Pakistan: Grain and Feed Update

Pakistan’s marketing year (MY) (May-April ) 2020/21 wheat production estimate is revised downward from 25.7 to 25.2 million metric tons (MMT), in accordance with the latest official data. Reports from the field suggest a four-percent increase in the wheat planted area for the MY 2021/22 crop. Pakistan’s wheat imports for the current MY are expected to be around 2 million metric tons (MMT). Pakistan exported around 3.8 MMT of rice during MY (November-October) 2019/20. The Intellectual Property Organization (IPO) Pakistan has filed an application against India’s bid to obtain exclusive Geographical Indication (GI) tag for basmati rice in the European Union (EU).
