I am Adnan Arshad, a 27 years old young Pakistani Agriculturist and Environmentalist, post-graduated from PMAS-Arid Agriculture University. I am young agripreneur and have start earning from agriculture farm when I was only 24 years old. Along with my graduation I did a lot of research work on climate adaptive food crops, forest plants species, seasonal and off seasonal vegetables farming and fruits plants. Got seeds and plants from different research stations and experimented it with different replications and sowing patterns to check their climatic adaptability. The region where we living and working is totally rain-fed and there rainwater is the only source of water for drinking, domestic purposes and agriculture.
Changing climate, nutrient scarce soils and uneven rainfall pattern makes this region more vulnerable to prolong droughts and food insecure for small farmers particularly for young growers. Keeping in mind these facts and on the basis of expertise’s I started climate smart diversified agriculture model farm with very low capita in March, 2011. I have started agripreneurship from 1-acre of cultivated land and divided it into four sub-plots; 1) Grapevine yard 2) Citrus orchard 3) Seasonal and off-seasonal vegetable 4) Poultry farm.
Grapevine yard have more than 160 plants of four climate adaptive varieties (cardnor, perlit, king roobi, black NARC) and started bearing fruits after two years of plantation. In citrus orchard we have 80 plants of different citrus varieties (seedless oranges, sweet lime, red blood, grape fruits) and it starts bearing fruits after three years. We have secure our continues earning source with seasonal and off-seasonal vegetable production at our farm, this plot also helped me a lot during very first years when grape yard and citrus orchard were not ready for fruiting.
Now, we are earning from grapevine yard and we are the only organic producer practicing environmental friendly farm operations. There is no compromise on farm produce and plants sustainability, seasonally during dormant period we practicing grape yard training/pruning and raise nursery of more than 1000 plants annually. Farm monitoring and replantation is going on throughout the years. In small portion of the farm we have poultry farm of traditional chickens which also support us to generate income to run other sustainable farm operations. We have Farmer Seed Bank with all required facilities and equipment to store quality seed for batter crop production. Every year our farm organizes different events for women and youth farmers about introduction of new varieties, celebrate world water day and awareness sessions.
Farm remain open all the time for local community visitors, we also organizing regular demonstration visits of locals farmers, students and youth groups to motivate them to start their own agriculture farm. All farm produce is 100% organic according to IFOAM standards and free from all type of chemicals and GMOs. More than 35% of farm produce is sale out in local community on very flat rates lower than the market rates and 60% of the produce yield is transported to the capital city to sale out at Go Organic Farmers Market where we get good price and customer response. This farm also providing new techniques, seeds and production methodologies’ to local community to replicate it along with a platform to share their issues.
I have six years of academic and agriculture research background which always push me to take initiatives to started my own project because I always takes interest in agriculture farming with conserved rainwater. I always believe on practical earning as compare to theoretical thinking. Initially, we have faced shortage of rainwater leads to prolong droughts due to extreme weather conditions but my motivations helped me to develop rooftop rainwater harvesting for our agriculture farm.
My aim is to start my own agriculture farm and develop it according to the climate smart adaptation practices. I also intend to develop farm as role model for other youth to replicate is as success case study for their batter livelihood. All technical work has been done by myself i.e. soil testing, preparation, annual work planning, rooftop rainwater harvesting source, composting, mulch, sowing to harvest and marketing along with varieties experimentation to the climate adaptation process.
Our agriculture farm is the role model for the all the community groups and they are trying to replicate it. I am also supporting them to start small vegetable and fruit farming farm with available income. During this project I learned and earned a lot and did my post-graduation study and successfully completed my degree. During the project I invented bio-sand filter for cleaning of water along with he introduced Moringa seeds for rainwater purification. I delivered more than 152 capacity building trainings to the farmer community especially women and youth. The measurable strength is to develop youth climate adaptive policy to engage youth to play their effective participation for sustainable agriculture development and acclimate agriculture as profession.
Currently, I am facing some energy and water loss issues at farm to irrigate it during higher temperature of summer with efficiently. Due to energy crises we have to face difficulty to run water pumping system to irrigate the whole farm, so with 55% of the budget will install green energy solar power system at farm which will be enough to run all the power operations of farm. High temperature causes big water loss from direct irrigation so 25% of the budget will be planned to install Zero Gravity Drip Irrigation system at farm to enhance the water holding capacity of the soil. Remaining budget will be utilized to get new rootstock and pruning tools for farm. The time frame of this proposed development will be one year with monthly updating reports and photos.

This is a wonderful work to cope climate change and it is the need based things which we urgently needed in Pakistan.so i have a question that, are you creating awareness among youngsters to adopt agriculture as their entrepreneurship?
thanks for your appreciations, yes I am doing awareness sessions for youth and women particularly jobless young people who have cultivated land but they not willing to do agriculture due to adverts climate change. So i am doing my level best.
very important work you are doing in the water less region of Pakistan along with earning source. This is a good role model for other young entrepreneur to adopt it as profession. Is there any crop modeling skill tool are you applying at farm to deal with extreme climatic events?
yes, I have developed some skill scores for crop modeling like early weather information system, irrigation scheduling according to the rainfall and little bit application of Crop-Wat model. To deal with extreme climatic event I we are applying climatic adaptive crop rotation with zero tillage practices. Safflower is the best climate adaptive crop for the rainfed regions of Pakistan and all over the world.
You have done a remarkable work in rainfed agriculture i found this project very useful and fruitfull for the furture development of Rainfed Agriculture.
