Indian Cabinet Approves 1% to 10% Hike in Rabi Crop MSPs, Lifting Wheat Support Price to ₹2,610 a Quintal
The Indian Cabinet has approved an increase of 1% to 10% in the minimum support prices for rabi crops for the 2026-27 marketing season, with wheat now set at ₹2,610 per quintal, up from ₹2,585. The move is aimed at supporting farm incomes ahead of the winter sowing cycle, while also balancing inflationary pressures and the government’s food procurement bill.
