India's government says its export ban on wheat and broken rice will continue because domestic wheat prices are rising and grain is needed for domestic supply. Officials say the ban may last through this year if stocks do not improve.
A free food grain scheme will get an extra subsidy of about Rs 14,000 crore.
Continued Indian restrictions keep a major exporter's wheat and broken rice off world markets, which supports international prices and tightens feed grain supply.
