Trigo Limpio ({{IPA|es|ˈtɾiɣo ˈlimpjo}}) were a Spanish musical trio popular in Spain in the 1970s and 1980s. It was originally formed by {{ill|Amaya Saizar|es}}, Iñaki de Pablo and Luis Carlos Gil. In Spanish, the expression literally means clean wheat, figuratively someone who is honest and transparent.

The band represented Televisión Española in the sixth edition of the OTI Festival 1977 with the song "{{Lang|es|Rómpeme, mátame|italics=no}}" getting the fourth place. Three years later, they represented Spain in the Eurovision Song Contest 1980 with the entry "Quédate esta noche". By the time of their Eurovision participation, Amaya Saizar had been replaced by Patricia Fernández.

Patricia Fernández died on 27 September 2016, at the age of 62.{{cite news |title=Fallece Patricia Fernández, vocalista femenina de Trigo Limpio |url=https://eurovision-spain.com/fallece-patricia-fernandez-vocalista-femenina-de-trigo-limpio/ |access-date=13 November 2023 |publisher=Eurovision Spain |date=29 September 2016}} Luis Carlos Gil died on 11 November 2023, at the age of 72.{{cite news |title=Fallece Luis Carlos Gil, cantante del grupo donostiarra Trigo Limpio |url=https://www.diariovasco.com/gente-estilo/fallecio-luis-carlos-gil-cantante-grupo-donostiarra-20231113065215-nt.html |access-date=13 November 2023 |publisher=El Diario Vasco |date=13 November 2023}}
