Which code does this activity belong in?

Wheat farming establishments grow wheat or produce wheat seeds as their primary activity. This code is distinguished from other grain farming, which covers barley, rye, milo, sorghum, oats, and wild rice, as well as mixed grain and oilseed operations where no single crop type dominates production. Wheat farmers should not be confused with soybean or oilseed producers, dry pea and bean growers, corn farmers, or rice farmers, each of which operates in separate commodity classifications.
