20/02/14: A ghostly silhouette over Brooklyn; European mill report; who doesn't like butterscotch?

Yesterday, British daily newspaper the Daily Mail published news of a grain elevator abandoned in 1965 in Red Hook, Brooklyn, US.

Built in 1922, the 29-foot long and 12-story high structure was used for the washing, drying and storing of grain from the Great Lakes, before it was loaded onto freight ships and delivered to breweries, distilleries and flour mills.

Ireland based international market data source Research and Markets, recently announced the new addition of its “Grain Mill Product Manufacturers (European)" report.

Harnessing a wealth of financial information, the report provides a detailed overview of the European Grain Mill Product Manufacturers market and delivers a comprehensive individual analysis on the top 400 companies.
Report available here. 

A recent study published in this month's Animal Feed Science and Technology journal has determined that butterscoth is the most favourable flavour when added to creep feed. Creep feed is a method of supplementing the diet of young livestock. 

As part of the study, which focused on piglets, five different flavoured creeps (toffee, apricot, butterscotch, apple and red fruit) were added to the creep feed.
