Semolina is a kind of flour. It is one of the kinds of flours that Italians use to make pasta.
Good cooking.

Semolina flour must be made from 100% Durum wheat. The best (and the most) Durum wheat in the world
is grown in North Dakota. Much of the wheat is exported to Italy, BUT in the last decade there have
been a number of farmer owned (co-op) companies that make pasta. One great brand is "Dakota
Growers". No, I do not have stock in the company (I wish!) but occasionally I mail the pasta to my
sister in PA. Lynn from Fargo

You have confused 'world' with 'USA'.
Canada, for example, produces about twice as much durum wheat as the US. Heck, Turkey and Syria each
produce more durum wheat than the US.
You're correct in that the bulk of the US crop is grown in North Dakota, but the quality is not as
high as some other exporting countries, such as Australia, whose product is more in demand in Italy.