I wish you a very good luck for your future 🙂
thanks Dear Mirza Ahmad, this project need more replication at multiple location all over the country.
Good thinking and initiative Adnan Mechanization can attract the youths who are in abroad and the best alternative to reduce human hunger. Simultaneous effort on machinery demonstration on field and awareness through mass media could assure the rapid mechanization in Pakistan.
Good Work adnan keep it up
Hey Adnan Here are some questions which raised in my mind after reading your artical i hope i can get Answers from you.
1: As you mentioned about four varities of orange in your artical Why these varities start fruit bearing after 3 years is there any Enviornmental barrier in this.?
2: What type of compost you use during your Research work.?
3:What is bio sand filter Did you Found it more Reliable than other comercial filters found in the Market..??
1.Dear Dr. Ahmad, Yes there are some biotic and abiotic barriers we have faced during early growth of these progressive citrus varieties like weeds, water shoots, nutrient deficiency and attack citrus mites but we deal all of these with biological agents.
2.natural compost prepared by leaves and farm straw, trash paper of office, wood chip, mixture of farm yard manure and poultry manure, I have applied it into the soil after the complete decomposition of two month period.
3. it is environmental friendly and have very economical price as compare to other commercial water filters, and you know well in the rain-fed ares most of the communities are small farmers so its very difficult for them to buy expensive filters, and most of the villages have not electricity.
Dear Adnan Arshad i am happy for you while you are a student and doing agriculture farming with your community. What type of water conservation techniques your are applying on farm?
A. Rain Water Harvesting
1) Roof rain water harvesting
2) Courtyard rain water harvesting
3) In situ rain water conservation/harvesting through catchment management
4) Pond development
B. Site specific Agricultural practices suitable for the area
C. Kitchen Gardening with mulching to conserve water
Pitcher planting (an earthen pot/pitcher is buried in the soil and filled with water. This pot releases water in the soil slowly. Some spreading plants are grown around it.
Well Done Arshad, I am proud of you being a Pakistani you are really struggling hard in that environmental conditions. Keep it Up. I would like to give more suggestion with respect to drought conditions of prolong dry season in the area during April to JUne each year.Try to apply bio char amendments in the soil. Make biochar from indigenous species of the area and try it . I am hopeful it will support growth as well as retain soil moisture. Moreover, Under climatic change scenario follow IPCC guidelines to sequester more carbon from the atmosphere under UN REDD program or CDM. For this you can consult Inspector General of Forest Ministry of Climate Change. Make assessment of Carbon stocks with third party and earn more money by selling carbon credits. I really appreciate your efforts.
Pakistan need Individual like you to come up to the expectations of the Nation…………….At least away from all politics, castism and other social issues……………..WELL DONE baby………..
Thanks Professore Nizami: for your suggestion and valuable comments. I will experiment biochar at farm. I am following little bit IPCC guidelines and reports about climate change and CDM programs. I will contact with Inspector General of Forest Ministry of Climate Change and will do detail assessment of Carbon stocks. Can you please recommend me some consultant as third party for this assignment? I will be very grateful to you sir.
Well done, Keep it up
Thanks Saira Khalid, this farm also providing new techniques, seeds and production methodologies’ to local community to replicate it along with a platform to share their issues.
well done my boy, Adnan Arshad. I have always admired your work. This is a great step at this level. I wish you all the success in your endeavors. It will not only sharp your skills but also improve the knowledge of the local community. keep it up
The measurable strength is to develop youth climate adaptive policy to engage youth to play their effective participation for sustainable agriculture development and acclimate agriculture as profession and i am promoting it among locals.
nice work for youth of Pakistan. Keep it up. Never loose hope.
Wow…What a great initiative. Yes it is very true implementing theory to practice not only gives much more satisfaction but also proves to be tremendously helpful for Society and Country. Having good Agriculture Academics background and at the same time pursuing farming is great combination.
Many congratulations for developing the climate smart model as it is the need of an hour for the well being of all .
My best wishes are always with you. Keep going ahead.
Nikki Pilania Chaudhary
Dairy Farmer
India
Thanks for your words as professional You know Nikki due to climate change the wet periods have shortened and the dry periods have stretched in the area, thus water is sometimes received in short torrents that causes erosion and run off, resulting in loss of soil erosion, soil nutrients and precious water.
The average annual rainfall in the area is about 450-550 mm. by using different rainwater harvesting techniques water resource development. Monsoon (from July to September) is the foremost source of rainwater which receives about 70% of the total rainfall and remaining 30% is received during winter months (from December to March).The rural community has small and scattered land holdings. The main stay of economy of these people is rain-fed agriculture and traditional livestock rearing. The overall per-capita income is less than$1,386 (Annual Report 12-2013).
Dear Adnan I am very glad to know about your recent research work in agriculture field. Keep it on and wishing very good luck for you.
Thanks for your comments and you are welcome with your class to visit our farm and show the students how they can earn money to meet their education expenses.
hi Adnan, you are very active environmentalist. I ma proud of you. you have much experience in agriculture and climate change and performed well in different applied projects. Now a days its a big problem for Pakistan that facing problem of water loss not only in agriculture but also in different domestic ways. I really appreciate your efforts.
