The wheat procurement season in Haryana for 2026-27 concluded successfully, with the state government purchasing 80.89 lakh metric tonnes (LMT) of wheat, exceeding its target of 75 LMT. The total wheat arrival for the season was recorded at 84.45 LMT, a significant increase from last year's 75.61 LMT. Procurement operations, which began on April 1, expanded from 416 purchase centers to 589 centers across the state, with three agencies, including the Food Corporation of India (FCI), managing the purchases at a minimum support price of ₹2,585 per quintal. The government credited ₹19,687.75 crore to 10,03,530 farmers, with Sirsa district leading in both purchases and payments. Despite the smooth procurement process, allegations of fraud emerged, with two FIRs filed against six agents for selling wheat from unregistered farmers in Uttar Pradesh as if it were from Haryana farmers. Investigations into these fraudulent activities are ongoing.
