November 07, 2024

The government, with the support of the Special Investment Facilitation Council, aims to utilize Australia’s expertise in agriculture and livestock to boost food and milk production across the country.

In this regard, the government has allocated four hundred billion rupees to enhance agricultural yields.

This amount will support initiatives such as the provision of Kisan Cards, green tractors, and solar energy projects.

Additionally, the government is investing twenty billion rupees in the livestock sector, focusing on the introduction of livestock farmer cards and strategies to combat livestock diseases.

A target of breeding four hundred thousand calves has been set to ensure the export of disease-free meat, taking into account the impact of cattle diseases.

These initiatives are expected to strengthen Pakistan's agricultural framework, improve food security and contribute to economic stability.