Thanks Dr. Kamran: In Pakistan Monsoon (from July to September) is the foremost source of rainwater which receives about 70% of the total rainfall and remaining 30% is received during winter months (from December to March). Temperature is increasing beyond its normal limits due to global warming and also because of non-environment friendly human (anthropogenic) activities.The underground water is scarce, water table too deep, and brackish contains other pollutants due to nearby oil and gas exploration activities. Consequently by using the problematic water the people of the area, particularly women, children and old males are suffering from various diseases of digestive track, hepatitis, cancer, eyes and skin damage.
Well Done Arshad, You arr doing very good job . I am proud of you being a Pakistani you are really struggling hard in that environmental conditions. Keep it Up. I would like to give more suggestion with respect to drought conditions of prolong dry season in the area during April to JUne each year.Try to apply bio char amendments in the soil. Make biochar from indigenous species of the area and try it.
Dear Mubashir, thanks for your suggestion about application of bio-char. I will do more research work on it and experiment it at farm to cope prolong droughts of summer. Can you please help me in this regard? my email address is adnan.poda@gmail.com
Dear Adnan Arshad you are doing a remarkable work in rain-fed agriculture i found this project very useful and fruitful for the future development of Rain-fed Agriculture. i read your all project as you describe above i really appreciate your work good job.
Your words are the true appreciation for me and it will increase my passion to do more work for development of sustainable climate smart farm models.
Dear Adnan Arshad you are doing very good job.well done boy i am very glad to know about your research work.In rainfed area this work is very usefull.Recently Pakistan is facing water losses so i hope this project will be very helpfull for Rain-Fed Agriculture areas in Pakistan.Many Many best wishes
Dr. Fahad thanks, yes since 2010 Pakistan is facing extreme climatic events in term of drought, floods and heat waves which are not good indications about our rain-fed areas and agriculture professions. thats why farmers are not getting good price of their production.
wow Its Amazing Wish u best of Luck Adnan !! 🙂
Thank you Uzair,
Well done man and keep it up
Dear Sindheela, this model farm is the need of hour to improve lively hood of rural community through making clean water available and kitchen gardening
Well Done bro, you are a role model for youth. Keep up the good work in coming future. Thumbs up
this all about the quality food production for our-self and our communities free from all type of chemicals and GMOs. IT will help me, you and all to get protection from diseases….
are you applying GIS and remote sensing tools at your farm? what type of vegetable farming are you doing at farm? how much you are getting?
Very well Mr.adnan. your work is really splendid and it is a source if motivation for young agriculturists. Keep it up.whish u better luck for your developmental and upgradation plans.
this model needs more improvement and up-gradation with crop management models and skills.
Well done, I am proud of you. You are really v.hard struggling in that environmental conditions. how you are dealing with drought?
This is a great step (Adnan). I wish you , all the success in your endeavors. My best wishes are always with you.
Well done my dear!
We are dealing with drought with application of organic mulching, rooftop rainwater harvesting and micro-catchment development structures to conserve maximum rainwater in rainy season and I also improving soil organic matter and green manure cropping production. We are also growing drought tolerant crop and vegetable varieties which are performing well again drought. Thanks dr. Saleem.
Not at all right now, because GIS and Remote Sensing needs very special tools and soft wears. I am doing farming with no external funds, we have very limited funds but we are really looking for to apply those at rain-fed areas.
awsOm dear brother ..I wish u good luck fo ur future 🙂 keep it up 🙂 🙂
Its my pleasure to have you, Thanks for your comments.
Adnan you are doing a wonderful job. this kind of work is need of the hour…
Thanks I am inviting you and all of your research friends to visit my farm and give your valuable suggestions and ideas.
Good work Adnan Arshad keep it up…………..
but I have some suggestions and questions for you……….
Suggestions…….
i) you are running short of capital then you can take an interest-free loan from the bank or any other organizations as many banks introduce the interest-free loan scheme and many NGO’s offers financial support to the people.
ii) you also say that you face problem regarding the shortage of water in summer season then I suggest to use solar energy pump system, an only initial cost is required to develop the system and not a single rupee will invest in future for the irrigation……………I attended the 11th professional training workshop regarding this system and I have all the data which I can share with you if you want to develop that system I found it very useful and it is more efficient in summer season as you say you face shortage in summer season…………
Questions…….
i)I also want to develop a farm of off-season vegetable production but I have not any guidance and experience I want to ask about the cost and arrangements for establishing a farm…?????
ii) I belong from the area which is irrigated and there is not any shortage of water throughout the year kindly tell me what vegetables and fruits are suitable and economically benefit me……….and please note my area is a subtropical irrigated with sandy loam soils pH ranges from 6.5-8.5…………….i am waiting for your answer…………..
Thanks
Thanks for very detail suggestions about interest-free loan from the bank or any other organizations as many banks introduce the interest-free loan scheme and many NGO’s and I have planed to install in summer season solar energy pump system, May be from the selection of this project I will spend specific funds for the installation of solar energy pumping system.
Dear Sajjad Khan I will support you and your farm and give you all the field support to develop a climate smart farm, for one acre of land there will be around 2000 $ initially cost is required for the seasonal vegetable farming but for the off-seasonal vegetable farming it will be increased upto 5000-6000$.
thats great you have a water on field with good fertile soil and organic matter so you can grow all type of winter and summer vegetables at your farm for the summer you have to start it write now under the plastic tunnel I will email you all about the work plan of farm for vegetable farming. you have to keen vigilant about the extreme weather climatic conditions and frost as well.
you can contact me at+923143313550 or write at adnan.poda@gmail.com
Dear Adnan arshad sab this is really great efforts i really appreciate your struggles.
