Unseasonal rains damaged wheat crop in North India. Food Corporation of India set the procurement target of wheat at 35 million tonnes. This is one million tonnes more than the previous year. However, many farmers have damaged wheat due to unseasonal rains that are being rejected by FCI. With the private procurement at minimal levels due to lockdown restrictions, farmers are left stranded on where to sell their damaged crop.
