Haryana Commences Wheat Procurement for Rabi Season 2025-26 Amid Record Production Projections

Haryana Launches Wheat Procurement Amidst Record Production Estimates

As of April 1, 2025, the Haryana government has commenced wheat procurement for the Rabi marketing season 2025-26 across 415 designated centers, including 23 in Karnal. The state anticipates a wheat production of approximately 11.6 million metric tonnes (MT) from an estimated sowing area of 2.463 million hectares. This projection indicates a significant increase compared to the previous year’s production of 10.93 million MT in 2023.

Procurement Targets and Minimum Support Price

The Haryana government has set a procurement target of 7.5 million MT for this season. Farmers will receive a Minimum Support Price (MSP) of ₹2,425 per quintal for their wheat produce.

Logistical Preparations and Challenges

To facilitate the procurement process, 415 mandis have been established for wheat, along with additional centers for other Rabi crops. A cash credit limit of ₹6,653.44 crore has been approved to ensure timely payments to farmers. However, concerns have been raised regarding incomplete arrangements, such as the finalization of transport and labor contractors and the distribution of gunny bags.

Haryana’s proactive approach to wheat procurement, coupled with favorable production estimates, underscores the state’s commitment to supporting its agricultural community. Addressing logistical challenges promptly will be crucial to ensure a seamless procurement process, thereby safeguarding farmers’ interests and contributing to the state’s food security.
