Info About Wheat Farming
Farmers start by loosening soil with simple tools. They work compost into the ground. Next they drop seeds in straight lines. Sun warms soil and rain soaks it to help sprout. Patience guides each step.
Farmers water shoots at dawn and dusk. Weeds steal water from young sprouts. Bugs harm tender shoots. Farmers walk fields every day. They pull grass and set traps for pests.
Stalks turn gold in fall. Farmers bring in combines. Machines cut stalks and free the grain. Workers clean the kernels and move them into bins. The stored grain heads to mills and becomes flour for bread and pasta.
