Wheat Cultivation and Harvesting Wheat is mostly sown during the cool and moist part of the year. Sowing is done with a grill at the rate of 81 kg per hectare though this is a wasteful method. Other farmers practice broadcasting or dibbling. Manuring at or before the time of sowing ensures that there is a good harvest. The crop grows through winter and spring and by summer, the straws appear golden and the grain is ready.
Harvesting is done by a combine harvester.