Dear Kakar: I am inviting you to replicate this model at you province Balochastian. Thanks for the comments
NIce work ..Even we are trying to same thing. I would like to know know list of plant species that you found to be adaptive in drought or very less water.
Yes we are doing and trying to the same things and model to cope with adversest climatic conditions in South Asia particularly our countries Pakistan, and Nepal. I am requesting you to come up for regional collaboration for weather data sharing and to develop management tools to deal with clanging climatic conditions.
Nice work Mr.Adnan keep it up its a good initiative
Thanks ata-ur-rehman, I need your active support to replicate it at regional levels for the best sake of community development and likelihood,,,,.
Dear Adan your services are rremarkable in the field of agriculture and climate protection…keep it up
I want to up-scale it with modern facilities and management tools to develop at economical model smart farm for water shortage regions.
Great thought and Nice effort adnan arshad, Keep it up i wish for your success in this project 🙂 . plus in this you can go for GMOs at least we have enough food to eat .
No, at our farm we strongly discourage GMOs and others like this, we always believe on biodiversity with traditional way, thats we are empowering rural communities to store their good quality seed of all crops and vegetables with integrated approaches and practices.
its surprising you discourage GMOs . By GMOs at least we able to feed more peoples .Every five seconds a child dies because of hunger.854 million people worldwide do not have enough to eat, more than the combined populations of the United States, Canada and the European Union.
dear adnan for you watch this . than think about it why we hate GMOs
Adnan, You are doing great. Its need of future and i hope your work will give good outcomes to our country. Hope for good future dear…
Inshallah! It will be a role model and very economical agriculture farm.
You are doing great Adnan.
well dOne brOOo ..Keep it up ..i support u …
Here l want to ask you that how are you dealing with drought and nutrient deficiency with changing climate and shift in rainfall in Pakistan
Dear Abdul Rehman; to grow under drought condition we apply the organic mulching, rooftop rainwater harvesting and micro-catchment development structures to conserve maximum rainwater in rainy season and I also improving soil organic matter and green manure cropping production. We are also growing drought tolerant crop and vegetable varieties which are performing well again drought.
Here l want to ask you that how are you dealing with drought and nutrient deficiency with changing climate and shift in rainfall in Pakistan and particularly in rain fed areas of Punjab
The average annual rainfall in the area is about 450-550 mm (Met data 2014). Monsoon cycle (from July to September) is the foremost source of rainwater which receives about 70% of the total rainfall and remaining 30% is received during winter months (from December to March). By using different rainwater harvesting techniques water resource development at small level has been done in the rain-fed areas of Punjab.
Very inspiring..
Thanks
You are doing great. keep it up.
My best wishes are always with you.
You are more welcome to visit our farm and adapt it as success replication to cope climate change extreme events.
Dear Adnan i read your work and found it very effective in capacity building of yourself and also of others. I just want to ask that you are practicing agriculture totally on organic basis on your farm? Vegetables are of very short duration crops and succulent so there are more chances of diseases and insect and pest attack so how are copping these issues by organic means? And i am happy that how you tackle the problem of water by collecting roof top rain water.
Dear Umair, Yes, Initially we were applying integrated approaches to manage weeds, insect, pest and diseases at farm but with the learning and experiences we have learned so many biological control method to ensure 100% organic food at farm.
Yes you right vegetables have shore shelf life we discourage application of chemical, but if the insect or diseased reached up-to the thresh hold level we go for natural extracts of Neem oil, Moringa leaf extract and Koortumma (Citrullus colocynthis) which are good for all of the garden diseases and pests..
Adnan its good to know that you are doing environmental friendly agriculture and also trying to ensure production on sustained bases. I just want to share that i had grown mung bean crop in the area where you are practicing now and also at NARC. Due to changing in climatic episodes i analysed the weather forecast and planned to sow crops on at different time intervals rather than conventional time of sowing. That helped me a lot in getting maximum yield due appropriate precipitation at critical time period. So i also advised you to do that for your vegetable plot. You can contact me so i will share my data with you. my email is umair.muhammad240@gmail.com.
For water filtration you should try Moringa seed powder and dry leafy matter it will improve water quality
We are applying and promoting Moringa seed powder for rainwater filtration at community level. The leaves are cooked and used like spinach, and they are also dried and powdered for use as a condiment
The seed cake remaining after oil extraction is used as a fertilizer and also to purify well water and to remove salt from seawater.
Cheap and easy source of water filtration and
purification throughout the world
Dear Sagrika there is Grapevine yard have more than 160 plants of four climate adaptive varieties (cardnor, perlit, king roobi, black NARC) and started bearing fruits after two years of plantation. In citrus orchard we have 80 plants of different citrus varieties (seedless oranges, sweet lime, red blood, grape fruits) and it starts bearing fruits after three years. We have secure our continues earning source.
Congratulations dear Adnan you are really doing smart work to earn from agriculture farming with climatic adaptive best practices. Please apply green manure cropping for soil improvements
In grapevine yard and citrus we are growing green manuring crops and legumenus crops for nitrogen enrichment into soil. at farm we also promoting inter cropping to get double advantage for our farm plants and soil to enhance the soil fertility and water holding capacity (whc).
