Kells NC-213 General Business Meeting Minutes February 22, 2007, Kansas City, Missouri Administrative Advisor/Coordinator, F. William (Bill) Ravlin called the meeting to order at 12:15PM. Present: Paul Armstrong, USDA ARS Mark Casada, USDA ARS Floyd Dowell, USDA GMPRC Florence Dunkel, University of Montana-Bozeman David B. Funk, USDA GIPSA Haidee B. Gonzales, Kansas State University Tim Hermann, Texas A&M Charles R. Hurburgh, Jr., Iowa State Klein Ileleji, Purdue University David Jackson, University of Nebraska-Lincoln Stephen Kells, University of Minnesota Bill Koshar, The Ohio State University Elizabeth Maghirang, USDA GMPRC Bob Marlow, The Andersons, Inc. Dirk Maier, Purdue University Mike Montross, University of Kentucky Joe Needham, The Andersons, Inc. Bill Ravlin, The Ohio State University Jim Stitzlein, Consolidated Grain and Barge Richard Stroshine, Purdue University Charlene Wolf-Hall, North Dakota State University Order of Business Presented: Two handouts were distributed for use during the meeting: 1) Agenda Items for Meeting and 2) New and Renewal Approval Process for NCRA Projects. Business Items by Agenda: Replace of an Objective Co-Chair: David Jackson, University of Nebraska-Lincoln will replace Don Wicklows vacancy due to retirement. Submission of SAES Annual Report: Discussion was held regarding deadlines and procedures for submission. There was a request for all to get their reports in on-time as it puts additional pressures on those preparing the report. Impact Statements: Discussion was held regarding Impact Statements and their importance (i.e., Impact Statements are the currency of the day). B. Ravlin encouraged all to increase their attention toward these statements. The 2008 Annual Meeting/Winter Technical Session: Timing of Topic Deadline: Currently the deadline for topics to the NC-213 annual meetings is October 31. There were questions about setting this deadline later to accommodate speakers. However, this date was accepted (with a certain degree of informality) to help with marketing to GEAPS and other marketing/program development opportunities. The industry needs advanced information about our meeting to plan budgets accordingly. Addition of Posters: There was some discussion of including posters in the meeting to increase the information provided to the group and others outside NC-213 (i.e., GEAPS participants). Location: Two locations were presented in conjunction with 1) GEAPS (Omaha, Nebraska) or 2) Wheat Quality Council (Kansas City, Missouri). A poll was taken and the GEAPS meeting received approval with the proposed dates of February 26  27, 2008. NCRA Approval: Discussion was held regarding submission of the annual progress reports from participating stations. One question that was posed was; Can we use the same reports between the NC213 and the Experiment Station? After discussion, it was decided that this would not be a problem as long as the deadlines are accommodated for both reports. Another question that was posed was; Should we produce a book (present form) or a CDRom? After much discussion, it was decided that the present form book would be preferable for public relations purposes. It was the general consensus of the group that CDRoms tend to go unread. Web based reporting may be a future possibility, particularly if we use parts of the report to highlight research in the newsletters. There will likely be a period of transition between paper and electronic format that will occur as a paperless system is adopted by stakeholders and those in Government. NCRA Re-Write: Thank you to M. Montross, University of Kentucky, for heading the rewrite process. General discussion was held regarding the process. B. Ravlin requested notes from those who recorded ideas from the industry panel presentation, to be sent to his attention at ravlin.1@osu.edu. Discussion was held regarding what opportunities should be addressed / retained. The initial list included: fermentation, global markets and value added products, Bio-based products, economics, quality modeling, risk management, tech life cycle analysis, evolution of new business, climate change and logistics, and strategic entity. Additional Business: A motion to approve the Responsibilities for NC-213 Officers as presented. D. Jackson made the motion with F. Dunkel seconding the motion. There being no discussion the Responsibilities were unanimously passed. From a financial perspective, NC-213 is in good shape and sound. Secretary Position for February 2007-February 2008: M. Casada, USDA/ARS, was recommended for the position. M. Casada accepted and was unanimously accepted. IQGC 2008: D. Maier led the discussion on IQGC 2008. The idea was initially accepted by all in attendance. The tentative date is June 2008. Several locations were put forth to the group and they included: St Louis, Des Moines, and Minneapolis. Dirk encouraged members to send him their thoughts for IQGC 2008. Business Concluded. At 2:00PM Respectfully submitted by Dr. Stephen A. Kells

