wheat harvest
Cutting the crop
Wheat harvest is the annual gathering of mature wheat from fields, typically occurring in late summer.
The phrase refers both to the activity itself and the period when it takes place: The whole town helped during wheat harvest.
It can also mean the total yield: This year's wheat harvest exceeded expectations.
