South Korea and Pakistan have announced their intention to work together on technology transfer in the field of agriculture. This collaboration will be facilitated by the Korea Programme on International Agriculture (KOPIA) and Pakistan Agricultural Research Council (PARC) and will cover a range of aspects including certified seed potato production and aeroponic greenhouses.
The development of certified seed potato production, with the help of aeroponic greenhouses, is an important move towards improving agricultural productivity in Pakistan. Aeroponic greenhouses are designed to provide a controlled environment for plant growth, which helps to optimise the conditions for the production of high-quality seeds.
According to PARC, the Pakistan-Korea Joint Programme on Certified Potato Seed Production System has committed to constructing more greenhouses. This is a continuous effort to expand production and fulfil the demand for certified seed potatoes in Pakistan. This initiative not only addresses the needs of local agriculture but also promotes food security and economic development.