Objective 1. Develop practices and technologies to support quality management systems for production, distribution, processing, utilization of quality grains and oilseeds. Expanding the capability and use of near infrared spectroscopy. Outcome: The requirement of only one instrument model in a given trading system may be eliminated, which will reduce testing costs, and provide incentives for new technology development. True calibrations (beyond correlations) will have a major impact on genetic screening programs for secondary factors, by identifying unique samples that would have otherwise been missed. Calibration monitoring systems can be simplified, and the cost of calibration maintenance can be reduced by more effective targeting of truly unique or independent samples. Evaluation of high fermentable corn hybrids in Kentucky. Outcome: Ethanol production is influenced by numerous variables. Comparing the effects of agronomic, hybrid, drying and storage practices on ethanol yield will result in better decision making tools for producers and processors. Examination of milling properties, dough characteristics, protein functionality, and baking properties of soft white wheat varieties. Outcome: This project will result in a better understanding of wheat flour quality in relation to end-use products. In addition, the use of TG will potentially allow (1) bakers to use weaker flour to produce satisfactory baked products, and (2) millers to provide more consistent flour quality to bakers in spite of environmental growing factors. Environmental and genetic impacts on wheat and cowpea quality. Outcome: Wheat varieties released and published literature indicates no consideration has been given to post harvest issues other than end-use qualities. Conventional systems have a quick fix to insect infestation with fumigation, but organic operators do not have that option due to a lack of registered organic fumigants. This wheat research provides a methodology to analyze all lines of wheat in order to detect novel gene expression related to post harvest resistance, which could lead to new strategies for post harvest protection. Both the cowpea research results and the results with Lactobacillus fermentum are issues of food security for material resource poor communities in Mali and throughout the world. We have determined that for subsistence farmers and their children who survive on cereal-based diets, low in certain essential amino acids necessary for protein production, cowpeas and L. fermentum provide useful, year-round dietary supplements to provide protein. Particularly for growing children, the correct amount of protein is essential for ideal physical and mental development and for better resistance to disease. Effect of pre-harvest production practices on end-use quality of durum wheat. Outcome: Data indicate that the association between bleached kernels and low carotenoid pigment content is probably due to enhanced lipid oxidation promoted by rehydration of kernels during damp conditions. Lutein content declined during kernel desiccation. Lutein is important for aesthetic quality and also for healthfulness of durum wheat and durum wheat based products. Lutein has been shown to protect humans against age degenerative diseases such as macular degeneration, cataracts, and certain cancers. Thus, research directed towards the enhancement of carotenoid pigment content will improve the aesthetic and nutritional quality of durum wheat produced in the US. The knowledge gained by this research will eventually contribute to increased economic opportunities for producers and food manufacturers by improving quality and increasing value of durum wheat and its end-use products. Corroborative study on physical properties and milling processes in maize. Outcome: Results from the corroborative study would enable us to compare laboratories measurements of maize quality to provide the variance structure of within and between laboratories as well as hybrids. This study may assist in establishing universal standard test procedures and data interpretation to help future research and industry partners. Evaluate the baking quality of Texas wheat breaders samples. Outcome: Sorghums developed in the Texas A&M University sorghum improvement program continue to be used commercially to provide identity preserved grain for a wide variety of human and animal foods. There is increasing interest in use of special sorghums in healthy foods. Sorghum is used in processed high value foods for sophisticated markets, i.e., gluten free products, natural, dark-colored, whole-grain products with high dietary fiber and increased antioxidant levels. Sorghum use in processed foods and beverages is increasing. A major US brewer is using sorghum in gluten-free beer; South Africa and other breweries in Africa use white, identity-preserved sorghum in commercial, malt-free, lager beer. Improved understanding of the unique anthocyanins and other phenols in different gentotypes of sorghum should lead to new products containing sorghum grain or sorghum extracts for use in nutraceuticals and natural coloring agents. Objective 2. Develop basic knowledge, science-based standards, and technologies that promote crop quality, food security and food safety in grain markets. Quality management system applications for agriculture. Outcome: The company involved in the study has reorganized its management structure to facilitate the ISO system. Three facilities are ISO certified, and six have private certification in preparation for ISO implementation. Internal auditor and quality manger jobs have been created. Site security and food security needs have been easily added to the ISO system. Iowa grain firms have utilized the web based bioterror recordkeeping module to begin compliance with the FDA regulations. The grain tracking system has demonstrated significant income potential created by more precise inventory management. The ISO22006 Standard, ISO 9000 Application to Production Agriculture is now in its third committee draft. Advancement to Draft International Standard is expected in Summer 2007. Ethanol yield with FT-NIR. Outcome: U.S. ethanol production capacity was 4.4 billion gallons per year in February of 2006 