Plant by hand, rake the area for that small. Easy and wheat won't care.

As mentioned a 20x20 plot is 1/100 of an acre, so you will use and get about 1/100 of what is normal for an acre of wheat.

Wheat likes some N as the head develops, not too much early on. So you don't really need too much fertilizer or manure.

All in all wheat is the general grain that grows anywhere in any conditions, easy to plant, so you don't need to work too hard at this, it will work out.

Biggest issue is to know what you have, winter or spring wheat, and I don't know a way to figure that out easily. Winter wheat needs that vernalizing with freezing after it sprouts, or you won't get much grain. What is common in your area, spring or winter wheat, it likely is whatever is common around you.
