spring wheat

Spring wheat is a type of wheat that is sown in the spring and harvested in late summer or fall. This contrasts with winter wheat, which is planted in the autumn and harvested the following spring or summer. Spring wheat is typically grown in regions with severe winters where winter wheat cannot survive. It thrives in areas with longer summer days, allowing it to mature by autumn. Hard red spring wheat, for example, is cultivated in parts of Canada and the northern United States. Wheat itself is a cereal grass with edible grains, and different varieties are used for various products like bread, pasta, cakes, and crackers.12345
