With the facilitation of the Special Investment Facilitation Council (SIFC), Pakistan has witnessed a notable surge in agricultural exports.
The council’s support has simplified market access, significantly enhancing the reach of Pakistani agricultural products globally.
One of the most significant improvements has been observed in sesame seed exports to China. In the first two months of 2025 alone, Pakistan exported a remarkable 22,740 metric tons of sesame to China, marking a 179% increase. This growth in exports not only showcases Pakistan's increasing presence in global markets but also indicates a substantial development in the country’s agricultural sector.
This growth in agricultural exports is a result of several factors, including improvements in agricultural production, the adoption of modern farming techniques, and simplified trade processes. These developments are expected to contribute significantly to Pakistan's economy by stabilizing foreign exchange reserves and fostering economic growth.
The surge in sesame seed exports will provide much-needed support to Pakistan’s agricultural sector, which will, in turn, help stabilize and enhance the country's overall economic situation. With continued support from the SIFC, the agricultural sector is expected to benefit further, making Pakistan’s position in global trade stronger.
The facilitation by SIFC in providing better access to global markets for agricultural products is set to play a crucial role in ensuring Pakistan's economic stability. The rise in agricultural exports, particularly to China, is a clear indicator of the positive impact of these efforts, which are helping bolster the country's economic standing and agricultural progress.
