Wheat is one of the oldest and most essential cereal crops in human history, originating from the Fertile Crescent and now cultivated across the globe. In India, the fertile regions of Punjab, Haryana, Madhya Pradesh, and Uttar Pradesh produce high-quality varieties, with Sharbati and Lokwan being among the most sought-after. Wheat grains are small, oval to elliptical, golden-brown kernels that form the basis for countless food products.
Rich in carbohydrates, dietary fiber, and plant protein, wheat is a versatile grain processed into whole wheat flour (atta), refined flour (maida), semolina (sooji), and other food-grade products. It plays a critical role in the diets of billions, forming the foundation for bread, pasta, roti, biscuits, cakes, and noodles.

Application
Wheat is a fundamental ingredient in both traditional and modern food systems. In its whole or processed form, wheat is used to produce flour for bakery items like bread, cookies, pastries, and cakes, as well as staple foods such as roti, naan, and parathas in Indian households. Its semolina variant is used for preparing upma, pasta, and sweets, while bran and germ are valuable for dietary fiber and health foods. With rising health consciousness, wheat-based products like multigrain flours and wheat germ are gaining popularity in global markets.
Beyond human consumption, wheat is also used in brewing, starch production, biofuel, and as livestock feed. Its nutritional profile and economic viability make it an indispensable commodity in international trade.
Storage Condition
Store in cool, dry, well-ventilated facilities free from pest infestation. Maintain relative humidity below 65% and storage temperature below 25°C to preserve grain quality and prevent mold or spoilage.
