Revealed export performance have been analyzed which indicated that over time Pakistan is losing its share and market participation of traditional export commodity in traditional import markets of basmati. Despite the steady increase in the value of basmati exports over time and obvious high RCA index value its share in global export of basmati rice is declining. The results suggest that the competitiveness of Pakistan has de-creased significantly over the period under analysis at global level. However the structure of basmati export by geographical destination has not much changed considerably. Based on the present analysis, several conclusions can be drawn with respect to the export competitiveness of Pakistan’s basmati rice. Declining competitiveness is the real issue. The analysis of RCA revealed that the Pakistan has revealed comparative advantage in basmati rice export, implying revealed competitiveness of very high degree as basmati remained a dominant commodity of Pakistan’s export earnings. It identified the export concentration and major international markets for Pakistan basmati exports. As Pakistan’s basmati export is highly concentrated to few countries /markets which makes the economy more vulnerable to negative developments namely on those markets in term of export incentives. There is need to diversify basmati exports across more regions beside Middle East. There is need to increasing production capacity, infrastructure development for improved export chain to exploit potentials for export growth in high-end markets. Measures are necessary for standardized, normalized and scientific administration track in production and marketing of basmati rice of Pakistan. Opportunities provided by the global demand patterns and inherent competitive edge in basmati rice can be exploit with effective trade policy
