The meeting was called to order at 3:05 pm by Chair, Dirk Maier.


1. Selection of new objective chairs was discussed. Charlie Hurburgh moved that the following be nominated:
Obj 1. Florence Dunkel and Don Wicklow
Obj 2. Tim Herrman and Charlene Wolf-Hall
Obj 3. Dirk Maier and Mike Montross
The motion was seconded by Linda Mason. In discussion it was stated that more economists were needed on the committee. However, due to a present dearth of economists on the committee, the motion carried.


There was discussion about having the Objective Chairs serve on the Anderson Grant Committee instead of terminology that called it a Grant Review Panel. If an objective chair had a proposal submitted he or she would be excused from deliberation on that proposal. This is listed as an Objective Chair duty; however, under the Anderson Grant Committee duties, the Objective Chairs are excluded from the list of people to serve on the Anderson Grant Committee.


2. Election of officers. Our present secretary had been unable to secure travel funds to attend NC-213 and had discussed with Dirk Maier, the possibility to step down presumably until a future date when funding and time commitments would enable continuation of officer rotation. Given the situation, the committee with regret chose to nominate a new secretary who would move into the Vice Chair position following this meeting; and a secretary elect who would move into the Secretary position following this meeting. The current Vice Chair, Marvin Paulsen, would move to Chair following this meeting. David Jackson was nominated as Secretary and Mike Montross was nominated as Secretary-elect. Linda Mason moved election of these two individuals. Charlie Hurburgh seconded the motion. Both agreed to serve. The motion passed.


3. Revision to Responsibilities of NC-213 Officers Document. A sub-committee of volunteers consisting of Charlie Hurburgh, David Jackson, Tim Herrman and Dirk Maier was appointed to study the NC-213 Officer Responsibilities and Objective Chair responsibilities and provide a set of new/ revised recommendations prior to the 2005 NC-213 Annual meeting. Part of the Objective Chair responsibilities would include how they serve on the Anderson Grant Committee. [Dirk Maier expressed willingness and was appointed to chair this committee by incoming Chair, Marvin Paulsen after the meeting.]


4. NC-213 website revisions. The Fine Materials in Grains edited by Richard Stroshine has been placed on the web site. We would also like to have some NCR bulletins included. There was some mention of trying to make the site even more user friendly.


5. Annual meeting A/V costs. Bill Koshar reported that a slide projector at the Minneapolis meeting costs $75. The committee suggested asking NC-213 members living locally to try to provide items such as slide projector, overhead, and a laptop for PowerPoint projection. At this meeting Vance Morey supplied a laptop for PowerPoint and graciously loaded and brought up the PowerPoint presentations. His efforts were greatly appreciated.


6. Scheduling of the NC-213 2005 Annual Meeting. People liked having the NC-213 Annual Meeting piggy back with another meeting, such as GEAPS in 2004. Next year GEAPS meets February 26 to March 1 in Albuquerque. We also discussed having it with the Wheat Council in Kansas City. Charlie Hurburgh moved to have the 2005 Annual Meeting in Kansas City in conjunction with the Wheat Council on February 9 ? 11, 2005, with exact dates and location to be determined as local arrangements are worked out. Motion was seconded by Tim Herrman and was passed. It was suggested that there could be a one-half day visit to FGIS in Kansas City.


7. Update on the 2004 International Quality Grains Conference. Dirk Maier reported on the progress of the program and provided a tentative program for the International Quality Grains Conference, which will be held July 19-22, 2004 in Indianapolis. He encouraged members to submit for one or two more speaker slots on the program and openings still exist for posters. Mike Montross is handling tabletop exhibits. GIPSA has contributed $5000 toward the cost of the program. Dirk has written two proposals, which were submitted by Bill Ravlin on behalf of NC-213 to NRI 61.0 Markets & Trade for $10,000, and NRI 71.1 Improving Food Quality for $15,000. Dirk is to be commended for all of the work done in organizing this conference.


