National Agricultural Research Center Islamabad (NARC)
Dr. Humayun Akhtar & team has introduced a new variety of garlic which is the 1st Registered Garlic Variety of Pakistan, Named “NARC G1” or simply “G1”
NARC G1 is an unparalleled variety of garlic. Its production has been recorded up to 250 to 300 Munds per acre. Whereas the normal Garlic varieties yields 70 to 80 Munds/acre only.
One of the most important advantages of this variety is its long shelf life & almost doubles nutritive value (as compared to already available garlic varieties). In a nut shell it gives approximately 7 to 9 times the production (means if you sow one acre it gona give you the seed for 7 to 9 Acers next year.
For Advance bookings of Original NARC G1 seed feel free to contact us any time.

2. History of Garlic
Garlic is among the oldest
known horticultural crops. In
the Old World, Egyptian and
Indian cultures referred to
garlic 5,000 years ago and
there is clear historical
evidence for its use by.
the Babylonians 4,500
years ago and by the
Chinese 2000 years ago.
Some writings suggest that
garlic was grown in China
as far back as 4,000 years
ago

4. Introduction to G1 Garlic
– The G1 Garlic was introduced by NARC
(National Agricultural Research Council) in
2018 by agriculture scientist Dr.
HUMAYUN KHAN.
– Its registered Garlic variety in Pakistan
– Very big Size in comparison to available
varieties. The per acre yield of locally
produced garlic was around 70 to 80
maunds per acre while the G1 garlic
produces around 200 to 250 maunds per
acre
– The average weight of locally produced
garlic plant is 30-50 grams while the
weight of G1 garlic is 250-520+ grams
fresh plant
Yield % almost 3+ times

11. 1 Year Feasibility Study of Garlic (G1) crop
Suppose we are cultivating 8 canals/1Acr field
• We need Dry seed around average 400kg to 800kg ( depending upon the sowing style)
• Purchase price of Dry seed after month of May varies, runs from Rs5,000/kg to Rs.16,000/kg
(approximately. 2023.)
• In order to save money buy seed in advance, advance booking price is around Rs.2,500 ++ during
the month of March 2023 on wards.
• Suppose the drying is up to maximum 65% then 1,500kg
seed will dry to 525kg +- which will be sufficient for 1 acre on
Drip irrigation
• Lets suppose we purchase dry seed @ Rs.10,000/kg
• Total amount used to purchase 525kg seed = 525kg x Rs.10,000 = Rs.5,250,000
• Expenses for 7months NOTE: the crop is 7 months ( 210 Days)
• Land Rent , Land preparation ( leveling +ploughing)
Rs.100k +Rs.50k
• Labor + Transportation + animal manure + Green manure + store + Watchman
3k + 20k + 80K + 10K + 50k + 270k
Advance booking :1,500kg x
Rs.2,500 = Rs.3,750,000
Approximately Rs.583,000
12. Feasibility Study of Garlic (G1) crop
Total investment + expenses
Rs.3,750,000+ 583,000 = Rs.4,333,000
- Yield (1:20 to 1:30) approximately
525kg x 20 = 10,500kg
Suppose 10% is wastage: 1,050 = 9,450kg
- Fresh Green crop = 9,000kg
After 8 months
we got 525kg dry
seed converted
to 9,000kg
(approx.)Fresh
crop.
We got options
to sell,
Lets talk about
the OPTIONS
13. • Approximate rate of advance
booking Rs.2,000/kg
• 9,000kg x Rs.2,000 = Rs.18,000,000
• 9,000kg x Rs.1,000 = Rs.9,000,000
• 9,000kg x Rs.500 = Rs.4,500,000
• 2nd year break even point :
56,000*Rs100= Rs.5,600,000
Total investment on the project : Rs.4,333,000
14. • 9,000kg-2,250kg= 6,750kg
• 2,250kg x Rs.2,000
• =
Means if you sell just 25% of your Fresh crop @
minimum rate Rs.2,000/kg you will recover your
cost.
• Dry remaining 75% till the time of next
sowing (4months) 65% maximum drying will
give us 6,750x0.35%=2,362kg Dry seed
• Keep 500kg/600kg for the sowing & rest
1,762kg you may sell at maximum profit
• 1,762kg x Rs.10,000( approximate )
= Rs.17,620,000
Total investment on the project : Rs.4,333,000
15. • 9,000kg -65% ( dry )
= 9,000kg X 35% = 3,150kg
3,150/500 = 6 Acers seed
available for the next run
Suppose you cure seed properly &
drying is not more than 60% then
9,000x.4 = 3600kg
3600/500 = 7 Acers for next turn
