Whole grains, what is the difference compared to normal ones?

Maggio 2023

Within the cereal sector, Pineta srl, a company based in the Agro di Cerignola, Foggia, has always focused on innovation and the enhancement of the territory. But which cereals should we prefer for a balanced diet? Let's find out together.

What are whole grains?

Cereals are the core of our business, a 360° range of services spanning from high-quality seeds to marketing and storage. However, it is essential to distinguish between whole grains and refined grains.

Components of the Whole Grain

A whole grain is a complete source of nutrients, as it retains the bran, germ, and endosperm—components that make the cereal complete and nutritious.

Refined Grains vs. Whole Grains at Pineta srl

Our company emphasizes the importance of opting for whole grains. Refined grains, by contrast, lose many of their nutrients during the refining process.

The Whole Grain Selection at Pineta srl

Thanks to a silo storage capacity of 21,600 tons and an annual marketing volume of 20,000 tons of grain, we offer a wide range of whole grains.

Brown Rice

We provide various types of brown rice, suitable for a diet rich in fiber and minerals.

Barley

Barley is one of the most versatile cereals, perfect for summer and the warmer months.

Other Cereals

Millet, buckwheat, and oats are just some of the whole grains you can find in our catalog.

Nutritional Properties of Whole Grains

As one of the leading companies in the cereal sector, Pineta srl offers consultancy from seed purchase to harvest, helping you integrate whole grains into your diet.

Fiber and Satiety

Whole grains are rich in fiber which contributes to good intestinal transit and a prolonged feeling of satiety.

Vitamins and Minerals

In addition to providing energy, whole grains are rich in vitamins and minerals, thus contributing to overall well-being.

With a passion for work and the territory passed down from generation to generation, our mission is to provide services and assistance to maximize the benefits for our clients, who include more than 400 farms and the management of 7,500 cultivated hectares.
