Judgment axis

Key judgment

Item IdentityAllium genus vegetables propagated vegetatively by bulbs, managed as Allium wakegi Araki in domestic agricultural fields
Taxonomy PrinciplesSimultaneously store the domestic Operational Name and Kew's A. × proliferum synonym relationship.
Key roleFresh scallions, scallion kimchi, seasoning, school meals, dining out, HMR, frozen, dried ingredients
Harvesting principleEvaluate variety, bulb lineage, leaf length, leaf color, leaf sheath thickness, uniformity, sphericity, and Buyer's intended use together.
Product separationSeparate bulbs, fresh chives, root attachment, sorting, washing, trimming, cutting, for kimchi, freezing, and drying.
Separation of similar itemsClassification of Shallots, Leeks, Leeks, Onions, Garlic and Taxon, Propagation Methods, Edible Parts, and Market Roles
Domestic statisticsNationwide exclusive cultivation area and production volume of scallions: To be entered after verification of official raw data.
Official cultivation characteristicsNongsaroo: Growth 15~20℃, Germination 5~25℃ (variable temperature), pH 6.0
Reproductive characteristicsNongsaroo: Crops generally propagated vegetatively using bulbs
Example of a writing typeNongsaroo presents examples of open-field autumn cultivation involving sowing in August–September and harvesting in October–November, citing Yecheon and Boseong as examples of major cultivation regions.
Quality RiskLeaf tip blight, leaf color variation, lodging, yellowing, diseases, bulb unevenness, soil erosion, wilting
Processing riskTrim loss · Washing loss · Cutting yield · Green onion kimchi raw material specifications · Freezing · Drying quality deviation
Operating PrinciplesSeed-bulb–Production–Fresh Lot–Wash/Cut–Kimchi/Processing–Buyer RFQ
Final goalEstablishment of a dedicated scallion supply chain traceable from seed lines to delivery and repurchase
1. Plant Identity & Product Master

Plant Identity

Basic fields

Scallion Registration Criteria

Korean nameScallions
English nameWakegi onion / Wakegi
Domestic agricultural scientific namesAllium wakegi Araki
Kew relationship nameAllium × wakegi Araki — synonym for Allium × proliferum
Kew-related hybridA. cepa × A. fistulosum
classificationAmaryllidaceae · Allium
Edible partsStem, leaves, lower leaf sheath, bulb part
Reproductive partbulb (scale bulb)
Non-edible · Separate managementRoots, dead leaves, diseases, rotten bulbs, sorting residues
Major harvesting stagesYoung scallions / Fresh scallions / For kimchi / For processing / For seed bulbs
Basic product formRoot-on·Trimmed·Washed·Whole·Cut·Kimchi Raw·Frozen·Dried
Basic processing stageSorting → Washing → Trim → Cutting → Salting · Kimchi · Freezing · Drying
Basic useGreen onion kimchi, seasoning, soup, stew, school meals, dining out, HMR, freeze, dried
Similarity PrincipleGreen onions, shallots, leeks, and onions are separate Plant/Product Entities

The Rural Development Administration's 2020 data on scallions clearly identifies the scientific name as Allium wakegi, the utilitarian parts as the stem and leaves, and the planting part as the seed bulb. ( Nongsaroo )

Kew currently treats Allium × wakegi as a synonym of Allium × proliferum. Therefore, MarketHub lists both the Operational Taxon and the Kew Taxonomic Status alongside domestic agricultural data names without arbitrarily deleting them. ( Plants of the World Online )

Since data confirming that the pesticide residue classification system at Food Safety Korea treats scallions as one of the representative crops of leafy and stem vegetables is available, the pesticide residue safety dataset directly verifies the relevant standards for scallions without arbitrarily inheriting values ​​from other Allium vegetables.

The National Agricultural Products Quality Management Service presents HS code 0703 in its examples regarding country of origin labeling as covering onions, chives, garlic, leeks, and other Allium vegetables (fresh or chilled). However, since this is a four-digit range, it does not represent export and import statistics for chives alone. ( National Agricultural Products Quality Management Service )
