11 Mar 2026 Evaluate

The agriculture ministry in its second advance estimate has said that India’s wheat production is estimated at a record 120.21 million tonnes (MT) in the 2025-26 crop year, up 2 per cent from 117.94 MT in the previous year. Wheat, a major rabi (summer) crop, is beginning to be harvested and is expected to pick up pace in key growing states in the coming weeks.

As per the second advance estimate, total rabi crop production is estimated to rise 3.16 per cent to 174.51 MT in 2025-26 from 169.16 MT a year earlier. Pulses output is projected to grow 7 per cent to 16.24 MT in the rabi season of 2025-26 from 15.23 MT a year ago, as the country looks to narrow a demand-supply gap that has left the country dependent on imports. Gram production is pegged slightly higher at 11.79 MT in 2025-26 against 11.11 MT a year earlier, while lentil output is estimated at 1.73 MT in 2025-26 versus 1.65 MT a year earlier.  However, urad output is seen lower at 0.51 MT in 2025-26 from 0.55 MT, and green gram at 0.09 MT in 2025-26 from 0.10 MT a year earlier. 

Among oilseeds, rapeseed-mustard production is estimated at 13.33 MT in 2025-26 crop year, up from 12.66 MT a year ago. Groundnut output is seen higher at 0.80 MT in 2025-26 crop year versus 0.68 tonnes a year earlier, while sunflower seed production is estimated lower at 0.10 MT in 2025-26 crop year from 0.12 MT tonnes. Meanwhile, Maize output is forecasted to rise to 15.90 MT in 2025-26 from 14.75 MT a year earlier, while rice production is estimated slightly higher at 16.72 MT in 2025-26 against 16.12 m MT a year earlier. Total coarse cereals output is pegged at 21.34 MT in 2025-26, up from 19.86 MT a year ago.
