NEW DELHI:

Higher federally fixed guaranteed prices and conducive weather prompted farmers to expand the area planted with high-yielding seed varieties.

India is the world's biggest wheat producer after China and produced 113.3 million tonnes of the winter-sown grain in 2024, according to the farm ministry. A top industry body however said the crop was nearly 6% lower than the government's projections.
