Cultivation

Processing suitability — soft wheat

Triticum aestivum L.

The technological potential of soft wheat grain is determined by its ability to form a high-quality gluten complex from gliadin and glutenin proteins, which ensures baking properties.

In the reference 38 varieties crop Bread wheat, where this is mentioned in the description.

Key indicators of soft wheat suitability are the quantity and quality of gluten, measured by the gluten deformation index, protein content, and physicochemical characteristics of the endosperm. Grain vitreousness ranges from mealy to fully vitreous, determining milling properties and flour yield.

The rheological properties of dough are assessed using instruments to determine stability and water absorption capacity. The technological potential of a variety, which is genetically determined, is influenced by growing conditions and negative factors such as grain sprouting or damage by pests, for example, the sunn pest (Eurygaster integriceps).

Soft wheat is distinguished from durum wheat by a less hard endosperm, which allows for finer flour production, as well as specific gluten characteristics. These features make soft wheat the primary raw material for the baking industry, unlike pasta production, which requires raw materials with different protein properties.
