I'm trying to decide whether to make a wheat or sugar cane farm. I want to know whether wheat drops 0 - 2 or 1 wheat when it is harvested. The wiki does not say.

Wheat and sugarcane are used for different things. You'll probably need both, not one or the other.– ChargingPunJan 8, 2013 at 14:26

I am on a server with the ability to sell as stack of wheat for 2500 dollars and a stack of sugar cane for 3000 dollars. I have a 14 by 9 by 3 area to dedicate to a farm, so I'm wondering which I should do.– WilliamJan 8, 2013 at 14:28

Without doing any math on it ... I would suggest that you go with the sugarcane farm. It grows ridiculously fast, and doesn't require anything for maintenance.– ChargingPunJan 8, 2013 at 14:30

Does it grow any faster then wheat?– WilliamJan 8, 2013 at 14:31

With sugar can you plant 1 block and 2 grow off of it, which lets you harvest 2 sugarcane. With wheat you plant a seed and it needs to go through all the growth stages (there are 8) before you can harvest 1 wheat. So while it may grow at the same rate, the time to be able to harvest 1 sugarcane vs 1 wheat would be a lot shorter.– ChargingPunJan 8, 2013 at 14:36

Fully grown wheat drops 1 wheat, and 0-3 seeds when harvested. If it is not fully grown it only drops one seed.

Thank you. Unfortunately, there are multiple articles dealing with wheat, so it is hard to find the one with the information I am looking for.– WilliamJan 8, 2013 at 14:24

6in his defense it is only clearly stated on the "Wheat Seeds" page, which is a little silly. Jan 8, 2013 at 14:25

3@Paralytic It's a wiki. I fixed it. :) It's now easy to find on the Wheat page as well. Jan 8, 2013 at 21:46