8. Midterm project review, need for collaboration and future Anderson Grant RFP?s. The NCRA Review Committee wants to see more collaboration among participants and states. The committee discussed that the 2004 IQGC should be a very good example of collaboration between participants and states. The committee discussed the Anderson Team proposals in the past had had a low number of participants. Bob Smigelski indicated purpose of the Anderson Grants was to support research on grain quality and get people involved. They like to see students supported by the funds and have projects funded for research that industry can use. They like to see their funds seed a concept and then leverage support from other agencies or groups.


David Jackson stated that NC-213 should continue the team projects since NCRA is asking for more teamwork. Linda Mason moved to continue team project RFP?s but have them due in the summer. Tim Herrman seconded the motion. Motion passed.


9. NC-213 Annual Progress Report ? purpose and format. The 2002 Annual Report of Progress was created in HTML format and posted on the NC-213 website in PDF and HTML format. There were 189 hits, with 25 hits coming from search engines.


The committee seemed to have no suggestions for changing the current procedure. Tim Herrman said he likes the NC-213 Newsletter and its format and that it needs to be widely placed in Director?s Offices, and presumably in many offices where good publicity can be maintained.

10. Submission of SAES-422 Annual Report. SAES-422 requires an annual report within 60 days following the Annual meeting. The SAES-422 includes the following sections from NIMSS.


Accomplishments: In this section focus on intended outcomes and potential impacts. This information should be built around the activity‘‘‘‘s milestones, as they were identified in the original proposal. The report should also reflect on the items that stakeholders want to know, or want to see.


Impact Statements: In this section focus on intended outcomes and potential impacts. This information should be built around the activity‘‘‘‘s milestones, as they were identified in the original proposal. The report should also reflect on the items that stakeholders want to know, or want to see. Also, describe plans for the coming year in no more than one or two short paragraphs. Even though the description is the same as Accomplishments, the impact statements are intended to be short, descriptive statements focusing on specific impacts. NIMSS has room for five Impact Statements.


Publications: For Annual Reports list the publications for current year only (with the authors, title, journal series, etc.). If the list exceeds the maximum character limit below, an attachment file may be used. Publications: Max characters = 50000. In 2003, Donna Schenck-Hamlin gathered this information for the committee by using the publication database.


The committee discussed who should be involved in preparing this report. Don Wicklow felt that the Objective Chairs should be involved in this report. This opinion was given before we found out on March 9, 2004 that Bill Ravlin has in the past prepared this report and and will do so again in 2004. Once a draft is completed, Bill Ravlin will circulate it among NC-213 Officers and Objective Chairs for review and input before the final report is submitted to NIMSS.


The meeting was adjourned at 5:15 pm.

[Note: There was no NC-213 Executive Meeting held the next day as scheduled at 7:00 am because all of the business was completed in this Annual Meeting.] Chairman Dirk Maier had provided an advance Agenda with a nine page write up giving background discussion information for the agenda. This enabled a very effective use of committee time.

Respectfully submitted,
Marvin R. Paulsen ? Past Vice Chair
March 23, 2004

Objective A--Determine the effects of genetic traits, abiotic environmental conditions, and handling practices on the quality of cereals and oilseeds.


A method to develop a quantification of sphingolipids in soybeans without alteration of their chemical structure and to provide preliminary evidence reflecting the effects of composition (variety), maturity, and environmental conditions on sphingolipid contents of soybeans. Solvent partition and TLC purification was identified to be the most accurate sample preparation method for HPLC quantification.


ARS scientists in Manhattan, KS and in Peoria, IL, obtained near infrared spectra for corn kernels infected by the mycotoxin producers A. flavus and F. verticillioides, making it possible to correctly classify infected kernels contaminated with mycotoxins. These spectra were applied successfully in programming a high volume commercial optical grain sorter to reject aflatoxin- and fumonisin-contaminated kernels in combine harvested 2002 corn grown in Eastern Kansas and Central Illinois to produce an ‘‘accepted grain lot‘‘ conforming to FDA guidelines for use in human food.


Objective B-Assess the effects of microbial growth, insect infestation and handling on quality of cereals and oilseeds.


Data from three years of field tests of controlled aeration of wheat in Kansas were analyzed and a journal manuscript prepared. Automatic control of aeration based on ambient temperature alone is not always adequate for summer aeration in such warm, humid climates because conditions are commonly encountered where temperatures normally desirable for summer aeration (below 21 to 24°C) occur with humidity high enough that no cooling takes place. Forty-six years of historical weather data were studied to evaluate the effect of year-to-year weather variation on summer aeration management in Kansas.


