　　A farm is always a very busy place．One of the busiest things is when the farmer is getting the land ready to grow plants．

　　If the farmer is going to grow wheat, he has to turn the ground over first．The farmer drives up and down the paddock on a tractor．

　　When the ground is ready, the farmer sows the seeds．He does this with a machine that the tractor pulls along．Now, one man and a machine can do as much a day as twenty men used to do without a machine．

　　After the wheat has been sown, the farmer keeps a lookout for rain．Wheat needs a rain and warm sunny days to make it grow．When the wheat has grown, it turns to a lovely golden colour．

　　When the wheat is fully grown, you can see the seeds on the wheat plants．These have to be cut off and put in bags or big trucks to be taken to a factory where they are made into flour．

　　It’s a very busy time on farm when the wheat is being cut．Everyone helps so that all the wheat can be taken from the paddocks before the rain comes．

　　If heavy rain falls, the farmer must wait for the ground to dry out before the machine can cut the wheat．

　　Farmers always have a lot to do through the year．
