Q1. Which crop is commonly called the "white gold" of Pakistan due to its economic importance?
Answer: Cotton
Explanation: Cotton is called "white gold" in Pakistan because of its critical economic importance as the primary raw material for the textile sector, which accounts for the majority of Pakistan's export earnings. The white colour of the raw cotton bolls and its historically high value per kilogram relative to food crops gave rise to this nickname.
