Lokwan Wheat

Lokwan wheat is one of the most widely cultivated wheat varieties in India, known for its bold, plump grain and high yield per acre. It has become a staple choice for farmers and millers across the country.

This variety is prized for its strong gluten content, which makes it ideal for bread-making, as well as its versatility in producing a range of flour products. The grain has a characteristic reddish-brown outer husk and a creamy white interior.

Lokwan wheat adapts well to the climate of the Deccan Plateau and central India, making Madhya Pradesh one of its primary cultivation regions.
