What is wheat

1. What is

Wheat is a general term for wheat plants, an annual herb. It is one of the three major cereals in the world and has a long history of cultivation. The caryopsis can be ground into powder to make steamed buns, bread, etc., to provide the necessary nutrients.

2. Morphological characteristics

The stem of wheat stands straight, with a height generally between 60 and 100 cm and a diameter generally between 5 and 7 mm, which is relatively thin. The leaves are long lanceolate, relatively slender, and are spike-shaped inflorescences that stand upright on the stem and are about 5 to 10 cm long.

3. Growth Environment

Wheat grows in a relatively deep and thick soil layer, which is conducive to retaining water, soil and nutrients, allowing the plants to thrive. It is a long-day crop and requires 8 to 12 hours of sunlight a day, so wheat is generally planted in the open air on a large scale and is distributed over a wide area.
