Recent trends and developments in Pakistan's agricultural production and trade are discussed. The two major goals of the Pakistani Government are to attain self-sufficiency in food and to earn sufficient foreign exchange to maintain agricultural and industrial development. The use of high-yielding grain varieties, along with expanded irrigation and fertilizer use, has significantly boosted farm output, although many technical and economic problems in agricultural development remain unresolved. Pakistan's foreign trade is on the increase and its flow is shifting from Western Europe to Eastern Europe.
