I am a female wheat farmer from Marathwada, India. In a typical day, I will wake up and tend to the crops, planting if it is spring, and harvesting if it is fall. I do a majority of the work by hand, and it is hard work without much pay. Being able to sustain my family is very important to me, since I am normally only able to grow enough food to get by on.]]> 2021-03-01 15:56:54 UTC https://padlet.com/23lagona/s52tkvqfo00sljsv/wish/1253835469 23lagona https://padlet.com/23lagona/s52tkvqfo00sljsv/wish/1253837152 - India is the 2nd largest producer of wheat in the world next to China

This greatly concerns me because I can only maintain enough crop for my family, and if the wheat were to fail, my family would be without food.]]> 2021-03-01 15:58:19 UTC https://padlet.com/23lagona/s52tkvqfo00sljsv/wish/1253843741 23lagona https://padlet.com/23lagona/s52tkvqfo00sljsv/wish/1253844989 - Center India and northeastern China
- I need to be in a place with good sunlight and temperate climates, with decent soil as wheat is versatile
- Wheat and other crops are planted in the spring, then harvested in the fall
