    Product Highlights

    There’s a reason why Minot Milling’s dedicated durum mill processes 22,000 bushels daily. Durum is the top wheat choice for making premium pasta products worldwide. It’s important to understand how durum’s unique properties impact the quality of the deriving goods.
    Although it only represents 5-8% of worldwide wheat production, durum remains the second most cultivated wheat behind common bread wheat. Most US durum comes from the Northern Plains region, with North Dakota producing nearly three-fourths of the crop. Minot Milling understands the importance of quality durum and its impact on the product.
