Pakistan has received the Geographical Indicator (GI) tag for its Basmati, paving the way for creating a local registry for this particular strain of rice and making a case in the world markets for its protection as a Pakistani product.
A GI Tag is a sign used on products that has a specific geographical origin and possess origin based qualities and reputation in the region.
Pakistan exported 500,000-700,000 tonnes of Basmati Rice annually to different parts of the world.
