Wheat is second only to rice as a source of calories for people in developing countries, and it is the primary source of protein. Wheat is an especially critical 'staff of life' for the 2.5 billion wheat-consuming poor - mean, women and children who live on less than US $2 per day - and provides vital income for approximately 30 million poor wheat producers and their families.
