Why we depend on wheat
Answers
Answer:
To satisfy our hunger as wheat is available in plenty
Wheat was one of the first domesticated food crops and for 8000 years has been the basic staple food of major civilizations in Europe, West Asia, and North Africa.
There are more varieties of wheat than any other cereal crops - about 5,000 cultivars of bread wheat in current use (about 35,000 cultivars have been developed throughout history, but the vast majority of these are no longer cultivated on a commercial scale).
Wheat is cultivated in every continent except Antarctica. It is grown at a wide elevational range from 260 m below sea level (Jordan Valley) up to 4,000 m (Tibetan plateau). [Kew 2013]
Because wheat is such a versatile crop, it is being harvested somewhere in the world every month of the year.
World trade for wheat is greater than for any other cereal. The only other agricultural commodity traded more than wheat are soybeans and soybean product .
Accounting for a fifth of humanity's food, wheat is a second only to rice as a source of calories in the diets of developing country consumers, and it is first as a source of protein
An estimated 1.2 billion poor people depend on wheat, a crop that is particularly vulnerable to climate change.
Demand for wheat in the developing world is projected to increase 60% by 2050. At the same time, climate-change-induced temperature increases are likely to reduce wheat production in developing countries by 20–30%.
