Improvement in agri technology realized
Sialkot-Pakistan is basically an agricultural economy but
different governments have always neglected this sector.It
needs to make use of advancement of knowledge and spectacular
improvement in technology to gain maximum benefits from the
agriculture sector.
This was stated by district Nazim Mian Naeem Javed, on Jan 25,
here. He said rice and cotton were our principal crops and
especially when there was bumper crop of cotton, but we had
never utilized available resources to boost the agriculture
sector to the highest degree.
The farming sector provides much of the raw material for
exprots. The textile sector can easliy convert the silver of
the cotton into gold and when cotton is in abundance, the
textile industries would flourish. However, to achieve good
results in the faming sector, the government needs to announce
long term policies and avoid short term
policies, he added.
His suggest that the government lands should be leased out to
educate people living in the rural areas and have practical
experience in agricultural. If such lands are properly
utilized, the billions of rupees could be generated on regular
basis and it would
provide a substantial support in eradicating unemployment as
well, he concluded.
