HYDERABAD, March 30: A member of the Bio-Sciences and Administration, Pakistan Atomic Energy Commission, Dr Kausar Abdullah Malik, has said development of the country depends on improvement in the agriculture sector.

Speaking at the Farmers' Day held at the Nuclear Institute of Agriculture, Tando Jam, on Friday, he called upon growers, especially their organizations, to inform the government about problems of the farming community.

He said growers' organizations should assist the government in formulating agricultural policies. Mr Malik said crops in Sindh were harvested three months earlier than other provinces therefore they fetched a better price.

In his welcome speech, the institute director, Dr Mazhar Hussain Naqvi, said the institute had evolved new varieties of wheat, cotton, rice and sugarcane which had given better production.

Speaking on the occasion, progressive farmers Noor Ahmad Nizamani, Qadir Bux Mari and Dr Bashir Nizamani expressed satisfaction over the working of the institute.
