00:00In this context, Khushamdid is going to present us with a very detailed public policy report.
00:05And we will see it as a wonderful and profitable global trading opportunity that is very easy to understand.
00:12Just imagine a country with tremendous economic potential, completely deprived of a highly profitable share of the global market.
00:18is chopped
00:19And today we will see how this big gap can be filled.
00:23Let's go straight into the depth of it.
00:25Just look at this violence
00:277.9 Three billion dollars is no small sum.
00:32Did you know that in 2022, the value of avocado alone was so high in the world?
00:38It really seems like the whole world is crazy about avocado toast.
00:43These surprising numbers force us to think.
00:47How vast is the real influence of the fruit trade on world power?
00:51And what a great price people around the world are paying for these new styles
00:55The first part is about the increasing demand for fruits at global level and market analysis.
01:00Now the situation is that the demand for fruits at global level has far outstripped their supply.
01:06This market is growing at a phenomenal rate of 70 percent annually.
01:09If we talk about the increase in traditional fruit production, it is only two percent.
01:13This means that demand is growing much faster than that.
01:16Western countries, especially the US and Europe, are known for their exotic and exotic fruits like avocado, dragon fruit, and passion fruit.
01:22The demand for fruits is skyrocketing.
01:24The wealth of Dragon Fruit and Passion Fruit alone has reached close to four and a quarter billion dollars.
01:28This is proof of how rapidly this Urban Dollar market is expanding.
01:32The second part is Pakistan's untapped legal capacity.
01:37Now the most interesting and surprising thing here is that Pakistan has approximately 0.87 million hectares of land.
01:44Arazi is
01:45And also annual production of better than lakh tonnes of fruit
01:48But even today we are spending only on a few traditional fruits.
01:5150% of our veranda is comprised solely of kinnow and other Tarshawa fruits.
01:57Whereas mango is at second place with 24 fruits.
02:00I am sure our love for mangoes is understandable.
02:03But we are completely ignoring the new trends of expensive and foreign fruits in the global market.
02:08have been
02:08Which is directly harming our efforts.
02:10And what is the outcome of this whole situation?
02:14The result is that despite the income being 19 percent of the country's gross domestic product (GDP),
02:21Pakistan captures only 0.37 percent of the global fruit production.
02:27Just think how big and depressing Kun Adam Tawajun is this?
02:32Despite having such a huge wealth, is it equivalent to having no share in world power?
02:37Actually, our analysis today is based on a Policy Lab report of the National Institute of Public Administration (NIPA).
02:45Is
02:45The basic objective of this report is to understand this very big problem and find a solution to it.
02:51We are watching, in a completely non-judgmental manner, how Policy Experts would interpret this entire situation.
02:57Are
02:57And what paths do you suggest for improvement?
03:04So the question arises that why such a rich country lagged behind in this race.
03:09So the most important point here is this
03:11Please consider our per hectare yield.
03:14Where modern countries of the world are getting yields of 20 to 25 tonnes from one hectare.
03:20Whereas we can barely reach 8.2-3 tonnes.
03:24The old and outdated methods of farming have caused severe damage to our country's production.
03:28And because of this we are not able to make full and optimal use of our land.
03:33Apart from this, the serious issues of our supply chain are also not hidden from anyone.
03:37What happens is that after the harvest, there is no modern cold storage available to keep the crop safe.
03:43Our farmers are still using old and non-standard seeds.
03:47And above all, the quality certifications required in the global market are also missing.
03:53All these issues together prevent our produce from fully meeting the strict standards of the American and European markets.
04:00The unfortunate result is that much of the fruit spoils before it can be recovered.
04:12But amidst all this gloomy situation, there is a ray of hope.
04:16And we can see a great practical example of this in the coastal areas of Sindh, especially in Karachi and Thatta.
04:22It is available
04:23This is a very brilliant and strategic step away from our old tradition.
04:28Here farmers like Captain Rizwan Rahman have done wonders and successfully grown Alamiyar dragon fruit.
04:35And do you know that this dragon fruit is being sold in the local market for Rs 2-3,000 per kg.
04:41This success proves how powerful our water and air are for these expensive and foreign fruits.
04:47Is
04:47And just look at these numbers and figures if modern technology is used.
04:51This means that 8,000 dragon fruit plants should be planted per acre.
04:55So it is estimated that a huge income of up to two billion rupees can be earned annually.
04:59two billion rupees
05:01It is so surprising to imagine this.
05:03that if we adopt this technique on a large scale
05:07So this can really prove to be a game changer for our national welfare.
05:10However, this also reveals a very important and harsh reality.
05:14See, just growing papaya, kiwi or dragon fruit is not enough.
05:18If we are really looking forward to becoming a global sensation
05:40A concrete and practical solution exists
05:42And it brilliantly reveals that
05:44How a powerful technology like Ultra High Density Plantation can change the entire landscape of agriculture
05:52Is
05:52Simply put, increasing the yield many times by planting more trees in less space is the key to achieving this entire production goal.
05:59what is the condition of
06:00With this, our farmers can produce more produce than ever before even by using less land.
06:05Additionally, this strategic policy intervention aims to upgrade our entire supply chain from the ground up.
06:12On the one hand, there is a need to create a robust processing and cold chain infrastructure to prevent spoilage of the fruit.
06:18It is necessary to enter big markets like America, Europe and China.
06:35A complete and stylish upgrade. Let's move on and see how it looks like a complete upgrade.
06:40This intention of the Draamat is actually a very clear and straightforward action for the government.
06:45It provides public
07:01After understanding the possibilities and the consequences, a very important question arises: Are these strategic policies really
07:08By following these frameworks, we can transform this traditionally rich country into a market for modern and expensive foreign fruits.
