Business Point Of View‍

• The per acre yield of locally produced garlic was around 70 to 80 maunds while the new variety had been producing around 200 to 250 maunds per acre, much more than the expectations of farmers, Isamel disclosed. The NARC-G1 is considered to be the best variety among all existing varieties of garlic in Pakistan and its one bulb weighs between 250 gram to 400 grams while the weight of locally produced garlic bulb is around 30 to 50 grams. The annual consumption of garlic in Pakistan is estimated around 130,000 metric tonnes while local production is around 80,000 tonnes ensuing in import of around 50,000 metric tonnes. Through cultivation of this new variety, an hefty amount of Rs. 66 billion can be saved which is being spent on import of the variety, Ismael shared. The G1 garlic needs official patronage for its production and for benefiting the farming community by enabling them to grow this highly profitable variety, Ismael remarked. Ismael said he started growing the G1 on small scale in 2018 and now after realizing its financial benefits he had expanded production over around 30 acres of land.
• Meanwhile, growers in Punjab were also found very much happy over experimental cultivation of the NARC-G1 and termed it as a potential product for earning sufficient amount of foreign exchange through export. Saad Javed, an educated farmer from Samandari Tehsil of Faisalabad, said he found the G1 garlic as a highly profitable product due to high demand and very suitable price. Sharing estimates of investment in cultivation and profits in yield, Saad Javed shared that sowing of two to 2.5 maunds of seed on one kanal land cost up to Rs 400,000 to 500,000 while the yield from one kanal was around 40 maunds generating an amount of Rs 800,000 to 10,00000 (one million). He said price of fresh yield was different and dry garlic was much more valuable while the shelf life of this variety was also longer when stored under suitable conditions, he added. Vice Chancellor Agriculture University Peshawar, Prof. Dr. Jehan Bakht, while inspecting a farm of the G1 garlic within the premises of varsity over an area of one acre, said this new variety was very much beneficial for improving earnings of farmers besides earning of foreign exchange.
