Activity of The Project

Description and Justification of the Project Activity

Activity 1Screening and promotion of grapes and pomegranates in the agro climatic conditions of central zone of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa.

Description: In grapes there is no variety commercially available. However local varieties like Bidana, Kishmish and sundar khani are grown. In pomegranate, some of the local varieties grown, unfortunately these had fruit cracking problem but during the year 2004 ARI Tarnab, Peshawar developed a variety with name of Tarnab Gulabi (Approved by Federal Seed Certification and Registration Department (FSC& RD), The fruit of this variety is of large size with better test and flavor and can be shifted to distant markets. There are also some pockets in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa where growers have some indigenous collections of pomegranate and grapes, which is a natural seedling selection source. These varieties of both species should be collected and preserved as local indigenous germplam and some of them will be evaluated for commercial cultivation in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa. In grapes, there were very promising local varieties having some specific characteristics, these varieties were commercially grown in Sheikh Muhammdo and other parts of Northern as well as in the central zone of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa. But unfortunately, some diseases were non curable at that time, that discouraged the locally growers to keep cultivation. Now days, due to the research studies maximum diseases can be controlled with different techniques, i.e., chemically, biologically and mechanically etc. However, the dare need is to promote good quality and high yielding varieties.

Justification: Pomegranates and Grapes cultivation in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa needs proper attention as there is no established orchards/vineyard. The present plantations are wild, natural or small

Plantation /vineyards at house hold level. The present situation is due to a number of reasons such as non availability of improved and recommended varieties, cracking of fruits due to fluctuation in soil water. This project aims to collect, evaluate, preserve and recommend suitable varieties for different areas and finally enable the nurserymen or growers to produce their own plants through less cost of production. By exploiting the potential for pomegranates and grapes cultivation in the region along with opening a window of opportunity for the farmers to grow improved varieties of such crop is essential.

Technical parameters and technology transfer aspects:All the activities are in strong coherence with the development and promotion of fruits as per Government policies. However, the technical features of the study includes; collection of improved pomegranates & grapes Germplasm from the whole of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa. Evaluation and preservation of improved Germplasm in the form of gene bank and approval and registration of the improved varieties to give them a legal status from Provincial Seed Council (PSC) and Federal Seed Certification & Registration Department (FSC&RD). Multiplication of improved & recommended varieties with establishment of demonstration orchards/ vineyards to encourage the local growers and training of pomegranate and viticulture are the essential activity of the project. The project would have to encourage the growers of the region to cultivate pomegranates and grapevines like other fruits and vegetables.

Activity 2Research and development of Guava in Kohat Division.

Description: Guava fruits are used mostly as component of juice drinks, as salad or for making jams and jellies. Poor quality seedling adversely affects the guava production. A good nursery can produce true to type planting material scientifically which will be foundation for a good orchard. In view of the high return and the potential for processing, there is a tremendous scope for bringing substantial area under guava plant in Kohat division. It is therefore, imperative to collect different types of guava plants on the basis of qualitative traits and production indicators. Rapid and time saving techniques should be adopted to propagate the desired species.

Justification: In view of the high return and the potential for processing, there is a tremendous scope for bringing substantial area under guava plant in Kohat division. So a rapid and successful propagation technique is required as the area under crop is expanding and there is demand to prepare true to type guava nursery. Propagation of the guava in Kohat is mainly done by sexual means i.e. through seed due to which the quality of the fruit is degrading day by day. There are very vast collections of guava types on farmers’ fields in Kohat where very attractive fruits develop. It is therefore, imperative to collect different types of guava plants on the basis of colour, taste and high yield to study their performance and increase/propagate these plants through asexual mean i.e. cutting/grafting.Technical parameters and technology transfer aspects:This activity will focus the utilization of guava propagation by mean of cutting, budding or any other then the common practice adopted by the growers. Hence in minimum time more and true to type guava will be available for the growers. The model orchards in this regard will be planted to observe the comparative effect of both types of plantation.

Activity 3Integrated management of existing evergreen fruit orchards in District Haripur

Description: Citrus (Sweet Orange) of Khanpur and Ghazi are famous but due to various pathological and management problems, citrus orchards production is diminishing. Citrus die back, canker, improper pruning and training are some of the major problems faced in citrus orchards. Litchi and loquat is another novel fruit of district Haripur that is fetching high returns to the farming community. Litchi plants are very expensive its orchards establishment involves sufficient capital. Besides poor management, the existing orchards face threat by pest problem that demands immediate remedial measures.

Justification: It is a global fact that in farming, fruit orchards and vegetable culture are the most lucrative businesses where maximum return is obtained per unit area. The main aim of this project is to strengthen evergreen fruits orchards in Hazara.

