Managing Flood-Submerged Grain

Grain elevators & processors should be aware of flooded grain situations in their areas

Grain elevators and grain processors should be aware of any flooded grain situations in their trade areas, saysCorn + Soybean Digest.

All grains for which the edible portion was submerged are considered adulterated.

Because flooded grain is adulterated, this grain should not be offered for sale nor knowingly taken into a commercial facility.

Processors have flooded grain as one of the reasonably foreseeable hazards being controlled in their Food Safety Plan under the Food Safety Modernization Act (FSMA).

Without an approved reconditioning plan, this grain is effectively a total loss with no portion recoverable from the market.
