0. Executive Summary
Judgment axis | detail |
| Item Identity | Wheat is a grain of the genus Triticum of the family Poaceae, and in Korea, common wheat Triticum aestivum L. is the basic plant entity of major edible wheat. |
| Key role | It is a processing-oriented grain that, rather than the raw grain itself, is converted into flour, semolina, and powder through milling, which then connects to various industries such as noodles, bread, confectionery, alcoholic beverages, and animal feed. |
| Difference from the previous item | No.001 While the cooking and taste of polished rice are key factors, for wheat, milling yield, protein, ash content, gluten, and suitability for noodle and bread-making are the key elements of trading and processing competitiveness. |
| Harvesting principle | Check heading, flowering, and ripening status, rainfall during the harvest season, seed moisture, and damage from germination, mold, foreign matter, and diseases together. |
| Product separation | Wheat for seeds, harvested grain, dried and stored grain, whole wheat, wheat for milling, flour, semolina, wheat bran and germ, and raw materials for processed foods are managed as separate products. |
| Korean production | According to the Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs' 2nd Basic Plan for Wheat Industry Development, the cultivation area of domestic wheat in 2025 was 9,072 ha, the production volume was 37,886 tons, and the yield per 10a was 418 kg/10a. |
| production base | In the same plan, by 2025, there are 112 specialized wheat production complexes, 13 wheat drying and storage facilities, and a storage capacity of 15,800 tons. |
| dependence on imports | In 2024, domestic wheat demand was 4,508 thousand tons, Korean production was 37 thousand tons, and imports were 4,673 thousand tons. The major importing countries for edible wheat were the United States, Australia, and Canada, with these three countries accounting for 99.7% of the total. |
| Policy characteristics | In accordance with the “Wheat Industry Promotion Act,” the 2nd Basic Plan for Wheat Industry Promotion (2026–2030) is being implemented, with demand-based production, improvement of quality and distribution, and expansion of consumption as the core policy pillars. |
| AX Core | Connects Plot–Variety–Cultivation–Harvest–Drying–Storage–Quality Inspection–Milling–Processing–RFQ–Delivery–Repurchase based on Lot. |
| Final goal | Wheat is not managed as a simple raw grain, but is operated as a supply chain intelligence connecting production, quality, milling, processing, RFQ, and repurchase . |
