The Director called this a positive step and stated that the province is agricultural in nature and faces several challenges, such as the lack of a standard agricultural system, issues with water management, and the absence of professional experts to provide awareness to farmers regarding the standardization of agricultural products.
He also pointed out the lack of cold storage facilities for preserving the quality of agricultural products.

Next, Deputy Marghawal highlighted issues including lack of visas for traders, existence of non-standard agricultural systems, absence of loan facilities for supporting traders, and the need for public awareness programs to establish a standard agricultural framework.
