A USDA FAS report forecasts India's 2023/24 wheat production at 108 million metric tons, up from 100 million mt in 2022/23, on 4.6% more planted area. The forecast cites favorable weather and sufficient soil moisture, and it notes that higher minimum support prices should encourage planting.
A larger expected Indian crop next season reduces import needs and export pressure in world wheat markets, which is bearish for prices.
