&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;&lt;em&gt;Current circumstances could lead to a reddux of 2006-07, when wheat had to be imported&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;The Centre announced May 4, 2022, that it would procure only 19.5 million tonnes (MT) of wheat in 2022-23, about 56 per cent less than the target decided for this year.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;It also announced that government procurement of wheat in Punjab would stop from May 5. The reason given was the lesser amount of wheat reaching the mandis or wholesale markets.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;According to government data, around 16.2 MT of wheat was procured in the country till May 1, of which, 8 MT had been procured from Punjab, where the target set was to procure 13.2 MT.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;Sudhanshu Pandey, secretary, Department of Food and Public Distribution, Government of India, said in a conference May 4 that this time, the government procurement of wheat was likely to be less than half of the target for this year.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;The reasons behind this were the damage caused to the wheat crop in Punjab, Haryana and Uttar Pradesh due to high temperatures in March and April.&lt;/p&gt;

Wheat Crisis: Centre to procure half of what it procured last year; stops procurement in Punjab -Raju Sajwan

It also announced that government procurement of wheat in Punjab would stop from May 5. The reason given was the lesser amount of wheat reaching the mandis or wholesale markets. According to government data, around 16.2 MT of wheat was procured in the country till May 1, of which, 8 MT had been procured from Punjab, where the target set was to procure 13.2 MT. Sudhanshu Pandey, secretary, Department of Food and Public Distribution, Government of India, said in a conference May 4 that this time, the government procurement of wheat was likely to be less than half of the target for this year. The reasons behind this were the damage caused to the wheat crop in Punjab, Haryana and Uttar Pradesh due to high temperatures in March and April. Please click here to read more.
