Farmers in Pakistan are expecting improved crop yields as field trials conducted by a Chinese State-owned enterprise involving hybrid wheat has yielded impressive results.
Chinas' Sinochem Group Co, which has interests in chemicals and other agriculture-related services, has conducted field trials of hybrid wheat varieties and realized on average 24.4 percent increase in crop yields, according to company officials.
"The tests on the hybrid varieties were implemented in 230 sites, spread over 2,000 hectares of land, mostly in experimental bases or local farms," said Chen Zhaobo, general manager of CNSGC Hybrid Wheat Seed (Beijing) Co, a subsidiary of China National Seed Group Co under Sinochem Group Co, that is responsible for the hybrid wheat promotion project in Pakistan.
"The project's local business and science partners said that yields from hybrid wheat varieties rose as much as 50.1 percent from 2017 to 2018 in the northern wheat growing areas and by 45 percent in the central areas.
Wide cultivation of such high-yielding hybrid wheat varieties will provide more options for Pakistan to secure food supply, as wheat is one of the main staples for 80 to 90 percent of the population.
In addition, nearly 50 percent of the available farmland in Pakistan is used for wheat crops, said Zhang Shengquan, manager of the scientific research department with CNSGC Hybrid Wheat Seed (Beijing) Co. Muhammad Arif, a professor at the University of Agriculture, Peshawar, said in a recent interview that hybrid wheat cultivation will help Pakistan to conserve a lot of land for growing other important agricultural products.
The hybrid technologies used in developing such varieties are the two-line hybrid wheat technology system, a world-leading innovation developed by Chinese scientists in the 1990s.
Compared with China, wheat cultivating areas in Pakistan often suffer from drought and high temperatures.
Besides, wheat growth period in a year in Pakistan spans only 120 to 150 days, while in China, the time span is about 200 days, according to Chen, the general manager.
Song Weibo, vice-president of the agriculture business unit at Sinochem and general manager of China National Seed Group Co, said the former will continue its efforts to promote hybrid wheat in Belt and Road-related countries and regions.

Transport option offers lower costs, more convenience to landlocked areasNANJING — Fully loaded with containers of wheat from Kazakhstan, a roaring China-Europe freight train enters an international logistics base in Lianyungang, a coastal city in East China's Jiangsu province.
Kazakhstan is one of the world's top wheat producers and has traditionally exported some of its wheat via sea routes.
In February 2017, the first batch of wheat produced in Kazakhstan stopped over in Lianyungang and was then sent to Southeast Asia, marking the official implementation of Lianyungang as the only departure port for Kazakhstan's grain transit in China, said Zuo Xuemei, general manager of the Lianyungang China-Kazakhstan International Logistics Co Ltd, in an interview.
China-Europe freight trains slash transit times of Kazakh wheat and are also cost-effective, said Zuo, adding that over 50,000 metric tons of wheat from Kazakhstan have been transported from the base so far.

It was predicted that the nation would embrace a summer harvest before the continuous overcast and rainy weather hit provinces such as Henan and Shaanxi in central and northwest China, allowing for an increased planting area of wheat, good wheat growth and well-controlled pests and plant diseases, said Pan Wenbo, director of the ministry's planting management department, at a news conference in Beijing on Friday.
"In fact, experiencing overcast and rainy weather over wheat season is a global problem, during which time period the reaping machine can't work on a muddy ground, but ripe wheat still begins to sprout.
It's calculated that the continuous overcast and rainy whether (from May 25) has affected wheat planting areas of 1.86 million hectares, roughly eight percent of nation's total planting areas of wheat, and 95 percent of the affecting areas were in Henan province.
"The central government granted 546 million yuan ($76 million) to heavily-stricken areas such as Henan and Shaanxi and coordinated to set up over 6,000 emergency teams of 600,000 combine harvesters to rush harvesting and drying wheat around the clock.
"The National Bureau of Statistics said that Henan saw a wheat production cut of 2,630 million kg and Shaanxi 120 million kg.
Other wheat production provinces such as Shandong and Anhui were not severely affected by the continuous rainy weather and saw an increase of summer grain crops," he added.
"The wheat is, so far, in ample stock and the slight production cut won't hit the grain market.
The price of wheat will remain stable," he added.

Global supplies of wheat, sunflower oil and other agricultural products have been seriously disrupted.
World Bank Group President David Malpass said the conflict in Ukraine has caused a near-term spike in prices of key food staples, including wheat and wheat substitutes, meanwhile future harvests and crop yields face reductions due to higher energy and fertilizer prices.
Fu Linghui, the spokesperson of the NBS, told media that Russia is a major exporter of energy, food and fertilizers while Ukraine accounts for a considerable portion of the world's corn and wheat exports.
The impacts of tighter external supplies of wheat and corn to China are likely to be limited given the country's relatively low grain import reliance, grains' small weight in the CPI and the ability to substitute across different types of grains, a Goldman Sachs report said, adding only 4 percent of wheat consumed in China is imported.
Russia and Ukraine jointly account for around 29 percent of global wheat exports, 19 percent of world corn supplies and 80 percent of global sunflower oil exports, industry estimates showed.
The country has recently approved wheat imports from all regions of Russia.
"Russia's wheat exports account for 16.9 percent of global output, followed by barley at 13.2 percent, gas at 5.3 percent, aluminum at 5.1 percent and oil at 4.7 percent.
The minimum price the government pays to purchase rice and wheat will be increased, and subsidies for corn and soybean producers will be made more stable, it added.

In terms of wheat, the conflict has affected spring planting in Ukraine.
The country's 2022-23 wheat output is expected to fall to 21.5 million metric tons, down 11.5 million tons from 2021-22.
By the end of 2022-23, there will be a 5 percent loss in global wheat stocks, which will then fall to 267 million tons, the lowest level in six years.
Worsened forecasts for wheat and corn have been well reflected by the market.
Based on this, we can divide the main food crops－rice, wheat, corn and soybeans－into three categories based on China's dependence and price transmission from global to domestic markets.
In 2020-21, imports of corn and wheat took up 10 percent and 7 percent, respectively, in terms of domestic consumption, while in 2019 the figures were just 3 percent and 4 percent.
Since 2021, price transmission from the global corn and wheat markets to the domestic market has been between 10 percent and 30 percent.
In China, consumption of wheat and rice makes up the bulk of total edible grain consumption.
Looking at China's grain consumption structure in 2021, the consumption ratio of edible wheat and rice is about 80 percent, which is significantly higher than that of corn and soybeans, which are 3 percent and 28 percent, respectively, over the same period.