Really a great effort of you Adnan. People across Pakistan are now experiencing unpredictable rainfall, increased temperatures and changes to the seasons. Other changes vary by region, such as increased rainfall and extreme weather events in Sindh and decreased rainfall in Balochistan. The Climate Asia Report found that compared with the other countries in this study, Pakistanis feel most strongly that these changes are having a high level of impact on their lives now (there were around 4,000 respondents to the survey in Pakistan).
you are right Mr. Asad. there is a need to create awareness and educate youth about Climate Change mitigation and adaptation to make resilience in public and private schools. This is also my main objective to create awareness among school going children and youth through awareness raising and education on climate change issues to become activist of change and participate in regional and national activities, monitoring and reporting on climate change issues and progress, as well as contribute to climate solutions.
I need your technical support in future project outreach
Its really a great effort of you Adnan. People across Pakistan are now experiencing unpredictable rainfall, increased temperatures and changes to the seasons.

Dear Mr. Adnan,
Happy to see your great devotion towards the environmental challenges faced by Pakistan right now and in future and motivating youth and women to work on this front.
So you can count me in those who has put its foot in the same area. I am writing you can email so please try to reply back.
Your are welcome and its my pleasure to have you on board. together we can do a lot of work for climate change because due to increase in population deforestation disturbed the atmosphere and biodiversity of the area. Urban community also seriously facing adverts climatic changes, like high temperature index, heat waves, low air pressure with high humidity, Monsoon floods and extreme climatic events are the big challenges there.
Good work Adnan, you are an inspiration for us who are trying to grow veggies and fruit in an organic manner. If you could advise me as how to prevent mites on my fruit trees. I used tobacco water and also tabacco mulched into the surrounding area. Help
Dear Mrs. Salim; apply the spray of Koortumma (Citrullus colocynthis) 30 ml and also you can apply Neem extract 1 litter into 6 litters of water for 30 plants.
Assalamoalaikum
Being student of chemistry I know the extensive use of chemicals that may affect the agri industry so much.well in our country it is the most valuable work to develop such processes which are less chemically exposed also world is more turning towards organics so this is equally goid in that regards
Keep it up and stay blessed
Thanks Ms. Dania, chemicals are not only harmful for our agriculture industry but also for our health because you know well most of the chemicals not degraded at higher temperatures and conditions.
I want to add by saying that such processes which are adaptable with changing climate are very necessary because climate changes are happening very rapidly its very very good that we may be able to cope with it . And these type of researches are really helpful in this regard .
We are proud of such Pakistani researchers having so much talent and passion in their field
Good luck
Thanks for your words,
Dear Adnan ! You are inspiration for the youth, your past contribution towards dryland agriculture and fodder/forages is just remarkable and i love to see your devotion towards agriculture.
* I want to ask you about the yield ratio being produced at your farm and other commercial growers, whether the total yield produced at farm meet your requirement ??
* In current situations which strategy is being used from your side to cope with the problems like insects, pests and diseases as it is difficult to mitigate such problems by organic means??
Dear Dr. Malik;
Yes we are getting potential yield of grape and citrus since 2014 at farm. Our produce is organic and its price in the capital market is higher than the other grower because they are applying fertilizer and chemicals. Initially our yield is very much low due to higher fluctuation in temperature and onset of hail-storming but we have learned a lot from those experiences and getting reasonable income from the farm because we have multiple sources of income at farm.
we are applying biological extracts of different plants to reduce the attack of harmful insect and pest, even moderate hot water is a good source to kill aphids and jasids.
My best wishes for your future, May your efforts fructuate better results for you and for the advancement towards modern agriculture.
The primary problem of climate change abrupt change the plant growing season as well as their physiology,,,
sure and extreme climatic events badly affecting on the physiological processes of plants particularly for fruit plants.
welldone brother Adnan arshad
thanks from Pakistan
Climate change has important implications for nearly every aspect of life on Earth, and effects are already being felt. on glaciers, plants, biodiversity sustainable remedies are different farming system like your work,,,,,, Highly appreciated
Dear Hussain: Climate change is global but affects people locally, urban and rural community seriously facing adverts climatic changes, like high temperature index, heat waves, low air pressure with high humidity, Monsoon floods and extreme climatic events are the big challenges in target area. Climate change is one of the most serious challenges in Pakistan and particularly for highly populated areas of rain-fed regions and hitting agriculture directly.
well done keep it up
thnaks
Brother you actually have nailed the process very well in this climatic region. Brother I my self got very inspired of your work after reading your proposal and want it to start in my friends barren land near Fatehjung. Kindly give your farm google mal location so that we can see it from here and visit. Kindly briefly tell me how you are collecting rain water and costs management?
Thanks Abuzar Abdullah, Farm is located on Chakwal Jhelum road near Mulalyal Mughlan (The area lies between 33.00ºN to 73.14ºE) … I will support you to start a farm and help you to replicate these practices at your farm as well. At farm we are collecting rainwater with multiple techniques i.e micro-catchments structures development, mulching, increase soil organic matter and rooftop rainwater harvesting.
Courtyard rain water harvesting
In situ rain water conservation/harvesting through catchment management
Pitcher planting
well done brother.I think this is one of the best method to solve some kind of environmental issues.And i am very much interested in this great task.Highly appreciated as an undergraduate of Forestry and Environmental Science.Keep it up
Thanks Lahshi from Sri Lanka; I will help you and guide you as I can to develop a climate smart forest model for your rain-fed region and research work.
Adnan, This is a great step at this growing level, as Pakistan require yours type of young generation for development. I wish you all the success in your endeavors. Please keep it up to success of our Pakistan. Best of Luck.
Thank you so much Imran bahi for your encouragement. I need your support at all.
