Five years ago, it was roughly the same, because per capita growth in consumption in Pakistan has been very small in the last five years. But from here on, it should at least grow 50 percent to about Rs1.

BRR: Looking at this figure of Rs1. KK: I think percent is poultry, 30 percent beef and 10 percent mutton. Seafood is insignificant since it is a cyclical business and consumed mostly only in winters. KK: The B2B market is definitely bigger than retail; you could say that percent of the meat market is B2B and percent being retail sales. However, that market is very price sensitive because at the end of the day they compete at prices, which means for most of them hygiene and other factors are secondary.

BRR: Pakistan does not have a proper livestock breed for meat purpose. Is that a major limitation to Pakistan's meat export potential? KK: Meat breed livestock has better yield in foreign countries. It puts on weight much quickly as compared to the Pakistani animal.

In Pakistan, beef animal has never really been developed. Both the meat Pakistan exports or consumes domestically is actually dairy animal. Developing a domestic beef breed may not be very critical at the moment, but at some point we will have to develop the genetics of animal for beef, if we wish to develop brand 'Pakistan', For example, everyone is aware about the quality of 'Australian lamb', even those who have not consumed it. BRR: Is any work being done on this, now that the law for breeding societies has also been passed in Punjab?

KK: Yes, the government has started working on farming sector. We hope that these things will be included in the next trade policy because the current government has, at various forums, asked us about what we want to include in the trade policy; what are the issues, possible solutions and so forth.

The secretary commerce alone has held several meetings with us. BRR: What recommendations were put forward, especially in terms of structural reforms for the meat sector? KK: It's a long list including the fact that the costs of doing business needs to be lowered; timely tax refunds; that the animal quarantine department should become more proactive; that work should be done to improve animal health and welfare.

It is also important to initiate disease prevention programs, and especially develop foot and mouth disease free areas, so we can certify abroad that we are a foot and mouth disease free country. Going forward, the name of the game in Pakistan is agri. Agri is our opportunity and our strength. BRR: High cost of doing business and tax refunds are no doubt problem areas but what is the biggest structural issue facing the industry in term of export growth?

KK: The fact that we don't have certified animals in this country is a major problem. The government should develop a programme whereby it can certify that a certain animal has come from a disease-free area and has been grown on this or that particular farm. Because in international market they clearly ask for farm-to-fork traceability. The market Pakistan is exporting to at the moment the Middle East does not require pedigree certifications.

The government is now taking the initiative to develop meat export segment. Pakistan has also signed an FTA with China which allows us to export meat to them. But in order to export meat to China, which is a big market, we will need this traceability. Basically, if we want to export meat anywhere outside of the Middle East, we will need to show traceability. BRR: How long will it take to develop a chain of traceability?

KK: A villager cannot supply meat breed. But if corporate farms start developing meat breeds in Pakistan, we can have this ready in years but at a small scale. For large country-wide changes, big players and the government will have to join hands to develop the meat breed. All you need is to import proven bulls from Australia which can be used to breed Pakistani cows and you will start getting results in 4 to 5 years.
