In Pakistan, rice is an important food and cash crop. 2nd largest staple food after wheat and exportable commodity after cotton.
Among most famous varieties Basmati - aroma & quality. It has competitive edge in the world market.

Rice Research Historical Background …
Research on rice in Pakistan - 1926. Rice Research Station, Kala Shah Kaku established in Kalar
tract of Punjab, w/c homeland of world famous fine-grain-aromatic variety, “Basmati 370”.
1970, station upgraded - multi-disciplinary institute (Rice Research Institute) with a wider mandate.
Punjab, earlier research work - limited to purification rice varieties with farmers.
From these groups, 7 promising varieties were identified as most desirable and released for general cultivation including world famous aromatic rice variety - Basmati-370 in 1928.
Historical Background …
Sindh, research work - started in 1920 at Rice Research Station, Larkana and then that station was shifted to Dokri in 1938, and upgraded as Rice Research Institute in 1970.
Two varieties Kangni-27 (Long grained non-aromatic) and Jajai-77 (Long grained aromatic) were released in 1932 and 1934 (produced ↑ 10-15% from local).
IRRI gave a momentum to rice production in Sindh (IR-6 & 8) tested in Sindh in 1967 and released in 1969. The variety is still popular in Sindh and covers a maximum area in Sindh province.
Historical Background …
In NWFP (KPK), varietal improvement work was started at ARI, Tarnab, Peshawar in 1962.
As a result, one local variety “Kamode” was selected for general cultivation.
In 1964, the research work was shifted to Mansehra and D.I Khan. A local variety JP5 was selected at Mansehra and was released along with three other varieties Jhona M.F, Basmati C-622 and Bengalo in 1965.
The research work was then shifted from Mansehra to Mingora in 1975.
Historical Background
A Cooperative Research Program on Rice was initiated in 1975 at the National level. PARC acts as coordinating agency.
In addition to coordination, M&E of research and development activities, PARC conducts research on those aspects, which are not being taken by other institutions.
Current Scenario Rice planted on an area of over 2.76 million ha (12% of the total
cropped area), with total production of 6.73 m tons during 20013-14, and accounts for 18% - total cereals produced annually in Pakistan.
6.7 % of value added in agri. and 1.6 % in GDP. Pakistan ranks 5th country in the world for rice export. Every year around 1/3 of the total rice produce is exported and
2/3 is consumed locally. During 2010-11, rice area decline by 14 % over the last year, due
to the shift of rice area to cotton and sugarcane crops. Last year, the area under hybrid rice was almost 17 % in Sindh and
2-3 % in Punjab. During the current rice season, hybrid area is expected to increase to 22 % in Sindh and 5-7 % in Punjab.
A total of 22 % rice area is still under banned and low-yielding rice varieties.
Production Constraints ↓ yielding rice varieties. ↓ plant population. Water scarcity or drought Declining soil fertility
(waterlogging and salinity) and imbalance use of fertilizers.
Losses caused by insect pests, diseases and weeds
Harvest and post-harvest losses.
Inadequate R&D - ↓ resources (H & K)
Rice Program (NARC)Objectives: Devel. of ↑ yielding rice varieties/indigenous hybrids and
commercialization. Devel. & dissemination of water ↓ rice production tech. Economical and sustainable nutrient management in rice
production system. Refining & adoption of IPM for sustainable yield and
cleaner environment. Production of better quality paddy through improved
harvest and post-harvest operations. Establish linkages with national and international
organizations and strengthen public-private partnership.
Research in Progress … Varietal ↑: Indigenous Hybrids
Devel. (Restorer & CMS lines seed) Water-Saving Rice Tech. (dry or aerobic rice saved 25-34% water, ↑ 54 % productive tillers and 43 % grain yield over farmers’ conventional practice)
Integrated Nutrient Management (Zinc to Rice Nursery, Spray of Potash, Leaf Colour Chart, Green Manuring, etc.)
