3. Combine Harvester

○ As agro based economy Pakistan is importing combine harvesters from different parts of the world. But the market is segmented in two parts. New combine harvesters and used combine harvesters.

4. Rice Transplanters in Pakistan

○ Pakistan is one of the major rice export country in the world but still we are following traditional rice planting systems because of lack of awareness and education in farmers.

○ The traditional rice planting system comprises puddling method that requires 10 to 20㎝ of standing water throughout its growing season resulting in higher water use than actually required. The problem of labor and expenditure has been aggravated due to the industrialization and urbanization. Lower plant population is also one of the main constraints in obtaining high yield under conventional planting.

○ However, a number of planting systems such as parachute rice transplanting technique, the SRI-method, the Chinese technologies, planting rice under plastic film cover, double cropping, hybrid planting, the Chinese rice transplanter, and directing seeding are other alternate systems which reduce cultivation cost, labor and water needs of the crop but mostly farmers are unaware with these techniques and technologies.

○ In 2013 year total 8 rice transplanters are imported and in 2012 only 7 transplanters was imported as per Pakistan bureau of Statistics. This shows that awareness regarding rice transplanters in Pakistan is nearly at 0%.
