than 10 names) is consumed. Rice, millet, buckwheat are sometimes called strictly cereal crops as correspondent grain crops are mostly used for cereals production. Besides groats and cereal production is made from barley, wheat, peas, oat and corn grain. In some cases such grain crops as sorghum, turkestan millet, lentil and others are processed into cereals, there is a wide choice of cereals products, it includes whole-kernel and split cereals, flakes etc. This plenty of groats products is historically substantiated. Ukraine is one of the rare countries where all sorts of grain crops are grown and cultivated.
