Dent Corn for Ethanol from Mexico
Yellow dent maize optimized for ethanol fermentation, shipped unmilled in large volumes for industrial processing. The intact grain, with kernels present and no hulling or working, classifies under heading 10.05 as maize other than seed or sweet corn. Its high starch content makes it a preferred feedstock for biofuel production.
