Enemies of Wheat
Wherever wheat grows there are many enemies that attack it, reducing yields or even destroying the crop. The worst enemies are diseases—caused by fungi, bacteria, or viruses—insects, and weeds. In most regions fungal diseases are the greatest threat to wheat crops. Many problems are controlled by using resistant varieties or by using herbicides and pesticides to destroy or deter the invading enemy.
