00:00 China's seed production in sesame seeds exceeded $290.66 million from January to December 2023, which is 126.29% year-on-year.
00:13 According to the General Administration of Customs of China, China had imported 166,682.987 tonnes of sesame seeds from Pakistan in 2023.
00:25 This represents a 96.13% increase in volume, which amounts to $290.66 million, while in 2022, the cost of 84,985.32 tonnes was $128.44 million.
00:43 During 2023, Pakistan's China exceeded $3.459 billion, which is 1.4% more year-on-year.
00:54 According to the GACC figures, China had imported 912,814.577 tonnes of sesame seeds from around the world in 2023.
01:09 Niger was the third-largest country in the world to produce 1,92,529.528 tonnes of $309.51 million in the third year in a row.
01:23 After that, Pakistan was at third place with $290.66 million and Tanzania with $249.83 million.
01:33 In 2023, Pakistan contributed 19% of the total production of sesame seeds to China from January to December.
01:41 The main reason for this is that in the FTA phase 2 between Pakistan and China, they included sesame seeds and under its free trade agreement,
01:52 the demand for China was fulfilled by Pakistan's sesame crops. And the month of the year when Pakistan's sesame crops come in, like August to September,
02:11 at that time, no crop in the world is available.
02:17 First of all, there is a yearly demand for 1.5 million tonnes of oil in China, of which about 1 million tonnes are imported.
02:28 The standard of the Chinese people is improving, and the demand is still increasing.
02:33 Second, China's local crop demand is increasing, so the demand for local crops is decreasing, which will require China to import more oil.
02:42 Third, in 2019, China's Commercial Office and our company jointly sold Pakistani oil to China Customs and sold it at zero tariff.
02:53 Since 2020, China's oil market has been competitive with Pakistan's and Africa's.
02:59 Fourth, oil prices have been increasing from 2022 to 2023, which has given the Pakistani oil producers and producers a lot of courage to export and import.
03:11 Due to the unwavering efforts of the loyal and provincial governments, the production of sesame seeds in the country during the harvest season was an extraordinary 187% compared to the harvest of this year.
03:25 Sesame seeds were harvested more than 3,99,493 hectares, while in the same period of last year, 149,400 hectares were harvested.
03:35 Punjab, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa and the Subahi Mahekma-e-Zaraat of Balochistan are playing an important role in obtaining more oil seeds than the production of seeds.
03:45 It is worth mentioning that Punjab is the third largest province, which makes up 95% of the sesame production.
03:52 After that, Sindh is 2.1% and Balochistan is 2.2%.
03:56 In the oil production, a dangerous increase of 79% from 442 kg per hectare to 750 kg per hectare was seen, which is under the national program to increase the seeds of oil.
04:09 The desire to export sesame seeds in Pakistan is now 10 times more than in the past 10 years, and the desire to plant sesame seeds in Pakistan has had a very surprising effect on the Chinese market and the international market.
04:24 In addition, I personally believe that there is still a great opportunity for improvement in Pakistani oil, especially through inter-relations such as quality control and transportation, which can help the Pakistani people to make more income.
04:37 There is a lot of potential for this because a lot of dry land is also being used for sesame production, which was previously only used by the river regions, which we call the river.
04:54 Now, dry land and many other commodities are being transferred to sesame because there is a lot of potential for farmers.
05:06 The reason for this is that the cost is very low, the role of weather is very beneficial due to the climate of Pakistan.
05:17 So, there are more production chances in this, which last time if we see, the production was 60,000, 70,000, 80,000 metric tons, which has increased to 225,000 metric tons.
05:35 In 2020, the country's sesame production increased rapidly from $ 89.320 million to $ 407 million in 2023.
05:47 This unprecedented development has put Pakistan in the fifth largest oil producing country, with more than 80% of the production being achieved by China.
05:57 Previously, we used to see in China that it came from countries like Tanzania, Niger, Sudan, Ethiopia, and there is a big benefit of transit time between Pakistan and China.
06:09 The shipments from Africa used to take a transit of 40-45 days, and due to logistics issues, the shipments were always delayed.
06:19 Pakistan's shipments are quicker, your cargo reaches in 15-20 days, your shipments are on time, logistical support is available, and there is a win-win situation between the two countries.
06:37 In August 2023, I visited two of Pakistan's two major oil producing regions, Punjab and Sindh. I visited the complete production of GM from farms to factories.
06:48 Personally, I think that Pakistan and China can further strengthen cooperation in the world economy and finance, along with quality control, transportation, and sesame seed processing.
