detail

Item IdentityArugula is Eruca sativa Mill., an accepted species of the genus Eruca in the family Brassicaceae, according to Kew POWO. ( Plants of the World Online )
Scientific name managementSince various past and alternative scientific names exist, such as Eruca vesicaria subsp. sativa, the Taxonomy Version by Source is saved together. ( Plants of the World Online )
Growth typeKew describes Eruca sativa as an annual plant. ( Plants of the World Online )
Edible coreThe main products are young leaves, pre-mature leaves, tender leaf stalks, and stems, and are used in salads, pizza, pasta, meat dishes, sandwiches, dining out, meal kits, and fresh-cuts.
Quality ValueArugula must include not only leaf size, notch, color, and tenderness compared to common leafy vegetables, but also its unique spiciness, bitterness, and aroma in the Buyer Specification.
Product separationRegular arugula, young leaves, baby leaf, mature leaves, washed products, fresh-cut, salad mix, pizza/restaurant use, and private label (PB) small packaging are managed as separate products.
Separation of similar itemsAlthough it belongs to the Brassica family like kale, broccoli, and napa cabbage, it is a distinct species. 'Wild Arugula' is not grouped as the same species based solely on its commercial name; instead, its scientific name and seeds are verified.
Harvesting principleCreate a Lot by checking leaf length, width, notch angle, color, year, aroma, spiciness, bolting, yellowing, wounds, pests and diseases, and harvest cycle.
Production characteristicsActual cultivation methods, such as short-term young leaf production, whole-plant harvesting, and leaf cutting/regenerative harvesting, are managed separately by farm. Detailed optimal temperatures and cultivation durations are entered after verification using domestic public cultivation data.
Domestic statisticsThe confirmed independent national statistical values ​​for the 2025 or latest national arugula cultivation area and production volume could not be confirmed in this official search. They are not arbitrarily estimated and will be maintained for future verification.
Domestic market characteristicsArugula is managed as an item where Buyer Specifications tailored to specific uses—such as salads, premium dining, fresh-cut products, online small packaging, and meal kits—are important, rather than as a bulk staple vegetable.
Safety ManagementThe detailed domestic pesticide residue classifications and individual MRLs for arugula are linked to the Lot Safety Dataset after further verification using the latest raw data from the Food Safety Korea website.
Operating PrinciplesConnect Species–Variety–Leaf Stage–Farm–Harvest–Lot–Fresh-cut–Buyer–RFQ–Reorder.
Final goalConnects RFQs and repurchases from farmers, greenhouse cultivation, sorting/washing, salads/fresh-cut products, hotels/restaurants, meal kits/HMR, distribution, and private brand buyers.
