Federal Industries and Production Minister directed that regional offices of the NFC should be established in Peshawar and Quetta and new Fertilizer Policy should be formulated.

Appreciating the performance of the NFC and its subsidiaries, he said that in view of increasing requirements of fertilizers in the country and shortage of natural gas, the national organizations like NFC should formulate far reaching policy on priority basis. He said that in these circumstances, there is also dire need for working on alternate methods for production of fertilizers through gas. He said that through installation of biogas plants in an integrated manner not only country can become self-sufficient in fertilizers but also can meet growing energy needs. He said that not only organic fertilizer produced by biogas plants can meet local needs of fertilizers but also can be exported in view of growing demand throughout the world for crops produced by organic fertilizer.
