Maize, also known as corn, has become a staple food in all parts of the world with total production surpassing that of rice or wheat. It is a cereal grain first domesticated by Indigenous peoples in southern Mexico about 10,000 years ago. The maize crop serves a number of purposes, from being used as food for the human population, to animal feed or for food manufacturers, industrial processors for products such as flour, corn starch and corn syrup. Indeed, these other purposes drive most of the world’s maize trade, with human consumption accounting for a small part of total maize production. Maize can also grow in a wide variety of climate conditions, proving its versatility in more ways than one.

While the six major types of maize are dent corn; flint corn; pod corn; popcorn; flour corn; and sweet corn, there are other subspecies of maize; the most prevalent being what we focus on, the white maize and yellow maize

Maize has historically been a volatile crop with steady variations in prices from season to season. These variations may be attributed to a number of factors including weather patterns, the rate of domestic supply and trends in the global maize demand and supply situations. Further, these variations are also reflected between different varieties and grades of maize.
