Forment is the traditional Catalan word for wheat. Forments are part of the agricultural landscape and rural history of Formentera, where cereals were a staple food for generations.
The name Formentera itself has traditionally been linked to "forment" and the Latin "frumentaria," referring to wheat or a land of grain. This interpretation is included in the Diccionari Català-Valencià-Balear.
Although the exact origin of the island's name remains a subject of debate among specialists, the relationship between Formentera, the forment (a type of land) and cereal farming is part of the island's history and traditional culture.
