Like everyone the first that caught my eye was the lack of a face on the worker, but the second thing I noticed is it’s hard to distinguish what the relationship between the worker and the wheat really is. Is he harvesting, weeding, digging…
But the photo has some great strengths too. the clouds above and the greenery below all help lead your eye towards an already strong focal point.
This is a really quick hack job of it, (i just dont have time to isolate the wheat entirely) but if we add some radial blur it now gives us the impression he is reaching for the wheat but we don’t have the expectation of being able to see facial features.

I second this. When I first looked at the photo I could not tell where my eyes were supposed to go. The in focus wheat or the heavy sided workers.

I know this might sound silly and maybe it is, but how do you get your photo featured on a photo critique?

Yeah, I agree with Lase, the subject must be the worker(your focus must be on the hand of the worker or at least of the ear from the hands of the worker). Also, the first worker face is underexposed, I would like to see the expression of his face(hardly work, the sweat).

Centering objects ? Why ? It is so sad to take pictures like hunting a bear with a riffle…

I feel that the subject needs to be the man in the foreground rather than the wheat/barley/corn/broccoli.

Also how do you submit a photo for critique?

It seems that it was a rather hesitant shot. The focus is in the lower right corner, however there are two subjects in the picture, nothing in the center of the picture, sky look blurry.. I just feel as if the picture was taken a second before it was needed to
