Weak gluten wheat is suitable for making biscuits， pastries and other foods. With the continuous growth of consuming biscuits and other foods in China， the demand of weak gluten wheat is gradually increasing. In recent years， the import volume of weak gluten wheat in China has remained high， and it is imperative to improve the yield and quality of weak gluten wheat in China. The current status of weak gluten wheat and the industrial problems in China including insufficient varieties with high-quality， incomplete system of evaluation， poor quality of weak gluten， need for optimizing cultivation techniques， insufficient adaptability of supporting cultivation techniques， and the dependence of importation were analyzed based on the distribution of dominant production areas for weak gluten wheat in China and the achievements of regional scientific research units to enhance the competitiveness of weak gluten wheat and promote the sustainable development of the weak gluten wheat industry in China. We need to optimize the evaluation system， strengthen basic research， breed excellent varieties， and promote innovation and application of cultivation techniques to address these challenges. Therefore， it is proposed to strengthen the basic researches about weak gluten wheat industry， optimize the breeding process of varieties， innovate cultivation techniques， and accelerate the pace of industrial application.