and is expected to reach 7 billion gallons by the end of 2007, creating a huge surplus of DDGS. Value of DDGS can be improved by modified processes that reduce fiber and increase protein, but rapid measurement and monitoring of fermentation processes and variability in DDGS quality is needed. Calibration for measuring fermentables in corn were developed during the initial phases of this research. Effect of low temperatures on mortality of Indianmeal Moth (Plodia interpunctella). Outcome: The effect of broken corn on Indianmeal moth (Plodia interpunctella) survivability was determined. A cumulative lethality index (CLI) model to estimate mortality of P. interpunctella larvae under changing temperature conditions was developed. It is expected that this research will lead to recommendations for storage bin equipment and for stored grain management that can be used to limit insect populations without the use of chemical insecticides. Reduced use of chemical insecticides should reduce grain storage costs and reduce potential harmful environmental and human health impacts from chemical insecticides. Natural occurring antifungal agents from lactic acid bacteria. Outcome: This work may lead to development of safe, natural, biological antifungal preservatives for use in stored grain as a replacement for chemical fungicides. Biological evaluation of reduction of Fumonisin B1 toxicity in corn grits by extrusion processing. Outcome: This research produced evidence of reduction in toxicity of fumonisins in corn after extrusion processing with 10% added glucose. Some less toxic breakdown products were identified and there appeared to be lowered toxicity in rats. This helps to answer the question of whether the extrusion process actually destroys the toxins or simply masks them by causing reactions with the corn matrix and making them non-detectable but still toxic. There appears to be a reduction in toxicity, though further studies are in progress to confirm this. This information is needed by the food industry and regulatory agencies and it is also valuable to consumers of corn based food products. The results of this research can be used to develop extrusion processes that will give better reductions of fumonisins resulting in safer food products. The results of this work were also used to prepare a USDA/CSREES Competitive Grants research proposal that was funded and allows the work to continue on a larger scale to extend and confirm the findings of this Andersons Grant. Flaxseed quality assessment: factors affecting seed quality. Outcome: This project demonstrated the feasibility of flaxseed as an antifungal agent. It also provided details about the antifungal activity of different varieties and that the stability was influenced by heat. The data reported suggests that flaxseed could be useful as an antifungal agent in food with minimal heat application. Investigation of methods to improve the flowability of distillers dried grains with solubles (DDGS) during processing, handling, storage and transport. Outcome: The results of this research will improve the quality consistency of DDGS especially with respect to better flowable product during processing, handling, transport and storage. In general, we will use the results to develop quality assurance protocols for DDGS co-products that will guide ethanol plant managers on what to monitor and how to improve the quality of their DDGS during production. The outcomes of this research will be transferred to the industry through workshops, extension Publications and Presentations, website, peer-reviewed journal papers and industry trade magazines. Monitoring stored grain quality. Outcome: The impact of this research will help solve grain storage problems by applying an available technology that can detect spoilage before it gets out-of-hand. If spoilage is detected early by an increase in CO2 concentration, the problem can be corrected by simple management practices such as applying aeration to cool and dry the grain mass. Ozonation of corn, wheat and barley for the control of pests and spoilage agents, and the removal of off-odors in commercial grain storage structures. Outcome: Ozonation serves as a preventative strategy against insect infestation and at the same time reduces/eliminates the microbial load (fungal and bacterial spores), as well as guards against off-odors. We believe there are many producers and handlers of food and feed grains (including conventional and organic food corn, wheat and barley) who will be interested in utilizing this new technology throughout the NC-213 Region. Physical and chemical properties of shelled corn related to conditioning and processing. Outcome: Quantification of kernel properties will document the variations in these properties that have developed and should facilitate assessment of whether these differences could have an impact upon certain aspects of processing. It may also identify hybrids with specific traits that are particularly desirable for specific end uses. Finally, it should provide information that could help seed corn companies develop hybrids with desirable traits. The tests with samples dried with air at higher temperatures will help to elucidate the effect of high temperature drying on kernel characteristics. Trapping as a means of monitoring stored product insects in buildings. Outcome: The use of contour analysis in mapping red flour beetle trap catch to locate foci of infestation in buildings has proven effective. Contour maps of trap catch have proven to be powerful tools for communicating insect problems to management, maintenance, and sanitation