If it is only an area 20x20, think of it as a garden bed.
You could broadcast the seed by hand (my grandfather used to do that for the new variety seed that he was 'bulking up') and rake it in (but it will end up very uneven) OR you could use a stick to make rows and sow the seed into the rows.
It needs to be reasonable soil. It may need N,P,K etc fertiliser depending on location, and it needs moisture.
You can easily harvest a little area like that with a sickle.
Wheat is easy to grow even in a desert country like Australia. I grow several thousand acres a year, and this is essentially gardening on a big scale.
