Pakistan also produces its own oil, though it is not much enough to meet the needs, it has great capability to save considerable outflow of currency. Baluchistan having contiguous border with Iran, has ability to produce one trillion barrels of oil to contribute much to the economy of Pakistan. The worsened law and order situation in Baluchistan has put, not only this region at stake, but it has also made the future of Pakistan eclipsed.
Similarly, Wind and solar energy are other unused lifelines of Pakistan. 1046 km long coastal line of Pakistan and vast area of Baluchistan can produce wind and solar energy respectively, far more than the demand of country. But unfortunately these resources have rarely been used. Hardly have been any plan made to exploit these natural resources. .
Furthermore, Pakistan is the 28th largest agricultural country in the way world with agrarian output of 32 billion dollars annually. Pakistan is rich in fertile land yet land is being wasted in deferent ways. The major causes of damage to agricultural progress include, soil erosion, water logging and salinity, being aware of these facts no measures have been taken to agricultural fields. Not only are agricultural fields are ignored, but other components are also nonexempt.
One fishery, second forestry are the part of agriculture and they contribute 16.6 per cent and 8.8 per cent respectively. Forestry, though, limited to 4 per cent of total land of Pakistan, it is main source of food, timber, paper, medicine and wild life. On other hand, fishing industry has an important role to play in national economy of Pakistan. The coast line of 814 km provide ample opportunity to enhance this industry, but poor performance and poor presentation of our cause in WTO have put this industry at the verge of destruction.
In addition to that the mineral resources of Pakistan are also in pitiable condition because inadequate measures have been taken to unearth and exploit these priceless resources of Pakistan.
