You need to clean up the texture and fix the alpha channel and/or save the texture with a different transparency encoding. Odds are that there are pixels which should be fully transparent and aren't, especially at the edges of the texture.
Also you texture is only the top 1/3 or so of the wheat plant. You need a full plant high texture.
Ideally you should use a "(
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sprite_(computer_graphics)) sprite" for this kind of effect. Does NewDark support sprites?

The plant in your photo is most likely Esparto grass (Lygeum spartum), Pedro.
Edit: Sorry, that should be False Esparto. My bad.

There is wheat in the FM The Farm by fibanocci. It's right next to the corn object that kills everyone's framerate.

Instead of a model name one can use the name of a bitmap. This will of course make the bitmap always face the camera, so it might not be good for wide groups of straws (unless maybe they are sufficiently far from the camera). I used this in my last mission (where I needed a free floating number display always facing the player), and I think I've seen also GORT using it, but I don't know if s/he used the same method or not (I vaguely remember other ways of achieving the same effect).

funny every plant texture i use in this object model leaves always a thin white line on the top.
thank you Purgator, i knew it was slightly different from wheat
Thank you Mike for the suggestion.
Thank you LarryG will try to clean the white line. Honestly i never heard of sprite.

This texture looks really good but i can't use the magic wand with psp in this one:
