The average yield in Punjab and Sindh is 2.9 tons\/hectare, while the average yield of wheat in KP is 1.56 tons\/hectare. Various factors such as a lack of high-yielding varieties, water shortages, and uneven pesticide and fertilizer applications contribute to the lower yield. The choice of seed, more than any other factor, determines the outcome of a crop.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The annual wheat seed requirement of KP is approximately 30,000 tons, while only 7 percent (2,100 tons) of certified wheat seed is available to farmers, according to the Federal Seed Certification and Registration Department. The remaining seed comes from informal sources, such as farmers&#8217; saved seed or seed obtained from fellow farmers, middlemen, or village shops, where information about the source of the variety is often unknown.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Under the cluster approach, 250 farmers in Sawal Dher, District Mardan, will receive basic wheat seed for 250 acres of land, blended fertilizer, plant stimulant, and support \u2013 a move aimed at strengthening the foundation of the wheat farming community in the region. This initiative will ensure that certified seed is available to local farmers in District Mardan and adjoining districts of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa in the years to come. The use of certified wheat seed will guarantee an increase in yield by 15-20%, reducing KP&#8217;s reliance on other provinces for major staple crops.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Fazal Wahab, Director of Planning at the Agriculture Research in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, expressed his enthusiasm, saying, &#8220;This project is a significant step toward modernizing wheat seed production in our region. We believe it will not only benefit the farmers but also help Khyber Pakhtunkhwa maintain its position as a major wheat producer in Pakistan.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The key to the success of the seed cluster approach lies in the training and support provided to selected seed growers. These growers will receive comprehensive training in certified seed production techniques, courtesy of the Agricultural Research KP and the Federal Seed Certification and Registration Department. Armed with this knowledge, they will produce high-quality seeds that meet required standards.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Akbar Ali Shah, a progressive grower from Mardan, expressed his optimism, noting, &#8220;I am excited about this project as it offers us an opportunity to contribute to our community&#8217;s growth and produce better wheat seeds. This initiative will not only increase our income but also boost the region&#8217;s agriculture.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The &#8220;Enhancing Wheat Seed Production through Seed Cluster Approach&#8221; project embodies a collective effort to empower local farmers, improve crop yield, and fortify KP&#8217;s standing as a major wheat producer. It is anticipated that this innovative approach will provide long-term benefits for the farming community in Mardan and contribute to the prosperity of the region&#8217;s agriculture.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Mardan: In a groundbreaking initiative aimed at bolstering Pakistan&#8217;s agricultural sector, the USAID&#8217;s Economic Recovery and Development Activity, in collaboration with the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KP) Agriculture Research Department and local&hellip;