The impact of fungal feeding insect infestations on detection of CO2 was monitored as part of on-going stored grain insect pilot bin studies during the summer of 2003. A methodology for quantifying the total amount of CO2 retained in the storage structure using a portable CO2 that confirms the feasibility of early detection of the onset of grain spoilage was developed. One storage tank containing semi-wet corn the on-set of grain spoilage was detected almost two weeks before it was detected with temperature cables. A preliminary mathematical model was developed.


Kansas State and Purdue Universities developed a common survey tool in order to gather data from 150 country elevators throughout seven U.S. Corn Belt states. Information gathered from state grain and feed association directories allowed a random sample of elevators to be drawn based on overall licensed warehouse storage capacity. The purpose of this study was to investigate how well country elevators were equipped to handle the segregation of incoming multiple grain types. Additionally, site-specific system simulation models were developed for the receiving operation of three elevator facilities. The models were validated with the collected data, and used to explore ?what if? grain segregation scenarios. For one facility, improvement plans made by one operations manager were modeled to quantify the envisioned changes.


Objective C - Quantify and define quality of cereals and oilseeds for various end-use markets.


A project developed a non-enzymatic preparative-scale synthetic method for dityrosine and 3-bromotyrosine. These standard compounds make detection of these structures much easier in the many biological systems in which they occur. A patent that describes a native peroxidase in the endosperm of wheat that causes formation of tyrosine crosslinks during the breadmaking process, was prepared.. The protein and gene structure of the peroxidase are illustrated in detail. This patent also illustrates the manipulation of the breadmaking process using free radical scavengers to affect the activity of this native enzyme.


A Study was conducted to evaluate the effects of handling equipment on commingling during grain transfer operations in the research elevator at the USDA-ARS Grain Marketing and Production Research Center in Manhattan, KS. White corn was moved first through selected pieces of cleaned elevator equipment followed by yellow corn through the same equipment without any special clean-out between the two operations. Grain flow rates ranged from 43 to 50 t/h. Commingling was calculated as the percentage of white kernels mixed in the yellow corn samples collected at selected time intervals during the second operation. Commingling started at levels above 1% during the first 38 sec or less and declined to levels below 0.5% after the first metric ton of grain transfer. The grain cleaner had the highest cumulative commingling at 0.24%, followed by the weighing scale at 0.22%, the pit and boot at 0.18%, and the grain scalper at 0.01%. For grain transfer in this elevator with the pit and boot, scale, and cleaner in the grain path, total possible commingling was 0.64%.


Field-grown hard red winter wheat Karl and soft red winter wheat Clark were harvested at 21 days after flowering and air-dried in the spike at 20 C for 2, 4, 8, 12, 24, 48, 96 h and until completely air-dried (one week). Fresh samples of Karl and Clark were also harvested and prepared immediately for microscopy. The methods used in this study can be used to investigate endosperm structural changes caused by adverse environmental stress.


A study was conducted to compare moisture meter readings to the 103°C 72-hr air oven reference method for naturally wet corn during the fall of 2002. A total of 178 samples were collected from 12 counties in Illinois. The oven moistures of the samples ranged from 12.6 to 39.6% wet basis. Each sample was tested by the Illinois Department of Agriculture in air ovens and in the Dickey-john GAC 2100, GAC 2000, and GAC II; Motomco 919, 919E, and 919ES; Steinlite SL 95, SB 900, SS 250, RC, RCT; and Burrows 700 moisture meters. Compared to the oven, most of the meters performed within the acceptable limits up to approximately 25% moisture content on combine and hand-shelled corn. Above 25% moisture, most of the meters read lower than the air oven on hand-shelled corn. Based on only one crop year with predominately hand-shelled samples no recommendations for changes in moisture meter calibrations could be made.


