Wheat is one of the most important agricultural crops cultivated by farmers across the world. The character featured here represents a farmer displaying a single harvested wheat stalk with its full head of grain seeds.

Surprising Facts About Wheat Agriculture

A single wheat head can contain between fifty and eighty individual grains, which are milled into flour for bread and pasta. Wheat plants change color from bright green during spring growth to warm golden yellow when ready for harvest.