Technical parameters and technology transfer aspects:A multiple dimensional approach to address the issues of low yield and hurdles in the propagation of such a high cost fruit varieties is under consideration in this activity.

Activity 4Research and Development on Caralluma (Chunga) in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa.

Description: Barani Agricultural Research Station, Kohat is the only institution engaged in research activities pertaining to rain fed conditions. Sixty percent of the total cultivated area is rain fed whereas around seventy percent of the population is directly or in directly engaged in agricultural activities.

Since the occurrence of rain fall is un-certain in the barani area due to which

complete crop fails and the farmers suffer from economic losses. Thus it is

7

imperative to carry out an extensive research on evolving the adaptable high value vegetable crops like Caralluma (Chunga) that needs too much low water.

Justification: Caralluma as vegetable fetches very high price in the market. The per kg price ranges from Rs.200-300 depending upon the quality of the crop. So, in order to commercialize this crop as vegetable, research work was started for the first time at Barani Agriculture Research Station Kohat with the idea 1) to develop proper technology for its production 2) To ensure the availability of the crop throughout the year. (3)To enhance the per unit income of the farmers. The soil and climatic conditions of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa are suitable for Caralluma production.

Technical parameters and technology transfer aspects:To know and investigate the standardized procedure for successful plantation of this high value crop. It is therefore essential to find out the ways and means is to be popularize and promote Caralluma. The crop is dual benefits, on the one way it accelerate the farmer’s income and on the other way it is important curative agent in prevention of several diseases.

Activity 5Sugarcane seed production through chip Buds, nodes and standardization of this technology in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa

Description: Sugar crisis clearly highlights the importance of sugarcane in the country. During 2008-09 sugarcane is grown on an area of 98196 hectares in the province where 40% under ratoon cultivation. The quality of seed cane has always been stressed for higher yields and in this regard the SCRI, Mardan has played a key role.

A new technology chipped from seed cane, raised on nursery beds and then transplanted in the main field is the alternative for the huge demand for seed cane. Usually 80-100 mounds per acre seed cane are required as planting material. This method reduces seed amount up to 15 to 20 maunds per hectare. Chipped bud nursery would allow more time for the preceding crop to get mature and harvested. This way less seed will be required to cover wide area.

Justification: The application and adaptation of new techniques could contribute to save a lot of human, financial and other resources. Additionally in less time the precious Germplasm should be protected and multiplied further to get extra ordinary more plantations with rapidity and space other then manual plantation.

Technical parameters and technology transfer aspects:The activity is discussed at various panels of experts and also in consideration in other sugar cane producing countries like, India, USA, and Canada etc. The activities are adoptable and successful. The utilization of Chip bud and replacement of the sugar cane sets will obviously reduce the seed cost, transportation charges and additionally would be helpful to the farmers in getting sugar cane and Maize crop simultaneously at the same piece of land.

Activity 6Promotion of cotton in Southern Districts of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa.

Description: There is large potential for cotton cultivation in southern part of the province. Cotton cultivation in these areas will help in achieving the cotton production targets in envisaged in cotton vision 2015. The existing research system has the capability for the research and development of cotton in the respective target areas. The present activity is designed to carry out research to organize, improve, high yielding and good quality varieties having great export potential and to develop packages of production technology to the growers of the province.

8

Justification: Due to the suitability of the soil and climatic conditions, Pakistan Central Cotton Committee (PCCC) established a Cotton Research Section at D.I.Khan in 1966 with very limited technical and financial facilities. The area and production of cotton has constantly been declining in the province.To avert this situation it is proposed to start the Cotton Research Development Project with a provision of facilities like technical staff, farm machinery, laboratory equipment, transport and audio-visual equipment and data processing facilities.

Technical parameters and technology transfer aspects:The promotion of cotton crop in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa will not only reduce the problems of insect/pest hazards. Additionally, the promotion of textile industries and creation of job is another aspect through this intervention. Due to the climate change new adaptation and area would be important to reduce sudden losses and ensure frequent availability for the textile industries.

Activity 7Evaluation and screening of stress tolerant wheat varieties under hydroponic conditions.

Description: In Khyber Pakhtunkhwa only 33% of the cultivated area comes under irrigation and the rest is rain dependent. Evaluation of the crops such as wheat, maize and all others can be very rapid and easy to investigate under the controlled environment. Thus, the aim of this project is, authentic and result oriented mechanism for crop growth in details to address the issues like drought resistant, salt resistant and other phytotoxic materials in wheat. The scope of the project can be further widened to other crops and vegetables of high economic concern.

Justification: In this activity variety screening on the basis of salts concentrations, root length response to various water or moisture regimes will be tested to evaluate the suitable variety of wheat that could with stand to such stresses.

