Balochistan’s Agricultural Potential Gains Global Recognition

Balochistan’s immense agricultural potential has brought international acclaim to Pakistan, particularly through the success of olives from the Loralai district.

These olives are now globally recognized for their exceptional quality, making a significant impact at the New York International Olive Oil Competition (NYIOOC).

Loralai Olive Oil recently secured a Silver Award in this prestigious international competition, further enhancing Pakistan’s standing in the global market. The region’s Pure Extra Virgin Olive Oil is now regarded as one of the finest in the world, distinguished by its superior quality, distinct taste, and health benefits.

The international success of Loralai’s olive oil has not only brought pride to Balochistan but has also broadened the horizons for Pakistan’s agricultural exports. Furthermore, the expansion of olive cultivation and processing has created new pathways for prosperity and self-sufficiency for local farmers.

According to Senior Scientific Officer Dr. Abdullah Baloch, the successful cultivation of olives in Upper Balochistan is clear evidence that the region possesses the potential to produce world-class agricultural goods. This achievement stands as a significant source of pride for both Balochistan and the entirety of Pakistan.
