Exploring CPEC Opportunities in Agriculture PRESENTED BY:

NAVEED ALAM QURESHI



GOLDEN WORDS At present, the two sides are working together to steadily advance the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC). Committed to building a China-Pakistan community of common destiny, we cooperate to expand our converging interests and strive for common development. Our aim is to deliver even more benefits to our peoples and realise brighter development prospects.

Exploring CPEC Opportunities in Agriculture 4

CHINA-PAKISTAN ECONOMIC CORRIDOR (CPEC)


Agriculture20.9%

Others79.1%

(TOTAL G.D.P = USD 243.63 Billion)

*Economic Survey of Pakistan 2014-15

PAKISTAN: ECONOMY

USD 50.92 B USD 192.71 B



Status of Agriculture in Pakistan An Agricultural Country with, Land Area: 79 Million Hectares

vs. Cropped Area 22.4 Million Hectares (29%)

Significant Channel of Exports to Central Asian Countries

Middle Eastern Countries

African Countries


CROP DATA Pakistan is World’s 4th Largest Producer of Fiber Crop

7th Largest Producer of Wheat

11th Largest Producer of Sugarcane

13th Largest Producer of Rice

13th Largest Producer of Citrus Fruit

16th Largest Producer of Cereal

16th Largest Producer of Pulses

21st Largest Producer of Oil Crops

21st Largest Producer of Fruit

Rising Needs (Current vs. Forecasts) Current Population of Pakistan: 182.19 Million

Population Growth Rate: 1.82%

By 2025, Population will Surpass 225 Million

Crop Current Yield – 2015 Required Yield by 2025

Wheat 2.78 Tonnes/Hectare 3.41 Tonnes/Hectare

Cotton (Lint) 0.80 Tonnes/Hectare 1.05 Tonnes/Hectare

Rice (Milled) 2.42 Tonnes/Hectare 2.92 Tonnes/Hectare

Sugarcane 56.91 Tonnes/Hectare 69.03 Tonnes/Hectare


Market Opportunities in CPEC To increase the crop yield ; Qualitative and Quantitative Requirements

• Increasing Consumption of Insecticides

• More requirements of Micronutrients

• High Labor Costs increasing the use of herbicides

• Climate change has increased seed borne, soil borne & air borne diseases so more fungicides required

Due to Changing Scenario of Climate & pest, new Chemistries for Pesticides are Required

Simplified Process of Registration of Pesticides Manufacturing Units and Products is launched to attract foreign companies


Market Opportunities in CPEC

Government Initiatives to Enhance Agriculture Production • Financing Priorities

◦ Focusing on setting and maintaining Agriculture Finance

◦ Department in Banks

• EU-GSP Status of Pakistan Duty Free Exports of Commodities to 28 European Union Nations


AGROCHEMICALS Pesticides have Contributed Significantly in Raising Agricultural Yield Hence, Pesticide Industry is Experiencing Remarkable Growth in Both Quantity and Value

Quantity

Imports in 2001 (47,592 Tonnes) vs. 2014 (71267 Tonnes); (49% Increase)

(Department of Plant Protection, Karachi, Pakistan)

Value

Imports in 2001 (73.83 Million USD) vs. 2014 (132.00 Million USD); (78% Increase)

(Department of Plant Protection, Karachi, Pakistan)

Export Opportunities in CPEC

Under Current System,

All Exports from China to Middle Eastern and African Countries are Routed

via Sea

This Export Channel Takes Days Ranging from 18-32 Days resulting in

High Financial Cost

More Time

More Expenses

Exploring CPEC Opportunities


CHINA TRADE ROUTE BEFORE CPEC


Export Opportunities in CPEC Opening of Gawadar Port will provide Easy Connection to Central Asian Countries

Middle Eastern Countries

African Countries

Europe

Benefits Reduce Time Required to Reach Karachi (Pakistan)

and Middle Eastern Countries

This will provide Chinese Exporters a New Lucrative Market

China


This New Route will Benefit Chinese Exporter through: Time Saving Cost Saving Access to Major Agricultural

Markets

THE CPEC ROUTE


OPPORTUNITIES FOR CHINA IN CPEC China’s agricultural sector has achieved great successes and this

is the best example for Pakistan to follow & adopt

China will boost up its export of agricultural inputs (Pesticides,

Fertilizers etc.) and agricultural products to Pakistan & beyond

Import of agriculture machinery from China & then its domestic

production will play a catalytic role in agricultural

mechanization of Pakistan
