AREA UNDER COVERAGE for wheat rose 2% to 33.4 million hectares till January 9 of the ongoing rabi (wintersown) season, according to the government data.
Wheat acreage stood at 32.8 million hectare in the same period of the preceding rabi season.
Sowing of wheat, a major rabi crop, generally starts from October. Better monsoon rains and increase in the minimum support price (MSP) by the government have encouraged farmers to increase sowing area.
