I am writing a short descriptive text and I would like to write "There are
many wheat fields". Is it better to say 「たくさんの麦畑があります。」or 「麦畑がいっぱいあります。」?

Your sentences both sound fine.

Using たくさん or いっぱい, you can say...

>   * 麦畑が **たくさん** あります。
>   * 麦畑が **いっぱい** あります。(いっぱい in this sense sounds more casual/colloquial than
> たくさん)
>   * **たくさんの** 麦畑があります。(often used in writing or formal speech -- though 多くの,
> 多数の etc. would be more formal)
