The singular form of wheat is simply "wheat". Unlike some words, wheat does not have a different singular and plural form. Interestingly, this is common in English for grains and other 'mass' nouns, which denote something uncountable because it's seen as a collective entity - like "rice" or "sand". So, whether you're talking about a single grain or a whole field, we still say "wheat". Isn't language fun?
