Binzhou's Grain Industry Transitions from "Grain Processing" to "Food Production"
BINZHOU, China, Sept. 21, 2023 /Xinhua-AsiaNet/--

On September 20, the team of "Trip of Media to Silk Road and Yellow River" 
arrived in Binzhou of Shandong, a major city in the grain industry. According 
to News Office of Binzhou Municipal Government, in recent years, Binzhou has 
accelerated the extension of its industrial chain and the development of a 
complete industrial chain, gradually transitioning from "grain processing" to 
"food production". Binzhou Zhongyu Food Co., Ltd. is a microcosm of the 
development of the grain industry in Binzhou.

When people think of wheat, they often associate it with products like steamed 
buns, bread, and noodles. However, at Zhongyu, a single wheat grain has been 
transformed into over 500 products across ten series, utilizing the full value 
of the wheat. While an ordinary enterprise can only produce flour and 
by-products with a total product value of around 3,700 yuan when processing a 
ton of wheat, Zhongyu can produce a wider range of products such as flour, 
fine-dried noodles, vital gluten, special-class edible alcohol, dietary fiber, 
Erythritol, and protein peptides, with a total product value of around 9,140 
yuan. This represents a 147% increase in output value compared to ordinary 
processing.
