Minister for Commerce Jam Kamal Khan says the country's agricultural exports have reached a historic milestone of eight billion dollars for the first time in history. During a virtual meeting with the Sectoral Council for Rice and the Council for Dairy and its Products, the Minister emphasized the importance of their contribution to the national economy. He said our goal is to increase export volumes, and all possible measures will be taken in this regard. The minister encouraged the council to set its sights on a five billion dollars target for the coming year, indicating the government's confidence in the sector's ability to continue its upward trajectory. The minister observed Pakistan's leading position in the European and Gulf markets in the rice sector but emphasized the need to focus on producing pesticide-free products to maintain this edge.
