What do you know about wheat in midieval northern China?

Question

WHEAT, MIDIEVAL NORTHERN CHINA

Answer 1

Wheat agriculture was the spark that touched off the Boxer Rebellion during the Han Dynasty.

Answer 2

Although we often associate rice with Chinese agriculture, most archeologists have, until recently, thought it was exclusively millet that was the most important food associated with northern China. However, recent archaeological research conducted on the Liangchengzhen site by investigators from the University of Toronto, The Field Museum in Chicago and China's Shandong University in the province of Shandong shows that not only was millet grown, but rice was apparently the prevalent food source, and wheat was also on the scene.
