Major Industries of Pakistan

9. Cotton-textile Industry
• The Textile industry in Pakistan is the largest manufacturing industry in Pakistan.
• Pakistan is the 8th largest exporter of textile products in Asia.
• This sector contributes 8.5% to the GDP.
• In addition, the sector employs about 45% of the total labor force in the country
(and 38% of the manufacturing workers).
• At present, there are 1,221 ginning units, 442 spinning units, 124 large spinning
units and 425 small units which produce textile.
• The Textile industry in Pakistan is the largest manufacturing industry in Pakistan.
• Pakistan is the 8th largest exporter of textile products in Asia. This sector
contributes 8.5% to the GDP.

11. Agriculture
• Agriculture constitutes the largest sector of our economy.
• Majority of the population, directly or indirectly, dependent on this sector.
• It contributes about 24 percent of Gross Domestic Product (GDP) and accounts for half of
employed labor force and is the largest source of foreign exchange earnings.
• It feeds our whole rural and urban population. Realizing its importance, planners and
policy makers are always keen to have reliable area and production statistics of
agricultural crops well in time.
• Policy makers primarily need accurate and timely statistics for the important crops such
as wheat, cotton, rice, sugarcane, maize etc.
• In 2005, Pakistan produced 21,591,400 metric tons of wheat, more than all of Africa
(20,304,585 metric tons) and nearly as much as all of South America (24,557,784 metric
tons), according to the FAO.
• The country was expected to harvest 47 to 64 million tons of wheat in 2015.
• Pakistan has also cut the use of dangerous pesticides dramatically

13. Mining
• Mining is an important industry in Pakistan.
• Pakistan has deposits of several minerals including coal, copper, gold, chromite, mineral
salt, bauxite and several other minerals.
• There are also a variety of precious and semi-precious minerals that are also mined.
• These include period, aquamarine, topaz, ruby, emerald, rare-earth minerals tourmaline,
and many varieties and types of quartz.
• The Pakistan Mineral Development Corporation is the responsible authority for the
support and development of the mining industry.
• Gemstones Corporation of Pakistan looks after the interests of stake holders in gemstone
mining and polishing as an official entity.
• Baluchistan province is the richest in mineral resources available in Pakistan.
• While recently Sindh discovered coal deposits in Thar.
• Khyber Pakhtoonkhwa is rich in gems.
• Most of the mineral gems found in Pakistan exist here.
• Apart from oil, gas and some mineral used in nuclear energy purposes which comes
directly under federal control mining of other minerals is provincial issue.
• Currently around 52 minerals, are mined and processed in Pakistan.
• Khewra salt mines are second largest salt mines in the world

15. Sugar Industry
• Sugar Industry is an agro-based industry, which provides employment to the
landless rural population and has a great impact on the economy of the country.
it has become the second largest industry after the Textiles sector.
• The sugar industry is totally dependent on this raw material although sugar in the
northern areas is also made from sugar beet. Sugarcane is a labor-intensive crop.
• It requires about 134 man-days/hectare. Sugarcane cultivation provides partial
and seasonal employment to 3.9983m people approximately, which is about
12.14% of the total agricultural labor force.
• The general perception of the sugar industry as minting money is not a correct
perspective in the prevailing situation. First of all, it has a seasonal production
spell for a period of five months from November to March. Keeping production
flow smoothly coordinated with storing and maintaining orderly schedules of
supplies throughout the year are really complex issues to tackle.

17. Minor industries
• In Pakistan, cottage or household industries hold an important
position in rural set-up and are usually know as minor industries .
• Most villages are self-sufficient in the basic necessities of life. They
have their own carpenters, blacksmiths, potters, craftsmen and
cotton weavers. Many families depend on minor cottage industries
for income.
• Minor industries have also gained immense importance in cities and
towns. There is great demand for hand-woven carpets, embroidered
work, brassware, rugs and traditional bangles. These are also
considered important export items and are in good demand in
international markets

18. Sports Industry
• There is an industry to manufacture everything so is for sport’s goods and this is
one of those industries that earn great revenue each year because of the
popularity of every sport.
• In Pakistan almost all sports related items are produced but the famous products
are soccer ball, cricket bat, cricket ball, tennis ball and some other items too.
• Sports industry of Pakistan has even manufactured the soccer ball for the FIFA
World cup of the year 1994; this shows that how demanding the sports industry
of Pakistan is in the world market of sports goods.
• The sports industry of Pakistan lies in the city of Sialkot which is a part of the
province of Punjab.
• All the items of sports of the best quality are manufactured in the city of Sialkot
and sports industry in Sialkot is the main factor of Sialkot’s economy as it earns
great profit from it due to the high demand of sports good in international
market.

20. Surgical Equipment industry
• The surgical instruments industry is mainly clustered in and around
the skirts of Sialkot.
• Over 99% of the countries production is centered at Sialkot.
• The sector comprises over 2300 companies, of which around 30 can
be considered large and the remainder can be split as 150 units of
medium sized and remaining as small.
• The industry produces on average over 150 million pieces a year with
an estimated value of around Rs 22 billion.

22. Environmental concerns- pictures

23. Negative Impacts of
Industries On Environment
• Cutting of forests – A lot number of forest trees are being cut in northern
areas for timber as well as fuel wood. People must not cut trees and use
wood as fuel. There are various bio diversities, climate change and other
environmental issues which are linked with forestry.
• The pollution from the factories- The environment of Pakistan is badly
affected by the smoke produced from the factories. This pollutes the air
and the environment of Pakistan.
• The industrial waste from the factories is not well treated and is dumped in
the nearby rivers which pollutes the water in the rivers increasing the social
cost and due to this water pollution the production of fish decreases
impacting the fishing industry negatively.

25. Negative impact of industries On people
1. The working conditions in many small and cottage industry are poor
and the impact health of workers negatively and many catch many
diseases due to substandard working condition
2. Working hours in many industries are very long and people have to
work for very long time to earn their living
3. In many industries, children are also working because wages in many
industries are very low and industrial work for their life and do not earn
enough to fulfill their needs.

26. Comparison with Uk
• In Uk most of the labour is employed in tertiary or service sector while in
Pakistan it is employed in primary sector (uk:79.7%in tertiary and
pakistan:43%in primary)
• Child labour in Uk is very low compared to pakistan
• Uk’s export are higher than of Pakistan and the main exports are
manufactured items food beverages while Pakistan's main exports is textile
and cotton.
• The per capita income in Uk is higher therefore industrial workers earn
more in Uk.
• The industries in Uk are mostly capital intensive and in Pakistan are usually
labour intensive

29. Solutions to the negative impacts of Industries and
to improve them in Pakistan
• The government of Pakistan should pass laws limiting the working hours and to improve
the working conditions and wages of industrial workers.
• More trees should be planted to reduce pollution and afforestation campaigns should be
launched.
• Improved machinery should be imported or should be locally produced to increase the
rate of production as the new and advanced machinery produces less pollutants in the
environment.
• Taxes should be imposed on those industries who are polluting the environment and
dumping the waste of industries in rivers.
• the labour in Pakistan is unskilled the government should work on educational sector so
skilled and educated labour is available for industries.
• Child labour should be banned and sending children to schools should be made
compulsory.
• Institutions to train employees should be introduced.
