1. Introduction of Co-operative & Corporate farming
2. Introduction of Commodity Trading Houses
3. Elimination of dual taxation system to establish trading houses
4. Zero GST regime on all agri inputs
5. Crop Zoning
6. Subsidies given directly to farmers
7. Loans on zero mark up
8. Mechanized agriculture
BASIC REFORMS TO PROMOTE AGRICULTURE
ROLE OF R&D IN SEEDS• Low acceptability of Certified Seed by the farmer• Lack of DNA bar coding & finger printing lab to certify
Nursery• Lack of Truth/ Labelling• True public/private partnership in R&D with research
institutes• Addition of oil seed crops (Import of edible oil in 2013-14 is PKR 211 Billion)
(If we are able to bring average yield / acre equal to Sindh then we can spare 1,467,004 hectares for canola crop & annually save PKR 81 billion spent on import of edible oil)
• Awareness of Balanced Fertilizer Applications• Micronutrients deficiency
ROLE OF R&D IN FERTILIZERS
• Bar coding of products for quality & traceability• Mandatory accreditation labs with each
formulator/manufacturer• Establishment of pesticide residual labs in different
geographical zones• Use of low toxic and less residual pesticides for fruits and
vegetables to boost Agri exports• Establishment of GLP labs for continuous pest resistance
studies • Health, Safety and Crop Productivity improvement
program on village level by public & private sector
ROLE OF R&D IN PESTICIDES
CREDIT ISSUES• Sanctioning of farmers loan as per the local value of
the land accessed by the bank• Introduction of farmers loan on zero percent mark up
who pays back at crop harvesting time • Monitoring by SBP for timely loan disbursement by
financial institutions to the farmers.
