Developing countries accounted for more than 1/2 of wheat production in 2010, compared to 1/4th in 1960. Individuals have 2 sets of fields - one spring wheat belt and winter wheat belt. The two regions require the same machinery, so equipment costs are high. Wheat is grown to a considerable extent for international trade and the world leading export. The US and Canada account for half the world's wheat exports.   
Crops: Wheat, corn, oats, barley, rice, and millet.
