Production & Sourcing

Oats are a type of cereal grain that is primarily grown in temperate regions such as North America and Europe. The main oat-producing countries around the world include the United States, Canada, Russia, and Australia. Oats are typically grown on large-scale farms and are harvested in late summer or early fall.

The production process of oats begins with planting the oat seeds, which are small and light. Oats are typically planted in early spring and take about 100 days to reach maturity. They are suited to a variety of climates and can withstand colder temperatures than other grains.

After planting, the oats grow into tall, slender plants with long stems and tapered leaves. As they mature, the starches in the oat kernels convert to sugars, giving oats their distinct sweet flavor. Once the oats reach maturity, they are harvested using a combine harvester, which cuts the matured plants and separates the oats from the straw.

The harvested oats are then dried using specialized equipment to reduce their moisture content and prevent any spoilage. The dried oats are then stored in silos until they are ready to be processed.

During processing, the oat kernels are separated from the husks and other impurities. The oat kernels are then steamed and flattened to produce rolled oats, a common type of oat often used in breakfast cereals and oatmeal. Alternatively, some oats are left whole or chopped into pieces, known as steel-cut or Irish oats, which have a chewier texture.
