Question

Why Pakistan became a large importer of food stuffs when it is self sufficient in agriculture?​

Answer 1

Pakistan is presently self-sufficient in major staples – ranked at 8th in producing wheat, 10th in rice, 5th in sugarcane, and 4th in milk production. Despite that, only 63.1 percent of the country's households are “food secure”, according to the Ministry of Health and Unicef's National Nutritional Survey 2018.
