Cereal crops are plants of the grass family (Poaceae). They are a key sector of agriculture, serving as the main human food product, fodder for most farm livestock, and raw materials for many industries.
A common external feature of the grass family is the form of erect plants with hard hollow stems, elongated leaves, and blossom clusters in the form of a spike or a panicle.
Grain farming is the foundation of Russia's entire agricultural sector; it plays a key role in the economy, food security, and the country's foreign economic activity. Russia is among the world leaders in grain production and export.
