Atta (wheat flour) is one of the staple and basic foods to Indians not only that, it is basic food ingredients for all the men lives in the world.

 Wheat is grown in most parts of the world, from near-arctic to near-equatorial latitudes. It is the most important crop among the cereals by area planted and is followed in importance by corn, barley and sorghum. The amount of wheat traded internationally exceeds that of all other grains. Furthermore, the protein and caloric content of wheat is greater than that of any other food crop. Most wheat is consumed in the form of baked goods, mainly bread; therefore, wheat grains must be milled to produce flour prior to consumption. Wheat is also used as an ingredient in compound feedstuffs, starch production and as a feed stock in ethanol production.

Atta is manufactured from wheat which is cultivated in the winter session or just before it. Though there is development of tissue culture base seeds which can be cultivated throughout the year. Wheat has been collected from wheat field and store it in the godown and it has gone through for further processing.

Chakki plants are only used to produce whole wheat atta with full fibers with the same aroma of stones and taste you get from local street vendors. Rollers are used to damage the starch and extract fibers from the wheat flour, which is used in bakery products like bread, biscuits etc. The processing of whole wheat to wheat flour is generally concentrated in a few large mills. The resulting flour is used to make bread, biscuits, pasta, and other products. Because of its widespread geographic distribution, acceptance, stability, and versatility, wheat flour is a suitable vehicle for delivering micronutrients to mankind
