Wheat sowing for the current rabi season is nearly complete across India, covering 32.26 million hectares as of December 29, according to Agriculture Commissioner PK Singh. Prospects for the crop appear bright due to timely sowing and the use of climate-resilient seeds. While most regions have finished, some areas in Bihar are still planting. Officials anticipate a harvest comparable to last year, with increased acreage for pulses and oilseeds expected to boost domestic supply and ease import pressure.
