The third advance estimate of wheat production by the agriculture ministry is expected to be released this month.

Heatwave conditions since the middle of March have caused significant damage to the standing wheat crop, especially in Punjab, Haryana, Rajasthan and Uttar Pradesh, all major producers of the staple cereal.

Early estimate says that the crop damage would be of the order of 15-20 million tonne, meaning wheat output in 2021-22 crop year (July-June) would be around 96-98 million tonne (mt), against the second advance estimate of 111.32 mt. Last year’s rabi wheat production was a record 109.59 mt.

Summer crops such as pulses, coarse cereals, oilseeds, vegetables and fruits have also been hit by the heatwaves across most parts of north India and western parts of the country. Estimates of the losses of these crops can be made only later. That water levels at reservoirs are higher than year-ago levels is a respite.
