Humans produce more maize (also known as corn) than any other grain in the world, at 792 million metric tons (all values from the year 2007). Although maize is not a main source of human food, it is used extensively as animal fodder and as a source of corn ethanol.
A close second to maize is the production of rice (659 metric tons), and the third most produced cereal by weight is wheat (606 metric tons). Rice is especially important to Asian cuisine and food consumption, since it grows well in wet, tropical climates and yields a lot of caloric value. Wheat is used in many common everyday European food products such as bread and crackers.
All other cereals - including barley, millet, oats, and buckwheat - are produced at such low quantities compared to the top three cereals that they are vastly less important in terms of production (<140 metric tons).
