Appraisal: Minister lauds progress of agriculture
ISLAMABAD: Federal Minister Sikandar
Hayat Khan Bosan said that Pakistan has made remarkable progress in
several sectors. Looking at the agricultural sector, Pakistan is now
producing enough food for its population, and also exporting significant
quantities of various food commodities, including, rice, fruits and
livestock products, he added. However, much needs to be done to ensure
that every Pakistani has access to safe and nutritious food at the
household level. This has been a challenge for the poor sections of the
society, and the problem has been exacerbated by various shocks,
particularly the frequent natural disasters. The minister said this
while addressing Food Security Session of Sustainable Development
Conference.
