The Higher Education Commission (HEC) of Pakistan announced that 885 Pakistani agricultural professionals have completed advanced training at top Chinese universities and returned as master trainers to modernize the country’s farming sector.
The selected cohort underwent rigorous training in areas including AI-driven agriculture, drone technology, advanced seed production, and water management systems. HEC emphasized that these professionals are now equipped to boost productivity and food security nationwide.
The initiative is part of the Prime Minister’s capacity-building program, aiming to strengthen human resource development in critical economic sectors. It also establishes long-term academic and research linkages between Pakistani and Chinese institutions.
Agriculture is a key focus of the 2025-2029 China-Pakistan Action Plan, prioritizing cooperation in crop cultivation, animal husbandry, disease prevention, aquaculture, agro-processing, mechanization, seed technology, drip irrigation, and expert exchanges under the CPEC framework.
