Why Waxy? To get the functional benefits of nearly 100% amylopectin or waxy starch. Waxy works especially well as a thickener or stabilizer in pies, soups, baby food and other processed foods and industrial materials such as paper adhesives. Waxy dent contains almost 100% amylopectin. Regular dent corn contains 75% amylopectin and 25% amylose. Amylopectin is a branched form of starch. Amylose is an unbranched or linear form.
<br>
<br>There is very little production of open market waxy corn. Most waxy is produced by farmers under contract directly or indirectly to millers.
<br>
<br>Test weights and protein levels generally exceed those of yellow dent corns with similar maturity.
<br>
<br>Clarkson Grain offers one white and two yellow waxy hybrids. We provide clients samples of waxy hybrids to test in their plant or at a preferred lab. From those results, we select one or more that work best for you.
<br>
<br>If you want waxy, we recommend testing followed by contracting. To get appropriate seed allocation and enlist better farmers, we like to start contracting farm production on December 1 of each year.
