Yield from what is planted, we hear (4)
I believe the answer is:
cede
'yield' is the definition.
(I know that yield can be written as cede)
I can't explain the remainder of the clue.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for cede that I've seen before include "Give up (territory)" , "Give up (power to another)" , "Give away" , "21 across" , "Give up (eg, power)" .)
