The Global Miller blog is an online offshoot of Milling and Grain magazine (formerly Grain and Feed Milling Technology magazine). While the monthly magazine covers milling issues in-depth, the Global Miller takes a lighter approach.
Our columnists have a keen eye for the most interesting, relevant and (let's face it) bizarre milling stories from across the world. Each weekday we scour the internet for top-notch news and package it for your perusal in one neat daily digest. Click here for today's news