Adnan: I hope you get all the needed funding, so that this pilot project can quickly be replicated throughout our country. We need an agricultural resurgence to offset the rapid urbanization we are experiencing, not only in the environmental context, but more importantly in the socio-cultural context.
Yes I am looking for the further funding to develop mechanized irrigation for citrus and grapevine yard to minimize water loss from soil. We also thinking to replicate it in urbane areas as rooftop kitchen gardening and promotion of grow food as compare to grass gardens. our farm is a role model for the environmental context, but more importantly in the socio-cultural context for locals communities.
This is the new future Adnan. I hope that this endeavour will take new heights most esp. to our generation – where health is at risk due to our eating habits. Moreover, you’ve touched another opportunity, which is to export than import agri-goods. Let’s go green and Live Green.
Defiantly, organic food and fruits have good impact on human health and nutrition and this a new era of earning more income to from cultivation of organic food. People want to take care as compare to take medical treatment.
good idea and that is suppose to be to all scholars of different university but why your budget expenditure analysis you used dollar currency why you didn’t use our currency so that it can be easy for others to understand
Its is very simple to convert it into local currency and from local to $ currency. Mostly when we talk about global world we use & cost effective ratio of earning. $1=102 PKR
A very timely and relevant project especially since we are now in the post antibiotic and climate change eras. I hope this pushes through especially the sake of the local farmers.
It defiantly help the local farmers and young growers to adopt agriculture as profession. I am agree we are facing biotic and abiotic stress due to climate change.
Adnan Good job…the fact that you did not only concern yourself with the profits but have the livelihoods of the women especially in mind is a game changer in farming right there.Coupled with a well thought out plan on the seasons..
You are more welcome to visit our farm and adapt it as success replication to cope climate change extreme events. this is a initiative for our own employment and present it as role model for other young peoples and unemployed youth living in rain-fed region of Pakistan and all over the world.
In regard to the changing climactic phenomenon, agriculture land is turning to fallow land, snowcapped mountains to naked black nugget, scarcity of food & water. Countries like us have less adaptive capacity to deal with, remain highly vulnerable, and thus need extra efforts to act.
you are right Hengaju; we have to develop more simple techniques and practices to deal with those environmental changes and have to introduce resilience crop and fruit varieties. Meting of snow and prolong droughts are the main causes for water and food.
aYou are inspiration for the youth, your past contribution towards dry-land and rain-fed agriculture and fodder/forages is just remarkable and i love to see your devotion towards agriculture. Are you promoting safflower oil seed crop which is good for climate change?
Dear Dr. Ali; The global climate risk index (GCRI) 2014 has ranked Pakistan among the three most affected countries worldwide for three consecutive years by climate-related catastrophes. In communities that rely on their environments to provide basic food, water, and energy resources, the impacts of climate change can be devastating. Too much or too little water can decimate crops, create food shortage and force migration.
I have evaluated the best spineless safflower line which performed efficiently along with adapted to variable climatic conditions and promote low input production technology for edible oil production among rain-fed farming community to empower them for their batter livelihoods and food security.
A safe, clean and child-friendly physical environment has emerged as cardinal for promoting holistic quality education that enables all children to achieve academic, moral and psychological excellence.
Thanks Sophiengassa; sure all the model activities are clean, healthy, and economical for community and youth to build their capacity to adapt agriculture procession as employment. It will also reduce hunger and improve sustainable agriculture food production.
Dear Adnan Arshad, i appreciate your efforts for Environmental Friendly Innovations which is necessary for improvement in crops and to save the nature.
In Pakistan, there is comparatively less awareness towards climate change so we need people which promote awareness and knowledge of nature in this country. i really appreciate your efforts in this sector.
Please continue your efforts for your country as well as for World.
We are doing the same thing and took the initiative to create awareness towards climate change so our youth can be utilized in batter manners. we also promoting awareness and knowledge of environmental friendly activities in this country and all over the world.
Brother, you are blessed with this kind of nutritious idea, there is a sayings that “necessity is the mother of invention” thus kind of a thing is a rear gem in our society.
Thanks. Keep the flag flying
thank you dear Ridwan; Your are welcome and its my pleasure to have you on board. together we can do a lot of work for climate change because due to increase in population deforestation disturbed the atmosphere and biodiversity of the area.
Adnan you are doing realy well b.coz very few people are trying to give awarness regrging this.carry on and do your best for the human beings.
Our model farm also facilitating and Improving understanding of the impact of global warming/climate on education systems, and on the educational opportunities and needs of marginalized and vulnerable groups such as youth boys and girls.
Thank you. Dear Ahmad creating awareness among youth and women are the main objectives of our model farm. We believe that women and youth together can secure natural resources efficiently as compare to men and farmers.
Adnan its good to know that you are doing environmental friendly agriculture and also trying to ensure production on sustained bases. I just want to share that i had grown mung bean crop in the area where you are practicing now and also at NARC.
–
Due to changing in climatic episodes i analysed the weather forecast and planned to sow crops on at different time intervals rather than conventional time of sowing.
1. That helped me a lot in getting maximum yield due appropriate precipitation at critical time period. So i also advised you to do that for your vegetable plot.
2. You can contact me so i will share my data with you. my email is umair.muhammad240@gmail.com.
yes you are 100% right due to it sowing time, rate and technologies are different for different crops according to their micro-climatic conditions. Please share you findings with me I have sent you email adnan.poda@gmail.com
It will also help us to get maximum out put yield from our farm resources, I will also apply it on our kitchen garden and inter cropping fields aw well. Thanks for sharing this informative research with us.
