Abstract

In the past the aim of agriculture has been primarily to produce more and better food. However, during the last decade, production of industrial (non-food) raw materials from crops has been strongly advocated (Carlsson, 1995). The two demands for food and non-food materials require optimal utilisation of every potential source of plants and lands (Carlsson, 1994). Both dry crop and green crop fractionation of cereals have been developed for multipurpose uses for the food and non-food industries.
