Why bring the modernized approach when this has been working forever? If the predictive statistics of climate change and its impact on agriculture are not persuasive enough, a simple breakdown of facts can be looked at. The agriculture sector of Pakistan has always been defined as the backbone of its economy, contributing approximately 24 percent to the GDP and employing nearly 48 percent of the labor force. In the age of digitalization, connectivity, sustainability, and food security, Pakistan is blessed to have large plains and mountainous regions as arable cultivable land. Yet, the concerns in the geography books have remained consistent over the years. Whether it is the unsupported, unlearned farmer, lack of water, saline or waterlogged soil, or lack of mechanization, all have led to the continuity of obsolete practices of tilling and sowing, middleman politics, and no innovation in the sector.