Technical parameters and technology transfer aspects:The Project activity focused on the screening and evaluation of suitable varieties of wheat tolerate to A-biotic stresses. All the varieties will be tested under hydroponic conditions where the desirable varieties will be selected on the basis of scientific information. The selected and identified variety plantation under the drought or barani area will prove its efficiency for maximum return and will obviously enhance or ensure higher yield in drought areas.

Activity 8Rice Research and Development in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa

Description: The project aims at the strengthening of rice research with special emphasis on the development of improved paddy varieties, modern production technologies and production of pure and good quality seed. The Agricultural Research institutes at D.I. Khan and Mingora have highly qualified staff in the field of rice Breeding and Agronomy; however the existing staff and finances are inadequate to cope with the challenges of the enormously increasing acreage, population and high prices. All existing infrastructural facilities of Agricultural Research Institute, (South) D. I. Khan and Agricultural Research Institute, (North), Mingora, Swat that include land, irrigation facilities, machinery and equipment, offices, laboratories, watch and ward staff (both technical and ministerial) etc will be utilized.

Justification: Rice is the third most important food grain crop of the province after wheat and maize. It is grown on an area of about 59.4 thousand hectares with a total production of 177.5 thousand tons annually in the province. High

9

temperatures and long sunny days of Dera Ismail Khan are the best climatic conditions suitable for rice cultivation. The total area of D.I. Khan is 2.2 million acres out of which cultivated area is 0.74 million acres. Irrigated area accounts for 0.259 million acres while the rest 0.481 million acres is rain fed. Currently the area under rice in D.I.Khan is 60,000 acres (one fifth of the total irrigated area) with the paddy production of 52,000 tones. Especially with the commissioning of CRBC an additional 50,000 acres area has been brought under irrigation in D.I. Khan thus resulting in the increase in rice area.

Technical parameters and technology transfer aspects:The exploring new areas for rice and development of local varieties in the province not only help solving the food crises but also generate more earning for the poor farmers to being in touched with agricultural profession. The quality and production both horizontally and vertically is the demand of the huge population for survival.

Activity 9Standardizing micro propagation techniques for hardwood fruit plants

Description: Micro propagation or In Vitro propagation techniques for multiplication of fruit plants are initially costly, and require specialized control environment for the production of millions of fruit saplings once the protocol for growing media and root shoot are standardized in very little space. The subsequent multiplication does not require any specialized discourse. High returns of fruit orchards, the demand for quality fruit saplings is increasing every year. Therefore there is a need of developing / standardizing protocols for quick multiplication of the mentioned fruit plants.

Justification: This activity very important and carries economic importance for both the farmers as well as province. Once the protocols and techniques are standardized, the sapling requirements of Sindh, Baluchistan and Punjab will be met especially in case of date palm, litchi and olives. Sufficient revenue will be generated. Basic research will be conducted at ARI Tarnab, Peshawar. Plant propagules will be handed over to research stations and commercial nurseries in Mingora, Swabi, Baffa, Haripur, Bannu and DIKhan in addition to ARI Tarnab for development and maintenance of saplings.

Technical parameters and technology transfer aspects:Establishment of protocols for specific crops/fruits species is essential in lab work. In Tissue culture lot of true to types propagates can be formed even from a single plant or organ. Its role cannot be eliminated when the mother plant is limited or unique. The following steps are important while working invitroExplants isolation – Virtually any part of the plant can be used as explants like vegetative parts (Shoot tip, meristem, leaves, stems, roots) or reproductive parts (Anthers, pollen, ovules, embryo, seed, spores). Surface sterilization – Explants are surface sterilized by treating it with disinfectant solution of suitable concentration for a specific period. Ethyl alcohol, bromine water, mercuric chloride, silver nitrate, sodium hypochlorite, calcium hypochlorite etc. can be used as disinfectant.Washing – Washed with water.Establishment of explants on appropriate medium – There is no one universal culture medium; however modifications of Murashige and Skoog basal medium (Murashige and Skoog, 1962) are most frequently used.Multiplication of shoots or somatic embryo formation (rapid) uses a defined culture medium (Stage II).In this stage, rapid multiplication of the regenerative system is carried out for obtaining large number of shoots. About 4.3 X 107 shoots can be produced from single starting explants in a year. Cultures obtained from stage I are

10

http://theagricos.com/tissue-culture/tissue-culture-techniques/

placed on a suitable medium. Normally, medium for stage I and II is same, but cytokinin proportion is increased for stage II to produce numerous shoots. This stage can be repeated a few cycles until a desired number of shoots are developed to carry out for rooting. Factors which can affect shoot multiplication are physiological status of plant material, culture media, and culture environment.

