Wheat is the most important food-grain of India and is the staple food of millions of Indians, particularly in the northern and north-western parts of the country. It is rich in proteins, vitamins and carbohydrates and provides balanced food. India is the fourth largest producer of wheat in the world after Russia, the USA and China and accounts for 8.7 per cent of the world’s total production of wheat. Wheat production is mainly confined to North-Western parts of the country. Uttar Pradesh, Punjab and Haryana are the three prominent wheat producing states. These states account for about 60 per cent of the wheat area and produce about three-fourths of the total wheat production in India. In fact, Punjab, Haryana and the contiguous western parts of U.P. have earned the distinction of being called the ‘Granary of India’. The other major wheat producing states are Rajasthan, Madhya Pradesh and Bihar. About one-third of the total production of wheat enters trade. Punjab, Haryana, Uttar Pradesh, Rajasthan and Madhya Pradesh are surplus states and supply wheat to deficit states like Maharashtra, West Bengal, Bihar and the Union Territory of Delhi. India imported 29.23 lakh tonnes of wheat in 1970-71 and 70.94 lakh tonnes in 1975-76. Since then India has become self-sufficient in wheat production and does not have to import wheat. Rather India is in a position to export small quantities of wheat.
