The Indian government has significantly increased its wheat procurement as of April 3, 2024, purchasing 600,000 tonnes, which is a third of all wheat arrivals. This marks a substantial increase from the 350,000 tonnes procured in the same period last year. Additionally, the government plans to buy 50 lakh (5 million) tonnes of wheat from Uttar Pradesh, Rajasthan, and Bihar in 2024. This move is part of a broader strategy to ensure food security and stabilize wheat prices in the country.
