The provincial and federal secretaries of food are now in conference.
A fact-finding commission has been established to look into wheat imports while the country is under caretaker administration.
However, the federal government’s offer of a four lakh tonne increase in wheat purchases has also been opposed by farmers’ organizations.
30 million tonnes of wheat were produced across the nation, according to farmer leaders.
The paltry four million-ton increase in the wheat purchase campaign from 14 million metric tonnes to 18 million metric tonnes is also rejected by the protesting farmers. The declaration of a four million-ton increase has not satisfied farmers and producers.
Numerous farmers reported that the Punjab government has not yet made any announcements on wheat policies.
