Chinese ‘King Grass’ Boosts Livestock and Poverty Eradication Efforts in Pakistan
Chinese technology has introduced “King Grass” to Pakistan, which is emerging as a superfood for livestock with significant features for cash crop and land fertility. According to Gwadar Pro, this grass is one of the 10-year success stories of BRI that relates to poverty alleviation, de-desertification, and livestock economy.
King Grass, also known as magic grass, was grown successfully in a pilot project in Gwadar Port’s Free Zone area to raise livestock. Throughout the project, 80 percent of the proceeds were utilized as food for all breeds of goats, resulting in them becoming fattened and fit without suffering from any lethal diseases.
The grass provides many of the nutrition requirements for cattle, and goats love to eat it due to its lush green color, palatability, fragrance, and quality. Giant King Grass can replace expensive feeds in the ration and therefore reduce feeding costs while maintaining good nutrition.
Chinese President Xi’s vision of “magic grass” has been inspiring global poverty relief, according to the Pakistan Farmer Association President Mian Mansha Syed. The grass significantly lowers farming costs, and reduces annual tree clearing by 20 million cubic meters in the country.
Gwadar Port Operator “COPHC” initiated a King Grass project with the assistance of Chinese Embassy and experts from Chinese Universities in the Gwadar area, which was a litmus test for King grass due to its arid climate, land degradation, saline or alkali soil, and various other ecological challenges. The results proved that it is survivable and commercially feasible, with a yield of 120,000 per acre.
After the successful growth of King Grass in the length and breadth of Free Zone area of Gwadar Port, local enterprises are motivated to seek assistance of Chinese JUNCAO technology to grow King Grass to boost their business profitability. In order to let King Grass proliferate in other parts of Balochistan and Sindh, COPHC officials donated seeds to farmers and companies in Dasht area near Milini dam as well as Karachi.
King Grass works as a booster for livestock and poverty eradication efforts in Pakistan, pioneering Chinese technology in the country. Its impact on cash crop and land fertility in Gwadar, as well as Pakistan, is significant, with the potential to revolutionize the livestock economy in the country.
King Grass from Gwadar Port: A Symbol of Chinese Public Good Initiatives to Alleviate Poverty
King Grass, the innovative animal food pioneered by Chinese technology, has made remarkable achievements in poverty alleviation and afforestation in various countries, including China, where it has multiplied farmers’ income with minimum hassles. In Gwadar Port, King Grass has emerged as a strong footprint of Chinese public good initiatives that aim to empower people to stamp out poverty, earn better, and boost afforestation, according to Muhammad Fakhar, the director of Pak-Green NGO.
King Grass Technology has been expanded in 106 countries, and it was listed as a priority cooperation project between China and developing countries by UNDP. In a meeting on Juncao technology held at the UN headquarters in 2019, then UN General Assembly President Maria Fernanda Espinosa Garces said that the herbaceous plant contributes to poverty eradication, clean energy, gender equality, and biodiversity preservation.
Juncao technology, which King Grass is emblematic of, is also part of China’s Belt and Road Initiative and supports the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development. In the mid-1980s, when Xi Jinping worked as a local government official in Fujian, he supported the King Grass invention, which is now making waves globally.
Today, King Grass is making a significant impact in Gwadar Port, where local enterprises are motivated to seek the assistance of Chinese JUNCAO technology to grow King Grass and benefit from its advantages. The activity has generated a tremendous outcome, and farmer companies are in the mood to grow it further. King Grass has the potential to revolutionize the livestock economy in Pakistan and become a vital tool in poverty eradication, de-desertification, and land fertility in the country.