Rooting of regenerated shoots or germination of Somatic embryos in vitro (stage III)In this stage, shoots or shoot clusters from stage II are prepared to transfer to soil. Shoots are separated manually from clusters and transferred on a rooting medium containing an auxin. Elongation of shoots prior to rooting, rooting of shoots (individual or clumps), and pre-hardening cultures to improve survival are some of the activities carried under this stage. Hardening (Stage IV)Transfer of plantlets to sterilized soil for hardening under greenhouse environment. In the proposed project a mother orchard of 2.5 acres of the five hardwood fruit species, date palm, litchi, olive, pecan nut and citrus will be planted from which plant parts will be collected at regular intervals for running the micro propagation processes. The hardened plantlets during Stage IV will be also shifted to horticulture sections at various research stations / institutes for rapid development and creating space within the micro propagation unit at Tarnab for next batch. Mean while local nursery owners will be encouraged to enter into a long term public private partnership for development of broad based fruit plant nursery industry on solid footings. They will be assisted in establishing greenhouses and lath houses and will be supplied with rooted plantlets. They will be trained eventfully so that they conduct the onward process of micro propagation successfully. Similarly, students of biotechnology and horticulture will be encouraged for internships for getting practical knowledge and experience. After successful training during internships, these students will be in a position to operate independent business or get employment in similar institutions.

Activity 10Value addition of fruits and vegetables through public private partnership

Description: The measurable quantities and qualitative losses in fruits & vegetables after harvesting is common and these changes in fresh products can’t be stopped but can be slow down within certain limit. In Pakistan post harvest losses in fruits and vegetables between the production and consumption periods are estimated to average about 35% and range from 25% to 40%, which are worth billion rupees per annum. By value addition we can convert these losses into dollars benefits This scheme is important to prevent the fresh fruit losses at local levels and return some income to the farmers along with value addition and shelf life of the commodity from their orchards usually in smaller quantity is the main hindrance for orientation towards food processing. Under the given scheme the involvement of all stack holders such as food technologist, farmers and domestic growers shall bring into a plate farm to value their commodity and prevent huge natural resources.

Justification: The scheme is fully justified in its objectives. There are no or little chances of failure under unavoidable circumstances, otherwise the farmer’s contribution will add as per their response to intensify the pace of the scheme tasks.

Technical parameters and technology transfer aspects:In Khyber Pakhtunkhwa total production of fruits was 504834 tones &

11

vegetables was 333341 tones (Agril: Statistics of Pakistan 2008). Post harvest losses on the average of 30% comes to Fruits 151450 tones, Vegetables 100002 tones, monetary loss for fruits @ Rs.10, 000 per ton. (15.2 billion rupees), Monetary loss for vegetables @ Rs.8, 000 per ton (8.00 billion rupees) has been annually reported. Total loss 23.15 billion rupees. This huge loss of 23.15 billion rupees can be minimized through the development of small and medium fruit and vegetable processing enterprises.

Activity 11Strengthening of Agriculture Research Directorate Peshawar

Description: The office of the Director General Research needs strengthening in terms of staff to cater to the need of the hour. The Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Agricultural University Peshawar has provided 6 kanal of land for the construction of the offices for the headquarters of the Research System at the Malakandher Farm. The detail drawing and cost estimates are annexed with this PC-1.

Justification: To cope with the needs of present electronic era the offices will be equipped with latest technologies for efficient maintenance of official records, correspondence, coordination with in and with other organizations and others.

Technical parameters and technology transfer aspects:To share the existing work burden and to combat with the future needs. The strengthening and quality improvement of the system an updated fully equipped directorate is essential. Additionally, to assigned planned development work a good set up is the need of the day. Monitoring, Evaluation and development in the existing setup is the pre requisites for a better future.

Activity 12Strengthening of Agricultural Research Station Baffa Mansehra

Description: Agricultural Research Station Baffa Mansehra carries out research on food crops, vegetables and fruits commonly grown in Hazara Division, and develops packages of technologies for the growers in order to increase their crop productivity.

Justification: The existing infrastructure at Agric. Res. Station Baffa, Mansehra is quite insufficient. The Total available land is just 130-kanals, out of which, only 80-kanals is under cultivation. This meager piece of land cannot meet the research and seed requirements of all the five Districts of Hazara Division. There is a vital need of at least 200 kanals land, which has to be purchased preferably in District Mansehra for the purpose. Proper-cemented drains and water channel are the utmost need of the Station. To check the trespassing and safeguard the Government property, barbed wire fencing is one of the basic requirements of the Station.

Technical parameters and technology transfer aspects:For elevating the existing scope and achieving the more targets, space, storage facilities and allied requisites are essential. Therefore, the strengthening of Baffa station is crucial to mitigate the future demands for high value fruits species.

Activity 13Rehabilitation of irrigation facilities at BARS Kohat.