Dear Adnan you are truly doing a fantastic job you will going to be a model for all students of ARID AGRICULTURE.. keep doing hard work and also motivate young students which are just freed from arid to built a positive scope of agriulture research.
Thanks for your word and suggestions, Yes 2.2 Mha area in rain-fed region is neglected by the line departments and stakeholders but it has great potential for agriculture production and youth employment.
Excellent work Adnan Arshad
I appreciate ur views and work, humanity needs more persons like u to serve it. May God bless u a lot.
thanks for your comments
smart work Dear adnan but i have few suggestion,,,
1. You should sow such a crops which have low water required to mimimize the drought,,,,
2. Focus on drip irrigation system to minimized water losses…. through drainage or evaporation,,,
We are interested to install drip irrigation system but we have no more funding yet to go for the new development. we need $5000 for it, can you support us in?
To over come drought problem you should rely more on fruit plants rather then vegetables,,,,,
Mulching is very indispensible to over come eva-tranipiration rate,,,
We are promoting Olive plantation in Potohar region to ensure economic development and disaster mitigation. This action aims to increase the local production of edible oil in order to reduce the imports of edible oils. Further, it will generate direct and indirect livelihoods opportunities contributing to poverty alleviation by making use of conventional waste, marginal and uncultivated land and sub-mountainous areas. This olive plantation will be useful in increasing the cultivated land area that leads to food security sustainability, agro-forestry promotion and to mitigate the impacts of climate change.
Good development done by the young agriculturist in Pakistan, really impressed from him. I want to share with you some findings of IPCC #5AR EG-3 via email. I have sent you if you got it let me know. I have shared some new techniques developed by us at our research station. I am sure it will help you during your work for batter yield.
Thanks Jino from ROK. Thanks for sending it, I have received it well and this is very informative for me to organize my work according to coming changes. Your research and findings will be very helpful for me.
suggestions
1. store water during monsoon season our country have plenty of water.
2. Added soil organic matter we prevent water losses through seepage..
Thanks for your suggestion Hussain, we are conserving 70% of the Monsoon rain water every year.
How farming helps us to curtail global warming,,,,
Reducing tillage practices, No application of chemicals, no field fire and utilization of farm waste material for organic composting and no utilization of zero energy.
Adnan Arshad you are doing very good job.well done boy i am very glad to know about your research work.In rainfed area this work is very usefull.Recently Pakistan is facing water losses so i hope this project will be very helpfull for Rain-Fed Agriculture areas in Pakistan.
thanks and the area where we are working is completely rain-fed and rainfall is the only source of water for drinking, domestic purposes and agriculture productions.
How you improve Co2 sequestion at your farm,
its play pivotal role in global warming,,,,,
we are applying climate friendly techniques like no application of chemicals, minimum tillage and soil disturbance during soil preparation and zero gravity irrigation methods to prevent fuel consumption. So all these small things contributed alot to be reduce CO2 and global warming.
you said all farm produce is 100% organic according to IFOAM standards and free from all type of chemicals and GMOs. Is your farm is registered by IFOAM or Go Green Department?
Yes we are the annual member of IFAOM and member of Go Green Department, they visited our farm and assure all quality assurance measures.
wounderfull initiative Adnan. I am proud you were my student. i am suggesting you to add these objectives also 1. stainably increasing agricultural productivity, to support equitable increases in farm incomes, food security and development; (2) adapting and building resilience of agricultural and food security systems to climate change at multiple levels; and (3) reducing greenhouse gas emissions from agriculture (including crops, livestock and sheries).
For further information to improve your farm follow it http://www.fao.org/climate-smart-agriculture/en/
http://www.fao.org/climatechange/climatesmart/en/
defiantly it will reducing greenhouse gas emissions from agriculture farm and if youth from local communities have resources they will also adapt it for further development. Thanks for sharing those informative links:
At the same time climate change is already negatively impacting agricultural production globally and locally in Pakistan. Climate risks to cropping, livestock and fisheries are expected to increase in coming decades, particularly in low-income countries where adaptive capacity is weaker. Impacts on agriculture threaten both food security and agriculture’s pivotal role in rural livelihoods and broad-based development. I am happy to share it further students and graduates as a successful case study of our university.
Thanks Professor Akthar: I am requesting you to visit our farm with your research students and friends and give us more suggestions. I need your support to minimize CO2 emission from tillage because we want our farm more environmental friendly.
Great work and efforts done by you. Happy for you. Recently I have attended a online course about Climate Smart Agriculture from Cornell University, I am suggesting you to participate it. line is here http://climateinstitute.cals.cornell.edu/climate-smart-farming/
Wao this very close to my interest and farm management. I will apply for the course and thanks for sharing this Climate Smart Agriculture from Cornell University BF-140
Great work Adnan, very happy to see your effort and this is a great message for fresh graduates to start their own business utilizing their basic knowledge in agriculture and also contribute in national economy.
I have a questions in my mind that due to changing climate, disease pattern is also changing.what type of diseases have you noticed?Because in my area i noticed new pattern of diseases in nearby farms lowering the yield many times.
there are so many new diseases attack on vegetable and fruits plants due to uneven temperature and rainfall. We also facing the same condition and situation at farm but we are adapting most climatic adaptive crop, fruit and vegetable varieties which have genetic resistance against the diseases.
