Any wheat farmers here? When will Ukraine have to plant to have crop this year?

If, hopefully, Putin is gone in time, The US could send some wheat farmers and equipment.
The horror in Ukraine is bad enough by itself, but the coming famine will kill countless more.

1. Winter wheat is planted in the fall and

spring wheat is planted in the spring.

2. There are two wheat crops in Ukraine -- a fall planting of winter wheat,

which is harvested in June, and a spring planting that begins in mid-March.

3. Not real sure, but think spring wheat can be planted late

and still get a harvest. I'm sure someone else has that info.

4. Now

Winter wheat goes in around October 15th. Summer wheat goes in around March 15th. Right now Winter wheat's in the fields, though I would not be at all surprised if Ukrainians are torching their fields to keep them out of the hands of the Russians.

5. Most of their wheat was planted in the fall as winter wheat.

I doubt much summer wheat will be planted given the war.

In North America, 75-80 percent our crop was in the fields last fall.

Therefore, we will not see a larger crop until July 2023.

Corn is planted in the spring, so we may be seeing a lot more corn bread soon.