Description: The dire and basic requirements for research activities in rain-fed areas, the availability of life saving water resources to grow crops on sustainable basis with techniques of crop production for the well beings. Under the scarce water source of this station efforts are being carried to evaluated the best procedure to ensure crop growth. Best crop varieties and technologies can be developed by rehabilitation of the existing water sources. This project has been planned with the objectives of evolving high yielding, drought tolerant crops varieties/ technologies. Thus the project is in perfect harmony with the objectives of the agricultural sector.

12

Justification; Barani Agricultural Research Station, Kohat is located in the semi-arid region of Kohat where annual rainfall is 412 mm. Ground water is very deep and limited in this particular premise. At the same time canal water from Tanda Dam is also very limited and uncertain. For irrigation purpose two tube wells were dug under the Barani Area Development Project, Phase-I. Therefore, a tube well and watercourse would be the only solution to enhance the irrigation efficiency.

Technical parameters and technology transfer aspects:Irrigation facility with lining of proper channels will obviously ensure crop growth and reduces the risk in this regard.

Activity 14Strengthening Outreach Coordinating Activities (SORCA) in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa.

Description: Outreach predominantly involves the packaging and delivery of the latest research based technology to solve production and marketing problems of agriculture, livestock and rural families living in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa. Moreover, it facilitates a two way flow of information. The key elements of the policy and strategy should be generation of economic growth and its equitable sharing with the poor’s and to effect human resource development and provisions of basic social services and specially anti-poverty programs for the most disadvantaged and needy groups. In line with these, the Outreach Cell has brought swift policy shift in its activities to help in transferring the new developed production technologies of agricultural commodities for accelerating economic growth with emphasis on wider disposal of its economic benefits.

Justification: Agriculture research is responsible for generation of economically viable production technology, while Agriculture Extension and Outreach are involved in dissemination of the improved production technology to various stake holders and also helping in processing and marketing of agricultural produce. The pace of work has been accelerated with rapid application and innovative approaches.

Technical parameters and technology transfer aspects:Trainings, research knowledge dissemination on scientific basis are the sole responsibility of this activity. On the basis of available information, feedback and viewing poor performance of the individual, such activity is utmost urgent to harness the capacity of the scientist and farmers to boost up Agriculture Production.

In case of revised projects, provide:

Project approved history along with PSDP allocations, releases and expenditure.

This project was approved by PDWP in its meeting held on 07/05/2012 for total cost of Rs. 291.700 million for the period from July, 2011-12 to June 2014-15. Administrative Approval of the scheme was issued on 20/06/2012 and the funds were released by the Finance Department accordingly. However, due to late approval and release of funds, no expenditure was made during 2011-12. In the year 2012-13, the activities on revenue side were started accordingly after release of funds but civil works under main component of Construction of Directorate could not be started due to less allocation. Furthermore, in 2013-14 the Government introduced the Market Rate System (MRS)-2013 and consultancy instead of CSR System for the Civil works, due to which the cost of the project exceeded. The same Detail Cost Estimates were discussed with Administration department and P&D Department and it was agreed to keep the cost of the project within the limit and DCEs were prepared by C&W with some reduction in scope of works with slight decrease of 0.7% in total cost and 3.1% under capital Head (Civil works). The detail is given as under:

Justification for revision of PC-I and variation in scope of project if applicable

The civil work of the original PC-1 was based on the CSR and escalation rate of 2011-12.

Hence the Detail Cost Estimates (DCEs) were prepared accordingly. But in 2013-14 the

Government has introduced a new system for civil work i.e Market Rate System and

Consultancy charges. Due to implementation of such policy the cost of Civil work was

exceeded the original cost. However, the Administration department advised to reduce the

scope of work for Directorate of Agriculture Research and complete the civil work

immediately with in the already approved cost. Hence, the project is being revised only

for Civil work given under the Activity No. 10, 11, 12 and 13 respectively.

11: Benefits Of The Project And Analysis

Benefits & analysis of activity 1:

Financial benefitsPer unit income from horticulture produce is more than cereal and field crop. Especially income from fruits and fruit plants are more than other agricultural crops. For example in open market the maximum price of 1 kg potatoes tubers worth Rs. 20 while price for 1 kg fruit of improved pomegranate variety i.e. Tarnab Gulabi worth more than Rs.120.

Economic benefitsThroughout the world normally fruits are expensive than other crops. Horticultural industry will flourish and more orchards/ vineyards will be established. Once, there are more plantations of improved varieties available on the fields. More emphasis would be given to the export-oriented pomegranates & grape production. The quality of the produce will be improved by adopting IPM and ICM techniques and not only the province but also the country would get its true place in the world market. The country would get more than now it is getting. The GDP rate, which is 8.5 %, the highest in the last decades can be easily brought to 9% & above, which the present democratic Govt. is striving hard.

