NullPointerException Minecraft MCP Forge 1.6 when adding crops?

Question

I'm making a minecraft mod in Minecraft MCP Forge 1.6(not sure whether to put this in the gaming section or not) and I'm getting a NullPointerException when I load the game.

Here is the code:

Don't try to access an object that is null. You need to find which object is null and then be sure that it is initialized somewhere before that point. — takendarkk, May 09 '14 at 16:49

You are using an object before actually initialised it:

ItemStrawberry = new ItemSeedFood(7231, 3, 0.5F, BlockStrawberry.blockID, Block.tilledField.blockID).setUnlocalizedName("itemStrawberry").setTextureName(modid + ":" + "itemStrawberry").setCreativeTab(CreativeTabs.tabFood);
BlockStrawberry = new Strawberry(1018).setUnlocalizedName("blockStrawberry");

BlockStrawBerry should be initialised for ItemStrawberry.
