'''Grain''' is a category of food. Different grains have different properties.   
'''Grain''' is a category of food in Vintage Story, provided by various grain crops. Different grains have different properties. Although the {{ll|cassava|cassava}} plant is not grown like other grain crops, its use in cooking and the type of satiety it provides is highly similar to that of grains.

All grains can be found growing as wild crops, dependent on climate. To find rice, amaranth, and sunflower, the player will likely need to travel far south of the default Temperate spawn.  Flax generates in Temperate areas as well as Warm spawns.
All grains can be found growing as wild crops, depending on climate. Flax generates in temperate as well as warm areas.  


Small patches of grain crops can be found while exploring, in areas with the following [[Temperature#Effect_on_plants|temperature]], [[Weather#Precipitation|precipitation]], and [[World_generation#Tree_Generation|forestation]].

== Cultivation ==


== Cultivation == <!--T:3-->
All grains may be {{ll|farming|farmed}}. Different crops have different tolerances for temperature, ripening speeds, and fertilizer usage. In general, rye is the most cold-tolerant crop while rice is the most heat-tolerant grain. Sunflower is the fastest to grow while rice takes the longest. Most grain crops consume nitrogen ('''N''') from the soil, while flax and rice consume potassium ('''K'''). Amaranth uses the least fertilizer relative to other grains.

== Usage ==


== Usage ==
Grains are primarily used to feed the player or to feed {{ll|Animal husbandry|domesticated animals}}. {{ll|Flax|Flax}} is a special case, where it is usually grown for the {{ll|flax fibers|fiber}} it provides and the grain is a by-product of the process.


=== Food ===
=== Food ===
* Grain may be eaten without cooking.  Rice provides the most [[satiety]], while flax provides the least.
* Grain may be {{ll|cooking|cooked}} to create a meal that gives higher satiety and pauses hunger. {{ll|porridge|Porridge}} requires at least 2 matching grain items, in a cooking pot.
* Grain may be ground in a {{ll|quern|quern}} to make flour.
** Flour may be crafted with water to create [[dough]], which may be baked into {{ll|bread|bread}} or {{ll|pie|pies}} using a {{ll|clay oven|clay oven}}.
** Most types of flour may be fermented to make ale, and further distilled to make whisky.  Twice-distilled alcohol may be used to craft {{ll|Bandage|alcohol-soaked bandages}}, for significant healing.


=== Animal Husbandry ===
Grains may be eaten raw to provide grain {{ll|satiety|satiety}}, but {{ll|cooking|cooking}} the grain is generally more effective. Most grains provide 60 satiety, but rice provides slightly more (75 satiety) while flax provides significantly less (30 satiety).
 
Grains can be turned into {{ll|Meal|meals}}, specifically {{ll|porridge|porridge}} or ground into flour at a {{ll|quern|quern}}. Flour can then be mixed with water into {{ll|dough|dough}}, which can then be baked into {{ll|bread|bread}} or {{ll|pie|pies}} using a {{ll|clay oven|clay oven}}.
 
=== Alcohol ===
 
Grains can be {{ll|Alcohol brewing|fermented}} into {{ll|Ale|ale}}, and this ale can be further {{ll|Alcohol brewing#Distillation|distilled}} into spirits.
 
=== Animal husbandry ===
 
Grain can also be used as animal feed in both large and small {{ll|trough|troughs}}. Because of their long shelf-life, grains make very good animal feed. Flax grain is especially well-suited to this due to its lower satiety compared to other grains, since animal feed does not take satiety into account.

When flax is harvested, it also drops {{ll|flax fibers|flax fibers}}, which are used to create {{ll|twine|flax twine}} and {{ll|linen|linen}}.

The grains have some of the longest shelf lives of any food items at 90 in-game days. {{ll|Storage vessels|Storage vessels}} are best at storing grain and when used in a {{ll|Room#Cellar|cellar}}, grain can last for multiple years.
