Pakistan Wheat Prices Hit 29-Month High Amid Supply Shortages

Pakistan's national average wheat price hit a 29-month high on August 6, 2026, due to domestic supply constraints and shortages across markets.

The sharp increase reflects the local availability of wheat, according to Topline Securities.

While higher prices may boost farm incomes and support rural economic activity, they also raise concerns over food inflation. The federal government is considering importing 1 million tons of wheat to ease the supply gap.
