Wheat production has increased higher due to higher acreage and yield despite unseasonal rains. In the 2021-22 crop year, wheat production fell to 107.74 million tonnes due to a heat wave in key growing states, the report said. In addition, the ministry estimates a record production of rice, maize, oilseeds and sugarcane.
