Wheat

Wheat is an item obtained by farming or found in dungeon chests. Wheat was added to Indev on the 6th of February, 2010. Seeds for growing wheat are obtained by breaking Tall Grass. Wheat can be crafted into bread, and is a necessary ingredient for cake and cookies.

Harvesting wheat drops 0 to 3 seeds that can be replanted to produce more crops. This makes farming an easy, reliable source of food. The player should keep in mind that hopping on wheat will trample it, causing it to drop before being fully grown.(Walking on the crops used to do this as well, but this is no longer the case as of version 1.1.0) As mobs may also cause this, it is advised to fence off the area as a precaution. Wheat may be used to breed Cows, Chickens, Sheep, Pigs, and Mooshrooms via first herding two of them together and then right clicking them with the wheat to begin "Love Mode." Wheat may be planted in The Nether, but it will grow at a slow pace since water can not be placed to hydrate the Farmland.
