Contrary to this decision, sources claim that Pakistan possesses sufficient reserves of wheat. The country has reportedly met its annual wheat production target of 32.1 million tons, surpassing it by 1.8%.
Previously, the Caretaker Federal Government of Pakistan had decided to halt the import of wheat. This decision was taken by the Economic Coordination Committee (ECC) due to stable flour prices in the country and an abundance of reserves.
Government sources have disclosed that Pakistan has an ample supply of wheat to meet domestic demands. This decision followed a briefing by the Ministry of National Food Security to the ECC on wheat supply, which received commendation for its efforts.
Overall, despite concerns over wheat reserves, the government’s decision to allow flour export reflects its confidence in meeting the country’s wheat needs while navigating export opportunities.
