Hot weather in India threatens wheat crop
India is forecast to experience higher-than-average temperatures from April to June, the India Meteorological Department (IMD) said.
“Most parts of north and east India, central India and the plains of northwest India are expected to experience two to four days of more heat than usual from April to June,” said IMD Director General Mrutyunjay Mohapatra.
The higher temperatures will increase the risk of water shortages and power grid strain. The forecast also raises concerns about potential damage to the wheat crop currently being harvested by farmers. According to Bloomberg, the drop in production could prompt the government to reduce or remove the 40% import duty on wheat.