Integrated Pest Management
Research in Progress Harvest and Post-Harvest Losses
(European 2nd hand combines – mainly for wheat, Rice thresher, burning crop residues -tive effects
Germplasm Acquisition and Distribution - 21,000 lines from IRRI, via INGER net work - 12 rice varieties developed/released.
National Uniform Rice Yield Trials - 400 rice lines tested and 50 rice varieties were released for general cultivation
Current Pak. IRRI Collaboration1. Agricultural Innovation Program (AIP) 2013-16 (Breeding
Program for improved Indica and Basmati Rice, Improved Crop Management, ↑ Post Harvest and Quality control, Capacity building for rice R&E officers)
2. Green Super Rice (GSR) for the Resource-Poor of Africa and Asia Phase II (2014-15) - Large Scale Seed production, Agronomic trial, Conduct adaptive research trials for new sets of GSR materials, HRD,
3. SIAC Activity 2.1: Organize the collection of crop germplasm improvement research related direct outcomes in South, Southeast and East Asia
4. Punjab Basmati Rice Value Chain 2014-16 - Improved basmati seed varieties, farming and postharvest practices, research and service capabilities
Private Rice Production & Export
Rice trading is open and well managed by private sector. Exporters invested in rice-processing equipment to ↑quality of rice. Similarly, private-sector investment in milling improved the quality of rice available for exports, thus enhancing competitiveness of Pakistan’s rice in export.
Need for Effective Food/Rice Policy 2 rounds of food price ↑ (2007 & 2011)
→ contributed to mil. of people being hungry or malnourished.
Factors → ↓ growth rate of agri. productivity, ↑ energy prices → ↑ biofuel production, ↓US $, ↑ dd from emerging econ. for agri. products, & weather shocks.
Evidence based policies & strategies help ensure that all people have access to safe, sufficient, nutritious, & sustainably grown food must go beyond traditional agri. production.
Fittingly, dd for evidence-based research to inform those policies is ↑ than ever – efficient crop production
Govt. Intervention Measures of Econ. Incentives affecting relative
incentive in agri.:– Price and subsidy policies– Import and export policies– More general macro-econ. policies i.e. exchange rate and
interest rate policies (Institutional/supply side) Social or econ. profitability deviate from private
profitability bec. of distortions in:- factor and output markets - externalities and - govt. policy interventions
tends to distort relative prices

In Punjab Basmati perform ↑ than cotton. S. cane performed ↑ than all competing crops. NPC and EPC for basmati paddy are < 1 during entire 2008-
13 → farmer are not received econ. Price of their produce. While IRRI fluctuate but > some protection to growers.
DRC = Opportunity cost of domestic resource use & if value < 1 → system has comparative advantages (CA). DRC for Basmati < 1 → CA
DRC of IRRI in Punjab > 1 → No CA while Sindh province DRC < 1 → ↑ CA for rice X.
Recommendations … Adequate and regular resources for RD&E -
ASTI. Dire need of evidence based “Rice
Production and Export Policy” – Basmati rice productivity ↑, value addition (Value addition in basmati rice through bio-fortification, rice bran oil extraction, brown rice, etc.), effective and efficient marketing
Climate ∆ impact on rice – adoption. ↑ yielding short duration rice varieties
having desired tolerant to a-biotic & biotic stresses and
Development of aerobic rice cultivation technology.
Recommendations Development of indigenous rice
hybrids - NARS. ↑ quality improvement. Encourage private sector. Carbon sequencing in rice-wheat
system. Post-harvest management- rice value
chain during storage /milling. Food safety analysis (pesticide
residues, heavy metals, aflatoxin) in rice, etc.
HRD – a continue process.
Future Perspectives with IRRI Technical cooperation by sharing IRRI expertise and
experience in R&D, extension in solving all production issues and constraints, Germplasm exchange program – Long term relations.
Sharing of climate ∆ impact on rice productivity and helping in ↓ Carbon sequencing in rice-wheat system.
Formulation of Rice production policy analysis. Food safety analysis (pesticide residues, heavy
metals, aflatoxin) in rice, etc. HRD - new rice generation
