India's Ministry of Agriculture defined more precisely its forecast for the wheat yield

In the current season farmers will harvest  97.44 mln. tonnes of wheat, which will be above the previous record of 95.85 mln. tonnes set in 2013 - 2014. Last year's wheat yield in the country was 92.29 mln. tonnes.

The yield of all grains will reach 273.38 mln. tonnes, a record that has been achieved thanks to the plenty of rainfalls during the season.
