Wheat Price in Pakistan Today | July 2025
The wheat price in Pakistan stands at Rs. 2100 to Rs. 2350 per 40 kilogram based on the city, transportation cost, quality, and type of wheat (Gundam – گندم – ). In Punjab, the per kg price is somewhere between Rs. 55 to Rs. 58. Sindh may have a higher wheat price compared to Punjab because the Sindhi cities are far from the suppliers.
The price of wheat flour (aatta) is approximately Rs. 2850 – Rs. 2900 for 50kg and Rs. 5800 for 100kg packs. Lahore and karachi are major consumption centers where aata prices fluctuate daily.

The set support price provides farmers and traders an ensured estimated price in the harvesting season.

Key Factors Driving Wheat Prices in July 2025
The following interconnected issues are causing the current situation of wheat pricing in Pakistan:
1 Decreased Domestic Production
Wheat production for the 2024-25 season was almost 8% less than the government’s set target, which can be attributed to:
- Underperforming rainfall during winter months for important crop regions.
- Soaring costs of agrochemicals and thus, farmer expenditure.
- Famine of energy, particularly around irrigation and harvesting.
The aforementioned problems have created a need for greater imports, however, this is not without complications.
2 Global Market Developments as well Pakistan Imports Dependency
This year, Pakistan has almost met the domestic demand with an import of 1.5 million tonnes of wheat. However, geopolitcal conflicts in the black sea region along with irregular weather in Europe and North America have raised the prices of wheat worldwide.
Such reasons have increased the cost of importing goods, which in turn has also raised the domestic prices, particularly in areas with weak supply chains.
3 Changes in the Value of Currency and Inflation
The exchange rate puts continuous stress on the Pakistani rupee which remains around 310 rupees for a dollar. This has a much larger effect on the import inflation of agricultural goods such as wheat, increasing the already existing inflation in prices of food.
The Pakistan Bureau of Statistics puts inflation on average around 18 percent year on year for July 2025 with food inflation estimated to be at an even higher margin of 22 percent
4 Challenges of Distribution and Transportation Actually Faced Today
Availability of wheat is influenced by current fuel price wars and persisting road network issues due to floods in southern Punjab and northern Sindh. Such logistical issues lead to spurious shortages in far off districts along with regional price fluctuations.
Government Response and Market Outlook
The federal and provincial governments have implemented various measures to contain the market:
- To help stabilize the price of atta, the Punjab Food Department is now supplying wheat stocks to flour mills at subsidized rates.
- To shield vulnerable households from the surge in flour prices, targeted subsidies through the Benazir Income Support Program (BISP) are being considered.
- Negotiations are in progress with some international counterparts like Russia and Kazakhstan regarding government-to-government wheat procurement agreements at lower-than-market prices.
If the planned import shipment schedule is adhered to and if timely, proactive provisions along with conducive weather are available during the forthcoming rabi season, there may be stabilization around 2025.
Conclusion
wheat prices are still elevated in Pakistan owing to local production problems, reliance on imports, and international economic factors. As relief measures are being put into place, long-term food security relies heavily on strategic foresight in planning, climate-responsive agriculture, and well-balanced control of markets. For both consumers and policymakers, wheat prices symbolize more than mere figures—they represent quite sensitive matters such as economic well-being and social equilibrium.
