Registration for wheat procurement at the minimum support price (MSP) for the Rabi Marketing Year 2026-27 has commenced in Madhya Pradesh. Chief Minister Mohan Yadav has assured farmers of fair compensation for their efforts, with 3,186 registration centers set up across the state for this purpose until March 7. The government aims to ensure that farmers are justly rewarded for their hard work.
Food, Civil Supplies, and Consumer Protection Minister Govind Singh Rajput announced on February 3 that free registration services will be provided at various centers, including Gram Panchayat and Janpad Panchayat offices, tehsil offices, and cooperative societies. Additionally, paid registration options are available at designated centers for a fee not exceeding Rs 50 per registration, as per district collectors’ directives.
Special provisions have been made for tenant farmers, sharecroppers, Kotwars, and forest land leaseholders, who can register exclusively at cooperative society-operated centers. The MSP for wheat in 2026-27 has been set at Rs 2,585 per quintal, marking a Rs 160 increase from the previous year. Payments for the procured wheat will be promptly transferred to farmers’ Aadhaar-linked bank accounts, ensuring efficient transactions and accountability.
District collectors have been tasked with overseeing the operational status of Aadhaar enrollment centers at district and tehsil levels to facilitate updates and corrections. Farmers are encouraged to ensure proper Aadhaar linkage for seamless payment processing, with support available at post offices and through bank coordination.
