PM Agricultural Package 2023 For Farmers

The Pakistani government will provide farmers and the agricultural industry with the most aid possible. All advice and recommendations ought to be directed towards raising and enhancing production while lowering the cost of imports. More than half of Pakistan’s population works in agriculture, making it a predominantly agricultural nation.

Since then, 22 lakh 87 thousand 559 farmers have registered under it, and 1390 of them have received coverage. Although millions of rupees have been allocated as compensation, hundreds of farmers have not received any money for crop loss due to technological issues.