Social benefits This project will encourage the growers to cultivate and establish new pomegranates orchards & vineyards. These new orchards/ vineyards will be a source of income and provides more job and all the related industries will be flourished The strengthened research program would go long way in creating awareness among the growers and enabling them to use their limited lands to the optimum exploitative limit in a sustainable

51

http://www.mopd.gov.pk/

manner. This Pomegranate and viticulture project would facilitate fruit growers in improving their skills for economic prosperity of the area by:

Searching improved pomegranates & grape varieties from the available gene bank without any new import

Ensuring the availability of improved pomegranates & grape plants with known varieties and cost effective production technologies.

Introducing successfully tested high value pomegranates & grape varieties Developing packages of technologies for improved production and export

marketing.


Financial benefitsDue to high return and the potential for processing, there is a tremendous scope for bringing substantial area under guava plant in Kohat division. So a rapid and successful propagation technique is required as the area under crop is expanding and there is demand to prepare true to type guava nursery. Propagation of the guava in Kohat is mainly done by sexual means i.e. through seed due to which the quality of the fruit is degrading day by day. There are very vast collections of guava types on farmers’ fields in Kohat where very attractive fruits develop. It is therefore, imperative to collect different types of guava plants on the basis of colour, taste and high yield to study their performance and increase/propagate. Barani Agricultural Research Station has been mandated to research and introduce good quality and true to type plants. So, in order to improve the quality and quantity of guava, this project is aimed with the idea 1) to develop proper technology for its propagation to get true to types plants 2) To educate farmers to adapt advance production technology 3)To enhance the per unit income of the farmers. With implementation of this project, crop research and the pace of development would be magnified. By virtue of which true to type fruit plants will be provided to the farmers. Thus the financial position of the stations and stakeholders would be enhanced. That will have, certainly, a positive impact on crop production. The new improved technology aims to reduce the cost of production and hence the production goes up. The crop production of per unit area would be enhanced and the farming community would get more income of their crop produce.

Economic benefitsKohat is famous for guava production throughout the province. But the greatest handicap in guava plantation is indiscriminate multiplication of plants from undesirable sources by nurserymen. Proper care is not exercised in the selection of scion material from really outstanding and disease free mother trees. The result is that a large number of low grade guava plants are distributed and planted in the field every year. These trees become a permanent liability to the growers as no amount of fertilization and care can change their genetic qualities. Non-availability of quality planting materials and consequent substitution of poor quality seedling adversely affect the guava production. In spite of the fact that a large number of nurseries have been established, there is an acute shortage of quality planting material. The initial planting material is the basic requirement on which the final crop depend both in quality and quantity. A good nursery can produce true to type planting material scientifically which will be foundation for a good orchard. In view of the high return and the potential for processing, there is a tremendous scope for bringing substantial area under guava plant in Kohat division. So a rapid and successful propagation technique is required as the area under crop is expanding and there is demand to prepare true to type guava nursery. Propagation of the guava in

52


Kohat is mainly done by sexual means i.e. through seed due to which the quality of the fruit is degrading day by day. There are very vast collections of guava types on farmers’ fields in Kohat where very attractive fruits develop. It is therefore, imperative to collect different types of guava plants on the basis of colour, taste and high yield to study their performance and increase/propagate these plants through asexual mean i.e. cutting/grafting.

Social benefitsThe project will create awareness among the farmers of the community, enabling them to use their lands to the optimum exploitative limit in a sustainable manner. The project will support/facilitate farmers in improving their agriculture for economic prosperity of the area by:

Ensuring the availability of true to type’s guava fruit nursery. Introducing successfully a good method of guava propagation. Developing packages of technologies and their dissemination among the farming

communities.


Financial benefitsThe project activities aim at increasing horticultural activities, in fruit plants production. Since the orchards activities are capital oriented, financial gains during and after the project execution will be at peak. At present in the field of agriculture, no other activities than fruit and vegetable culture can prove more rewarding. Hence by promoting fruit orchards production in the given region will ensure more returns.

Economic benefitsThe project is economically viable as it has both short term as well as long term benefits. Availability of quality fruit fetching high prices and encourage farmers to take interest for establishing more orchards in the area.

Social Benefits:Through capacity building and creating awareness, the farmers will better understand the modern trends in developing fruit orchards of economic interest and hence the overall farm profitability will be boosted which will have long term positive impact on the socio-economic conditions of the farming community.