personnel, and its use by pest control companies is increasing. Improved handling and storage systems for grain quality maintenance and measurement. Outcome: The potential to reduce energy consumed for grain cooling is estimated at 25-50 percent. The greatest impact is the assurance of timely grain cooling and prevention of grain quality losses from deterioration and insect infestations. Results from this project may lead to the development of new insect pest management and temperature management strategies for stored wheat. The portable propane heat treatment systems provide low-cost, low-risk disinfestations of empty bins, while eliminating the concerns that arise with using chemicals. With development of better equations, the T and RH based sensors can provide increased accuracy for grain moisture content monitoring in bins and help prevent moisture-related grain quality losses during storage. Objective 3. Create and disseminate scientific knowledge that will enhance public confidence in market-driven quality management systems for grain. Outreach programs for supply-chain agriculture. Outcome: Based on the results of the ethanol study, new Iowa State Extension efforts in grain storage training and in supply chain evaluation were started. Programs will be operational in 2007. Plants could increase ethanol output by about 0.1 gal/bu if inputs were more consistent. For a 100 MM gal/yr plant, this would be 4,000,000 more gallons of ethanol or about $8 million per year. DGS quality would be more consistent as well. Assessing the susceptibility of shelled corn to invasion by storage fungi. Outcome: Managers of facilities where shelled corn is being stored could use rapid tests (<15 min) for initial screening for fungal susceptibility. The 3-day CO2 test kit results could then be used to more accurately determine the risk of spoilage during continued storage or shipment to tropical climates where conditions are more conducive to fungal growth. Sorghum utilization research. Outcome: The production of wheat-free foods from sorghum provides persons with celiac disease new food choices. Developing high quality wheat-free food products from sorghum provides new markets for the U.S. sorghum crop and may improve the food choices available to persons with celiac disease. The quality of wheat-free sorghum bread was improved through the use of sourdough fermentation and addition of enzymes and additional gums. Relationships between protein, fiber, and starch chemistry on fermentation of cereal grains were determined. Improved methods for the extraction and analysis of ergosterol in sorghum were developed. Objective grading and end-use property assessment of single kernels and bulk grain samples. Outcome: This project is in position to make a major contribution to breeding programs by speeding up the development of grain varieties by increased sorting. In addition to using commercial high speed sorting machines that operate on the basis of one r two wavelength of light, this group has developed automated sorter that utilize full NIR spectra and images to select grain traits. Some of these devices are commercially available and operate at approximately 30 kernels/minute. We also have prototypes of image and spectral based sorters that have throughputs over 600 kernels/minute. Hard winter wheat progenies research. Outcome: Securing and improving the quality of grains produced in the U.S. so that they meet the needs of both domestic and overseas customers is a very important but difficult task. Grain quality improvement begins with a sound breeding program and ends with growers. In 2006, the Hare Winter Wheat Quality Lab evaluated intrinsic quality parameters of hard winter breeding lines (2005 crop), and our data is of prime importance for the release of breeding lines, some of which become released cultivars grown by farmers. During the three-year period from 2000-2002, the average U.S. wheat production was 66.5 million metric tons (about 2.24 billion bushels): nearly one-half of U.S. wheat production and 41% of U.S. wheat export comes from hard red winter wheat. Over 95% of all hard winter wheats have been evaluated for end-use quality before they were released as cultivars. Therefore, our efforts greatly impact the overall U.S. wheat industry. Gluten protein effects on tortilla quality. Outcome: One of the major challenges in tortilla quality is the deterioration of texture with time (staling). In instances where tortillas are freshly prepared and consumed, shelf-life is not an issue, however, in the U.S. retention of fresh properties is important since tortillas are packaged sealed in plastic bags and consumed over the course of several weeks. Tortilla quality is measured using both objective and subjective methods and is dependent upon flour properties as well as ingredient formulation. Defining the functional roles that individual glutenins and gliadins proteins play in the formation of the glutenin network and macromolecular interactions will define the structural interactions and predictive analytical test for the selection of wheat cultivars ideally suited for the manufacture of premium quality tortillas. This method could be beneficial in developing analysis tools in early selection of lines for quality traits in wheat breeding programs. How variations in endosperm relate to environmental changes. Outcome: The results may help elucidate some unique characteristics of spelt flour and starch for future uses in the food industry, as well as provide additional information on environmental effects on starch granule size distribution and molecular structure.
