Chairman Cotton Generous Forum Ehsanul Haq says that instead of other secondary measures including improvement of cotton research stations to restore and increase production of cotton, discouraging sugarcane cultivation in cotton zones by fully implementing crop zoning laws is the need of the hour.
In his statement, he said that after the implementation of crop zoning laws, improvements in cotton research stations, the Pakistan Cotton Board under the leadership of Aptma should be legalized and the Pakistan Central Cotton Committee and its subsidiaries should be subordinated to it.
He said that due to the ongoing economic crisis in the local cotton sector due to the local production and quality of cotton being less than expected, the downward trend in cotton prices prevailed during the last week and due to the ongoing financial crisis in the cotton sector, there are reports of a scandal worth billions of rupees in the cotton market of Faisalabad.
Ehsanul Haq said that Pakistan is the only country among the top cotton producing countries in the world, where cotton production has decreased by more than 60% during the last 10 years. Along with this, the burden of edible oil imports also fell.