Financial benefitsImproved dry land agriculture holds the key to sustainable food and livelihood for more than 60% of our population. Land and water management are important activities of sustainable farming practices in dry land area. Water is the life of all activities and progress in barani & irrigated areas. In order to manage scare water resources, it is necessary to have better understanding of moisture retention by soils and its availability to plants, water losses and their control, ways of improving Water Use Efficiency (WUE), water harvesting procedures and principles, and practices of protective irrigation. In order to escape the rain/irrigation uncertainty and to get maximum production, introduction / cultivation of high value crops under low moisture requirements is necessary. With implementation of this project, crop research and the pace of development would be magnified. By virtue of which more vegetable would be developed. Thus the financial position of the stations and stakeholders would be enhanced. That will have, certainly, a positive impact on crop production. The new improved technology aims to lessen the cost of production and shoot the production up.

53



The crop production of per unit area would be enhanced and the farming community would get more income of their crop produce.

Economic benefitsCaralluma as vegetable fetches very high price in the market. The per kg price ranges from Rs.200-300, depending upon the quality of the crop. While as ornamental the price of one pot in U.S.A is $ 15-20.The natural production of Caralluma starts from December and is available in the market till May. The quality of the crop depends upon the area and rainfall as it is only grown in the hilly area.

So, in order to commercialize this crop as vegetable, Research work was started for the first time at Barani Agriculture Research Station Kohat with the idea 1) to develop proper technology for its production 2) To prolong the availability of the crop throughout the year 3)To enhance the per unit income of the farmers.

Social benefits The project will create awareness among the farmers of the community, enabling them to use their lands to the optimum exploitative limit in a sustainable manner. The project will support/facilitate farmers in improving their agriculture for economic prosperity of the area by:

Ensuring the availability of this nontraditional vegetable and cost effective production technology.

Introducing successfully tested high value non-conventional vegetable production.

Developing packages of technologies and their dissemination among the farming communities.


Financial benefitsThe goal of the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Agricultural Research System is to undertake research and development work that will ultimately improve the productivity and sustainability of the agricultural sector in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa. We are aware that limited sources of public funding in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa demands for greater accountability of research managers because the public as well as the donor agencies are increasingly becoming concerned about the economic returns to their investments in research.

This project is most expected to yield tremendous benefits by: Propagating promising varieties and improved production technology of target

sugarcane varieties for dissemination to growers. Ensure the supply of high quality seed to the farmers. Train farmers on aspects of crop / soil management and post harvest handling. Income to the project

The project is basically an investment to develop improved sugarcane varieties, packages of production technology and train farmers in cost effective and sustainable sugarcane production system. In addition, the technical information and skill provided by the experts to the community and extension staff regarding improved sugarcane production technology will bring a change in life style. Technology generated as a result of this project would benefit the farming community in the years to come after its completion. Reasonable income within and beyond project life would be generated from sale of quality seed to the farmers year after year on a regular basis.

Economic benefitsThis project has every reason to prove itself as an economically viable activity because the expected return on investment is most likely to be much greater than many would

54


expect. Pakistan is keen to promote sugarcane production in order to meet the requirements of sugar industry from local production. The byproducts of sugar industry i.e. ethanol would earn billions.

Social benefitsThe main beneficiaries of this project would be the farming community (men and women) of Peshawar valley. Sugarcane production is likely to encourage agriculture related business absorbing more and more people in this field. An increase in overall agricultural business would certainly create more and more job opportunities year after year that are likely to improve living standards.


Financial benefitsThere is a good opportunity in five districts of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa pertaining to the cotton production and development.

Economic benefitsAvailability of improved cotton varieties will enhance the economic status of the farming community through high yield with low cost.

Social benefits The project will, however, increase area under cotton crop and enhances yield level and agricultural productivity. The improved and high cotton production at low cost will reduce unemployment & prolong working period for farm laborers at the farms. This will increase the income and socio-economic conditions of the cotton growers in particular and farming community in general.


Financial benefitsThere is more than 50% yield gap exist between barani and irrigated farmers in the province as revealed by the several years’ data. Additionally the barani area is also much more than the irrigated area. To get more crop biomass and yield from the barani wheat and to explore its potential for maximum yield the drought and salinity issues must be addressed. To explore the potential return from the barani land/ salt affected land because, crop improvement is the product of environment*genotype. The semi arid tropical ecology of Pakistan essentially required focusing on the crop species which can withstand under limited water or drought conditions. Additionally such varieties ensure farmers net return and protect them to get rid of hope under less and erratic rain fall situation.

Economic benefitsBy ranking the suitable varieties of wheat for the stresses (A-biotech) will obviously ensure the crop return under different drought or salt levels. To bring the barani wheat yield at par with the irrigated one would help to uplift the farmer’s income level and crop production under the said situation on sustainable basis for longer time.

Social benefits with indicatorThis project will help in ranking of wheat and other crop for water scarcity and performance under the drought and salinity stresses. Information on the basis of crop

55



performance not only save farmers return but there trust also. The crop growth indicators stream line the researcher in variety identification and later on recommendation for different area to contribute efficiently for the well being.


