Fauji Fertilizer Bin Qasim Limited (FFBL) ne last year gas ki kami aur Government allocation ki kammi ka samna kia. Iske impact se company ki production mein kami hui aur farming community ko bhi product ki kami aur middlemen ki qeemat manipulation ka samna karna para. Is par Government ko majbooran 220 KT Urea international market se import kare.
Company ki Urea plant ne saal bhar sirf 52% capacity par chalai, jiski wajah gas ki kami thi. Company ko saal bhar mein 13,714 MMSCF gas supply mili, jo ke Government allocation ki gayi 23,800 MMSCF ke muqablay 42% kam thi, aur pichle saal ke 19,119 MMSCF ke muqablay 28% kam thi. Is ke natije mein, Urea production 36% kam ho gayi, jo ke 336 KT (2022: 524 KT) thi.
Agay dekhte hue, gas supply ko strong banaye rakhna fertilizer production ke liye aik mushkil bana rahe ga. Company Government se darkhwast karti hai ke woh fertilizer sector ko mustaqil gas suplaien dene mein madad kare, jo ke farming community ko fertilizer mojoodgi aur munasib qeemat mein dene mein madad kare, aur fertilizer import ki zarurat ko khatam kare, jis se mulk ke kheti bari mein izafah hoga aur mulk ki maeeshat mein hissa lega.
