Punjab Wheat Purchases

Private players in the farm sector have bought one of the biggest amounts of wheat from Punjab this year, breaking a record, in what could be seen as an effect of the Russian invasion of Ukraine.

53,000 sacks of wheat are lying at a railway godown in Jaipur. Wheat that was purchased from Punjab is dumped there because of lack of storage space. Officials at the godown say, the wheat - 26 lakh kilos has now started emanating a bad smell and they have received complaints about the same from people in the vicinity too.
