skördar

Skördar is a Swedish term that can function as both a noun and a verb. As a noun, skördar is the plural form of skörd, meaning harvests or yields. As a verb, skördar is the third-person singular present tense of skörda, meaning to harvest or to reap. The word is commonly used in agricultural and culinary contexts.

In usage, skördar refers to the gathering of crops at the end of the growing season. The harvest time varies by crop and climate but typically occurs from late summer through autumn in temperate regions. In Sweden, timing is influenced by weather, daylight, and farming practices. Common crops include cereals such as wheat and barley, root crops like potatoes, and oilseeds such as rapeseed.

Economically and culturally, skörd (the harvest) and skördar (the harvests) are tied to agricultural productivity and food supply, and yields are often reported in units such as tons per hectare. The term also appears in regional traditions and festivals that celebrate the end of the growing season, including harvest markets and community celebrations.
