Winter Wheat Harvest Dates
When winter wheat harvesting is underway across most of the United States, producers start up their combines, and then hit the fields to begin the winter wheat harvest. Winter wheat harvest dates vary across the United States, but this depends on a number of variables. Winter wheat is typically planted at the end of September through November and harvested in summer or the early autumn of the next year. In some places, winter-wheat crops fully 'complete' in a year's time, right before harvest. Winter wheat also typically yields more product than spring wheat.
