The forest grains and oils are an important part of China's grain and oil resources. They are derived from woody plants, which have the advantages of not occupying arable land resources, high nutritional value, and being rich in many bioactive substances, and also have good economic and ecological benefits, and have enormous development potential. This article mainly introduced the resource status, distribution, componential and functional characteristics, processing and utilization status of protein, starch, and oilseed woody plants. In response to the problems existed in the development of the forest grain and oil industry, corresponding strategies and suggestions were proposed, which could provide reference for the development of the forest grain and oil industry.
