wheat seed
Future flour source
The seed of the wheat plant, used for planting new crops or processed into flour for food.
Wheat seed refers specifically to kernels selected and stored for sowing rather than consumption: The farmer set aside wheat seed for next spring's planting.
The term emphasizes the grain's role in agriculture rather than as a finished product.
