پاکستان میں خریف کپاس کا ہدف حاصل نہ ہوسکا، ربیع فصلوں کے لیے پانی کی قلت

Pakistan's Kharif 2026-27 cotton output fell short, with an estimated 6.7 million bales produced from 1.75 million hectares, significantly below the 9.64 million bale target. The Federal Committee on Agriculture also noted a 22% water shortage for Punjab and Sindh during the upcoming Rabi season, potentially impacting wheat and other winter crops. While sugarcane and rice production estimates show increases, the overall agricultural outlook faces challenges, with only 51% of the required wheat seed available for Rabi 2026-27. This agricultural performance provides general economic context for Pakistan but is unlikely to cause immediate, significant shifts in gold or currency rates.
