Farmers in Gujarat, especially those affected by recent unseasonal rains, have a reason to smile. The Gujarat government has announced that it will purchase wheat from farmers at the Minimum Support Price (MSP) of INR 2,425 per quintal, as declared by the central government under the Rabi Marketing Season 2025–26.
In addition to this, the state government will also give a bonus of INR 150 per quintal, making it even more beneficial for the farmers.
Key Details:
- Wheat MSP (Base Price): INR 2,425 per quintal
- Additional Bonus by Gujarat Govt: INR 150 per quintal
- Total Price Farmers Will Get: INR 2,575 per quintal
- Last Date for Procurement: 31st May 2025
- Procurement Agency: Gujarat State Civil Supplies Corporation Ltd.
Why This Matters
Due to unseasonal rains over the past few days, many standing crops have been damaged, causing financial stress for farmers. This government support is meant to ensure farmers get a fair price for their wheat and some relief from the losses.
Farmers are encouraged to register and sell their wheat to the government through authorized purchase centers before the deadline.
