महंगाई - गेहूं यानी wheat

गेहूं की महंगाई रहस्यमय हो चली है. मांग और आपूर्त‍ि की गुत्‍थी का सिरा ही गुम है.

- नई फसल आने के बाद भी कीमतें न घटीं. अगस्‍त में गेहूं की क़ीमत करीब 100 रुपये/ क्‍व‍िंटल बढ़ चुकी है. आटा करीब तीन रुपये/किलो महँगा हुआ, एसा उपभोक्‍ता विभाग बता रहा है.

- आटा महंगा तो ब्रेड से लेकर रेस्‍टोरेंट-ढाबे तक महंगाई का साम्राज्य.

- रबी की खरीद निबट ली, केंद्रीय पूल में पर्याप्‍त गेहूं नहीं जुटा. एक अगस्‍त को स्‍टॉक बीते साल से कम ( 280 की जगह 268 लाख टन) रह गया.

- किसानों ने सरकार को गेहूं नहीं दिया. लक्ष्‍य था 320 लाख टन खरीद का, जुट पाया केवल 266 लाख टन.

- बाजार ने माहौल भाँप लिया , कीमतें फिर बढ़ चलीं.

- गेहूँ की उपज यानी आपूर्ति तो बढ़ी है ( इस साल उत्पादन 11.29 करोड़ टन, पिछले साल 11.05 करोड़ टन था) मगर . .

- गेहूं की थोक महंगाई लगातार चिढ़ा रही है (जुलाई 2024 में 7%, जुलाई 2023 में 8.01% और जुलाई 2022 में 13.61%). दो साल में 17% बढ़ा है भाव

- चुनाव से पहले सरकार ने आटा बेचा, खुले बाजार में गेहूं की बिक्री हुई, मगर ..

- दो साल पहले गेहूं का निर्यात बंद कर दिया था. उत्‍पादकों को नुकसान की कीमत पर भी महंगाई न थमी.

- महँगे हुए गेहूं से किसानों को कितना फ़ायदा हुआ ? कम्पनियाँ तो गाँव में घटती माँग को बिसूर रही हैं.

- मानसून सुर्ख‍ियों में सामान्‍य और भीतर से अस्‍त व्‍यस्‍त है. 19 अगस्‍त तक 30% जिलों में बरसात सामान्‍य से कम रही है जबकि 17% जिलों में जरुरत से ज्‍यादा.

- खरीफ की बुवाई संतुलित है मगर मानसून के मिजाज को देखकर उपज पर असमंजस है.

- गेहूं के आयात की नौबत आएगी? सुगबुगाहट भी है और इंकार भी.

- RBI इशारे कर रहा है कि थाली वाली (Foo more

Two on going wars and free ration supply to poor may be responcble to the phenomina mentioed above. more  
After Kisan Andolan as asked by farmers rather mafias controlling the food market this is going to happen it's just the beginning with no end as government has given in to demands of these mafias and citizens of India coming out in full support , why cry for something which everyone brought upon themselves more  
Wheat in a Mall in Maharashtra was tagged at Rs. 73.50 and all other items have heavily priced, tea at Rs. 150 for 250 grams. Most of the things are highly priced. more  
If not wrong, I believe, till 2014, government had been importing all food grains. During that period no MSP demanded by farmers nor therr was fast unyo👌 death. During these periods all FCI and CWC godowns werr large food grain stock, which were rotating. Can any one clarify reason for this. It is believed inports were banned and domestic produces were bought by government at certain fixed rate, which farmers found low MSP offered. Farmers road blocks and hartals were going on. Prior to 2014 farmers were accepting the price offered by the buyers, when weren't farmers felt low MSP offered?. During these periods, I presume, the exported products werr reexported to india at low price. This may be the reason for price controlling against current pricing. more  
Any Govt. tries to controll inflamation by controlling food prices, it tends to import food grains, seal state boudries and use other measures. We also know that one can develope a sofiscated space technology but one has to depend on food. One may earn crores of money from service or business, spend thousands of Rs. on cigeratte and alcohal but Rs. 100/Kg increase in wheat prices causes heart burn for many. major wheat producing contries (Russia and Ukrane) are busy in war and major part of world looking towards India to fulfill some of their food requirements. Do we ever tend to think that wheat is sold at Rs. 25/kg, floor at Rs. 40 to fity and a 25 gram of Chapati made from same wheat is sold at Rs. 20 to 40per no. we easily pay Rs. 100 for 4 chapaties but Re. 1 per kg increase in wheat price hurts us a lot. Any business can grow only if it generates profit. If we calulate all cost labour dedication etc wheat production does not meet the break even point for many. In present crises wheat prices would have gone to Rs. 50/kg it is Govt. which is providing free ration to 80 crore of people vis a vis controlling food prices. That is like Samajvad i.e. "mehnat karne walo se sasta lekar nikamme logo ko khilao". Which has created a worst effect in thinking of people also i.e. "It is duty of Govt to feed every one." If this continues for 2-3 more years wheat will get sold at Rs. 100/Kg. because no one will tend to do work hard to produce, as every one will be getting it free. I personnaly believe that 1 kg of wheat is sufficient to fulfill energy requirements of 4 people for afull day and it is under valued. more
