winter wheat  

DEFINITION

  • A general term for wheat sown in the fall. The plants develop roots and leaves before winter. Winter wheat needs vernalization (a period of low temperatures, optimally 2–7 ° C), preferably in combination with a short day to form flower systems. It is harvested the following spring or summer after reaching full maturity.
