16 Apr 2026 Evaluate

The government's wheat procurement has reached 15.30 lakh tonne so far in the current 2026-27 rabi marketing season as compared to 50.08 lakh tonne in the same period of the previous 2025-26 rabi marketing season, i.e. down by 69.44%. Wheat, the main rabi (winter) crop, is procured through the April-March period. However, much of the grain is bought in the first few months itself, mainly by the Food Corporation of India (FCI) and state agencies.

As per FCI data, the agencies have procured 15.30 lakh tonne so far since the start of the procurement operation from April 1, 2026, while the arrival stood at 34.74 lakh tonne. As of April 13, 2026, wheat procurement in Punjab was 29,925 tonne, Haryana, 11.23 lakh tonne, Uttar Pradesh 96,670 tonne, Madhya Pradesh 1.02 lakh tonne, Rajasthan 8,957 tonne, Uttarakhand 1.66 lakh tonne. 

The government has set a wheat procurement target of 30.3 lakh tonne for the ongoing 2026-27 season. The procurement in major states such as Punjab and Madhya Pradesh commenced on April 1, 2026, while specific regions like Rajasthan began as early as March 10, 2026. Wheat is being procured at a minimum support price of Rs 2,585 per quintal.