Soybeans were obtained from four crop years 1999 through 2002 from the USDA/ARS National Germplasm Lab at the University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign. Samples were scanned on a Perkin Elmer Spectrum One FT-NIR spectrophotometer. The instrument measured absorbance between 4000 per cm to 12000 per cm, with 8 per cm resolution. A total of 16 scans were averaged for each sample. The FT-NIR isoflavone calibration equations had a relatively low root mean square error of prediction (RMSEP) and root mean square error of cross-validation (RMSECV) for all three types of isoflavones. FT-NIR calibrations had an RMSEP of 295, 269 and 82 for the total of three forms of daidzin, genistin, and glycitin, respectively. The validation data set correlation coefficients (r) ranged from 0.85 to 0.88 for the total of the three forms of daidzin and genistin. Results indicate that the FT-NIR technique with ground samples can be useful in screening for isoflavones levels in soybeans.


The SPROC model, which calculates outputs and estimates a total value of processed products per bushel (EPV), has become a standard tool of breeders and others studying soybean markets. Annual national surveys coupled with the SPROC model have demonstrated consistent regional patterns with accompanying embedded value differences. The amount and relative direction of these differences, northern states versus central versus southern states, have changed very little over time. Forecasting composition on smaller geographic areas (such as county) is much less predictable, which is probably why processors try very hard to minimize basis premiums to areas they think may have better beans. The inherent variability of producer deliveries (from different fields and varieties in a local area) has been very stable through numerous sampling studies from 1983 ? present, as has been the variability among varieties grown at a given location.


Studies have indicated that the level of fumonisin B1 in corn-based foods was reduced significantly by extrusion processing as determined by chemical (HPLC) and biochemical (ELISA) assay methods. However, it is still unproven whether the toxicity or biological activity of FB1 is likewise destroyed. Therefore, there is still a need to determine the reduction of toxicity of FB1 in extruded corn based food products using in vitro and in vivo bioassay methods that include cell culture bioassays and feeding of extruded FB1 contaminated corn grits to rats in controlled feeding studies.


Objective D - Determine the economic impact of improving the quality of cereals and oilseeds.


The Iowa Grain Quality Initiative (IGQI) developed producer training and awareness materials that encourage the development of higher value grain markets in Iowa. In 2003 the corn stewardship poster project was expanded to include nine Midwestern states. Thirty-seven partners from university extension programs, corn producer organizations, grain handler associations, and three seed companies cooperated on the project that promoted the delivery of Market ChoicesSM corn to grain collection sites willing to accept it. Market ChoicesSM corn is corn that is not authorized but may be scientifically accepted in the European Union. Two posters were developed, 18?x24? (publication SP 161) and 8.5?x11? (publication SP 162), promoting the delivery of Market ChoicesSM grain to facilities that accept it. The posters used the National Corn Growers Association?s Know Where to GoSM service mark as the main theme. This phrase is recognized by over 85% of producers. The posters were distributed to 4,346 grain collection sites in the partner states. The 806 Extension offices in cooperating states received the posters. Pioneer distributed the small poster to 19,000 producers that purchased Market ChoicesSM hybrids. Dow AgroSciences purchased an additional 10,000 small posters for distribution to producers. The American Seed Trade Association?s (ASTA) Market ChoicesSM committee developed a sticker that elevators could use for producer correspondence to indicate their Market ChoicesSM grain receiving policy. The sticker was included in the poster mailing. A comprehensive web site, www.marketchoices.info, was created to disseminate information related to Market ChoicesSM grain and receive feedback. Future corn issues that require quick action by value chain participants will be more easily coordinated. IGQI provided information about the StarLinkTM corn settlement. Producers and Extension offices downloaded the StarLinkTM settlement information (2,278 downloads) and the StarLinkTM Situation publication (4,666 downloads) from the IGQI web site. The settlement documents enabled producers to file for a share of the $110,000,000 (plus accrued interest) class action suit settlement for producers of non-StarLinkTM corn from 1998 to 2002.


An Iowa grain company and Iowa State University created a guideline procedure for upgrading entry level quality management systems to ISO 9000-2000. An internal study in 2002 showed that $2 was returned for every $1 invested in the quality management system. The goal is total traceability from inbound receipt to outbound shipment. To date this has been achieved in units of 15,000 ? 20,000 bushels, but not to individual railcars or trucks. An electronic quality manual template was developed. After audit, scheduled for January 13-14, 2004, this template and its development will be made available in the public domain.
