SUNFLOWER AREA AND PRODUCTION VARIABILITY IN PAKISTAN
in sunflower acreage and production are due to its price on the market. In the period of last 15 years, the sunflower acreage in Pakistan expended from 29,500 to 107,700 ha. The sunflower production rose at the annual rate of 9.9%, comprised of a 9.7% expansion in acreage and a minor improvement in productivity amounting to 0.16%.
Objectives Sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.) is a major oilseed crop grown for its edible oil across the globe, including Pakistan. The production of edible oil in Pakistan is less than the
Sunflower area and production variability in Pakistan
In 1960,s first time sunflower was grown in Pakistan as a source of edible oil and to fulfill the gap between consumption of edible oil and country own production (Burney et al., 1990).
Sunflower is presently considered an important oilseed and a majority of the people in Pakistan prefers sunflower oil for cooking. Hamid et al. (1999) reported that two sizes of beef pieces were used for pickle preparation and later stored in three commercial edible oils, i.e., canola oil, sunflower oil and soybean oil.
Frontiers | Assessing the factors of economic
Considering the growing pressure of the edible oil imports bill on Pakistan’s national accounts, the significance of sunflower cultivation is gaining more attention to meet the domestic edible oil demand. Given the declining area for sunflower production, this study explored the factors of economic and environmental inefficiencies affecting sunflower growers in Pakistan. The study adopted

SUNFLOWER: ESSENTIAL EDIBLE OIL CROP IN PAKISTAN
In Pakistan it is grown on an area of 872 thousand acres with 554 thousand tons of seed and 211 tons of oil. Its achene contains 40-50% oil and 23% protein content. Sunflower oil is exclusively used for cooking purpose ; rich in vitamin A, D and contains 60% poly unsaturated fatty acids as well as 16% oleic acid and 76% linoleic acid.
Sunflower gives 33 thousand tons of oil. In the economy of Pakistan, oilseed crops play a major share and contribute more than 17% to meet the domestic edible oil requirement. Sunflower contributes about 11% to domestic edible oil production (GOP, 2021)). However, a wide gap exists in this sector which can be improved for enhancing local
- Is sunflower a good source of edible oil in Pakistan?
- Just, 40 years back around, a non-traditional crop of sunflower is introduced in Pakistan as the chief source of edible oil. Keeping in view the quality of edible oil, research activities in sunflower crop was initiated grudgingly due to be deficient in trained expertise in Pakistan.
- How much sunflower oil does India produce?
- In the 2018/19 crop year, India produced 9.4 million metric tons (211 million pounds) of sunflower oil. That accounted for 12% of the world¡¯s production. Sunflower oil is used in both food and industrial applications.
- Is sunflower a major oilseed crop in Pakistan?
- Sunflower became a major oilseed crop in Pakistan. Pakistan is facing a shortage of edible oil. Need to improve the oil and seed yield of sunflower. Correlation study is necessary to find out the relationship between two traits. Path analysis tells about the direct and indirect effect of different traits on yield and on yield related traits.
- Is there a hybrid sunflower crop in Pakistan?
- Uptill now, the entire area of 106 thousand hectare of sunflower crop in Pakistan is still under the cultivation of exotic hybrids. However, the role of Oilseeds Research Institute, Faisalabad in this regard, is commendable as developed first National Hybrid of sunflower (FH 331) some years back in the country.
