In addition, an awareness exhibition was also organized for farmers and agricultural experts in Faisalabad.

According to Dr. Niaz Khoro, the new seed will provide the highest yield from barren terrain and will produce more than prior seeds.

It will yield 30 times as much as wheat. If this seed is given to the general public, millions of hectares of barren land will become productive. Non-toxic agrochemicals and low-cost alternatives to urea fertilizers were also showcased during the exhibition.
