Yesterday flour in Karachi had reached Rs 190 per kg while according to the data of Pakistan Bureau of Statistics on October 22, the price of a 20 kg bag of flour was around Rs 3412 while the maximum reported price was Rs 3540. The situation suggests that the government may not have known that the budget of every household has been depleted. In recent days, the encouraging news for the farmers came that the purchase price of wheat per maund has been fixed at Rs. A farmer faces the cost of fertilizer, diesel bill, tubewell electricity bill, purchase of seeds, hires an employee to carry out various farm activities, then his income is also associated with other expenses throughout the year, children's fees, daughter's wedding expenses, sick mother's medicine, household food and drink expenses, traveling expenses, etc. When he sows wheat, he waits for rain, often he is afraid of floods and then he is worried about drought, tubewell expenses, due to climate change, all kinds of threats are coming down on him from time to time and then the real fear is the mafias who are waiting to know how to buy his crop at a high price. In every sector of Pakistan, in every market, in every office, in every field, whether it is industry and craft or agriculture, the leadership of these mafias is clearly visible everywhere, Pakistan does not even solve its agricultural problems, says the American Department of Agriculture, which states that one of the reasons for the reduction in the cultivated area of wheat is also the reason that the government purchase remains low. This does not mean that the reason for every shortage is only government purchases, but it is certain that the economic decisions of the farmer affect the production, if he feels that there is a risk in the production of wheat and he sees a higher profit in the alternative crop, then he will grow another crop on his land. How fast is the price of flour increasing in Karachi? The importance of water in Pakistan is not limited to wheat production. The same water is required for cotton, rice, pulses, sugarcane, vegetables, gardens and livestock. Now floods have become normal. Therefore, agricultural reform does not mean only more wheat area but water conservation, maintaining soil fertility, suitable varieties of seeds, accurate crop information, modern weather forecasting and ensuring timely information to farmers. It is also important to give agricultural awareness to the farmers.
