What climate does pasta grow best in?

Pasta is made of wheat and water, it is not grown as "pasta". Wheat needs 12 to 15 inches (31 to 38 centimeters) of water to produce a good crop. Wheat grows best when temperatures are warm, from 70° to 75° F (21° to 24° C), but not when it is too hot. Wheat crops also need a lot of sunshine, especially when the grains are forming. Areas with low humidity are better since many wheat diseases thrive in damp weather. North central United states, south central Canada and central plains of Russia are all ideal wheat growing areas. Durum wheat contains the hardest kernel of all wheat varieties and is used to make semolina. Semolina is used to make macaroni, spaghetti, and other pasta products. Durum is the best wheat for pasta products because of its excellent amber color and superior cooking quality. Durum wheat has strong gluten characteristics that form strong, non sticky doughs ideal for pasta processing and, in general, tends to produce pasta products with superior cooking characteristics.
