Adopted in 1954, the national emblem depicts a crescent and star crest above a shield, which is surrounded by a wreath, below which is a scroll.
The quartered shield in the centre shows cotton, wheat, tea and jute, which were the major crops of Pakistan at independence and are shown in a form of shield and signify as the main agricultural base for the importance of Pakistan’s economy.
