    Pakistan used to be the world's #7 in rice export.
    But then it used rice seed developed in China which increases domestic yield by 50 to 80%. Pakistan is now the world #4 rice exporter.

    This is one excellent piece of reality news than those abstract ones. Wow, moving up from number 7 to 4 ranking in the world is fantastic jump especially for Pakistan developments. All thanks to China's help in providing rice researchers and field
    teaching them how to plant and grow rice seeds researched and developed in China.

    For the first time, the Pakistan is able to feed its population and now able to export to other countries, such as Philippines, to earn foreign revenues for them. China's high yield rice seeds can produce 3 to 5 times rice harvests than Pakistan's rice
    seed that used by Pakistani rice farmers.
