  • Why is soybean important in Pakistan?
  • Soybean cultivation in Pakistan was primarily aimed at enhancing the production of edible oil, but it has a little share in domestic production as compared to other oilseed crops including cotton (Gossypium hirsutum), sunflower (Helianthus annuus) and rapeseed (Brassica napus).
  • What are the challenges for soybean cultivation in Pakistan?
  • Along with other several challenges for soybean cultivation in Pakistan, the non-existence of improved production technology is of great concern. Production technology of soybean is as old as are the varieties i.e., >20 years old.
  • How much soybean oil is produced in Pakistan?
  • It is estimated that 2% of soybean production is consumed by humans directly as food, which amounts to an approximately 3 MMT. In Pakistan Soybean oil production increased up to 260 (Tons) in year 2017 as compared to 240 (Tons) in 2016. 2
