CIMMYT and PAKISTAN: 60 years of collaboration
CIMMYT has a long history of collaboration with Pakistan and has played a vital role in improving its food security. Through an effective partnership between CIMMYT and the Pakistan Agricultural Research Council (PARC), more than 70% of current wheat varieties grown in Pakistan come either directly from CIMMYT selections or Pakistani cross-breeding programs and at least 50% of improved maize varieties are derived from joint CIMMYT-Pakistani research. With the support of the Government of Pakistan, CIMMYT is committed to working with Pakistani national programs throughout the country to enable resource-poor farmers to improve their livelihoods.
