  • What are the benefits of increasing oilseeds production in Pakistan?
  • Scaling up the oilseeds production is vital because it can reduce the import bill for oilseeds and edible oil. Considering the growing demand for edible oils, continued deficit, and high cost of imports, Pakistan has the potential of producing sizeable quantities of oilseeds.
  • What are the main oilseed crops produced in Pakistan?
  • Pakistan has the potential of producing sizeable quantities of oilseeds which can reduce the import bill for oilseeds and edible oil. Currently, the country produces various types of oilseed crops including rapeseed and mustard, canola, sunflower, cottonseed, groundnut, soybean, sesame, safflower, linseed, jojoba, castor, Salicornia and salvadora.
  • Are oilseed crops used for edible oil in Pakistan?
  • Oilseed crops are classified as minor crops in Pakistan. Edible oil in Pakistan is extracted from mainly two types of oilseeds: non-traditional or unconventional (sunflower, safflower, soybean, Castor).
  • Why is scaling up oil production important in Pakistan?
  • Considering the growing demand for edible oils and continued deficit, scaling up the oilseeds production is vital in Pakistan. This can significantly reduce the import bill for oilseeds and edible oil, as the country has the potential to produce sizeable quantities of oilseeds.
  • Is linseed a traditional oilseed crop in Pakistan?
  • Linseed is categorized as a traditional oilseed crop in Pakistan. It is predominantly cultivated in Punjab and Sindh.
  • Why is oil production down 19 percent in Pakistan?
  • Pakistan¡¯s MY 2020/21 total oilseed production is down 19 percent, mainly due to the historically low cotton production of 4.5 million 480-pound bales. MY 2021/22 total oilseed production is projected to increase 13 percent based on an expected increase in cottonseed production.