Financial benefitsThe project activity will bring prosperity to the rice growers in terms of high prices they will receive for the production of good quality seed. The evolution of insect pest resistant varieties will minimize the use of insecticide/pesticide so, saving money. The adaptability and seed production of basmati varieties at Gomal, District Tank and in turn their seed increase will fetch more prices for the growers thus people of the area will be benefited and helpful in poverty alleviation. The ultimate increased production will bring financial prosperity among the paddy growers, whole seller and mill owners. The sale of the seed produced at the institute’s level will enhance the total income of the institutes as well. The paddy growers will be having their own seed produced thereby, reducing dependence on other sources like Punjab Seed Corporation etc for seed. The success of water resource conservation technology will result in the efficient utilization of water and other inputs.

Social Benefits:When the project activity is implemented in its true spirit and sense it would improve the socio-economic status of the rice growers by producing good quality seed of improved varieties. Moreover, it will open new avenue for export of rice especially, basmati type to international markets. The vertical and horizontal increase of this crop directly affects socio-economic conditions of the farming community. The use of improved varieties along with appropriate production technology will stabilize rice production and expand area under rice cultivation, thereby raising the living standard of the farming community of the area. The hydrates characteristic of the crop favors to increase humidity thereby refreshing the water and ultimately the climate. Expanding area under rice cultivation would bring the air pollution to nullification through humidifying the climatic conditions. It is a challenge of the day to cultivate rice on major portion of the land to help to minimize food shortage and create the best environment in the area.

Environmental Effect:The project in hand has no ill effect on environment rather it is more environment friendly. The evolution of insect pest resistant varieties will minimize the use of insecticide/pesticide, which will be having no negative impact on the environment. Moreover, the successful demonstration of resource conservation technology will help in reducing emission of methane (green house gas) in the environment.

The proposed planning for rice research and development will benefit the population of these areas by increasing their rice production, land productivity and profitability in the long run.

SWOT Analysis of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Agricultural Research System

Strengths

Highly qualified, well trained and experienced research staff.

Equipped research laboratories were available before the crisis, however, they have severely been damaged during the crisis such as Flood, Taliban interference, Earth quake and related disaster at various institutes/stations

Multidisciplinary research teams with legitimate approaches to farmer problem.

A network of well distributed research centers in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa.

Tremendous experience of working with foreign donor projects.

All of the computers, printers, scanners etc., at ARI Mingora were either damaged or stolen during the Taliban crisis and new purchases are needed to rehabilitate the EB section.

Made significant contributions through successful strategic interventions at selected locations around Khyber Pakhtunkhwa.

Weaknesses

Poor service structure resulted in brain drain to western countries.

Pooled transport system and centralization of financial powers.

Poor contacts with national and international research organizations.

Most scientists are short of writing skills and technical knowledge in new Enterprises including computer literacy.

Need for self-discipline: most cannot work without supervision.

Counterproductive technical papers used for career promotion.

Poor in-service training.

Channels of communication too long to be effective.

Opportunities

Great chances for improved collaboration and efficiency through merger of similar organization i.e., research, education and extension.

Potential for improved effectiveness and efficiency through restructuring of service structure.

Excellent opportunities for collaboration with public research and extension organizations, private companies and NGOs.

Better services and more tangible benefits for researchers would uplift their lost moral.

Great opportunities for collaboration with all stakeholders.

Greater opportunity for well thought out research interventions as has been successful in the past.

The incumbent agriculture minister is highly distinguished and most effective in getting funds from the incumbent government.

The existing wider yield gap is also a great opportunity. We are far below the achievable potential.

Threats

Prevailing economic situation: unlikely that Khyber Pakhtunkhwa government will increase budgetary allocations.

Instability in macro-economic and political environment. As a result foreign donors are withdrawing.

Pressure from terrorists may force closures of projects.

Hostile socio-economic environment threatens research operations and harassment of researchers.

Unpredictable fuel supplies and public strikes can discontinue research activities at critical stages.

From the above table it is clear that the performance of the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa research system is appreciable because investment per researcher in Pakistan is the lowest in selected countries as well as investment in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa research is the lowest within Pakistan as shown in figures below. Moreover, researchers in all other provinces are better off in terms of service structure etc than researchers in Khyber

69

Pakhtunkhwa. Even then Khyber Pakhtunkhwa researchers have made comparable achievements. However, the rate of deterioration in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa research has exacerbated in recent years mainly attributable to extremely poor service structure and funding. Researchers in the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa research system avail extremely reduced promotion opportunities, low salary levels, and few other incentives. This has led to a brain drain of researchers to universities, non-research agencies, or to opportunities outside Pakistan.Source: International Food Policy Research Institute (IFPRI) ASTI Report 2007.