Very good Adnan, I really appreciate your efforts and initiatives for climate adaption and water conservation. I am also thinking to develop my farm in district Attock, I have 5 acre of land on hilly area and 500000 Rs money to start it. Please guide me and tell me how you can help us? here is my contact 03124323445
Dear Asim I am available and offering you my services free of cost to help you in development of your farm. Don’t worry about hilly track we have micro-catchment techniques for the fruits plants. You can contact me at adnan.poda@gmail.com
Unique initiative took by the young professional to mitigate climate change and water shortage. It will increase agricultural productivity and farming incomes sustainably for your batter future. It will also reduce greenhouse gas emissions from agricultural production through adoption of best management practices, and increased energy efficiency and use of renewable energy. You should install solar power system at you farm.
I am planning to install green energy station at my farm but at the same time we have no funds for installation of solar system. the cost of 24 unit panel is $4500 . Thanks for you words.
Thanks for valuable comments and suggestions i am doing efforts to increase farm resiliency to extreme weather and climate variability through adoption of best management practices for climate change adaptation.
Great and superb Work—– I believe on potential of young professional like you—- I wish you can develop this form according to climate change tune…. for a role model of other young professionals in the Developing countries especially in South Asia Region.
Yes youth here in Pakistan and all over the world has outstanding potential for sustainable development. I am requesting you to guide and help us about installation of cost effective irrigation technologies at farm
Have known Adnan from WFC hosted by UN in Durgab, SA. So happy to see this energetic youth working towards better future.
saytrees.org
WFC is the wonderful, learn a lot from there. Thanks for commenting from India. I am great promoter of http://www.saytrees.org.
Good. Keep it up!
thanks
Adan, you have done a tremendous work to combat the global challenges of climate change by the adaption of latest agricultural technology in rain-fed areas. Your passion, as a young entrepreneur, is highly encouraging to serve the rural community at very grassroots level and especially the women farmers and the youth of the locale. I request you to replicate any sort of model in South Punjab with harsh environmental and climatic conditions to design a model to overcome this issue.
Wish you good luck and success for future.
I am thinking to replicate it South Punjab because it has great potential for farming. I think there is no issue of water for irrigation? and thanks for the suggestions.
Very impressed..Climate change is a real issues nowadays in farming community.I can’t forget when cotton crop in Multan at flowering and after some days goes for picking. but suddenly climates changes with extremely rains destroyed us so your studies is a hardcore issues that raises at every forum and benefits for our Farms community.
keep it up.

Its all due to fluctuation in temperature, like now a days you see weather is going very hot in day time and this the just start of March. 36 degree temperature in March will be a alarming for the June and July we have to keep it on board. Even mangoes start flowering which may leads to the dangerous attack of fruit fly and mango mili-bug. Wheat in rain dependent regions more vulnerable to extreme climatic events.
Dear Adnan,i really appreciate your efforts in this sector.I think this is one of the best method to solve some kind of environmental issues.I have few suggestions.1.Modern irrigation systems should be adopted to use irrigation water more efficiently . 2.Local rain harvesting systems should be introduced.
Thanks for the suggestion Ms. Safdar. We are looking for the Modern irrigation systems and requested for funding to different organization like The Global Forum on Agricultural Research.
Having good Agriculture Academics background and at the same time pursuing farming is great combination.
Many congratulations for developing the climate smart model as it is the need of an hour for the well being of all .
Thanks Ms. Grace for your words.
Innovative work you are doing for food production and self-employment. I am not expert of agriculture but I know little bit about quality food production and organic farming. My wishes with you.
I will help if you want to start you own farm.
Dr. Karim here, got this idea and it is a good initiative for our youth and agriculture. keep it up.
This can be adaptive all over the world for global youth. thanks
Such a nice informative article, good for the agriculturists as a motivation and for the dissemination of knowledge.
Highly appreciated dear Adnan Arshad
Adnan its good to read about the response of all the people about your idea and how nicely you are trying to implementing on your farm this is because you are trying to improve the conditions of people. That is dire need of time to make our cropping system resilient and sustainable that should be according to current climatic situations and i am happy you are taking initiatives to giving other people a way a guideline to be followed for success.
Thank you very much for appreciation, this is a role model farm for other youth agriprenures.
Role of youth in Agriculture and Global development
The young generation is very important for agricultural and global development in many ways. Young people have a critical role in creating sustainable agricultural landscapes.
inspiring project, I don’t miss to consider it among the best! thank you to encourage the young entrepreneurs. And our food choices are important and its tarts with how we grow it. Creating jobs is our responsibility. I know you are doing well Keep it up!
Great project all the best dear its will inverse on ur familly income n revenues ur a genius good luck for future selection and success
bohat acha kam hai apka sir, Allah pak apko or kamyabi dy. apka farm dekhna chahata hon muje ap bate ga. sukria. Bashir Mirza-Chakwal
Thank you Mirza sahb. ap zaro aye or farm dekhnne mera number to apke pas hai hi. kisi be weekend pe call ke ke aa jae.
Dear Adnan Arshad, i appreciate your efforts for Environmental Friendly Innovations which is necessary for improvement in crops and to save the nature.
This is all about the smart agriculture farming for the future food security. Food for All!
Adnan for water filtration you should try Moringa seed powder and dry leafy matter it will improve water quality………../
Yes we are doing it for rainwater purification only, but this year we have plan to try for dugwell water purification at community levels. Thanks for suggestions.
well done boy i am very glad to know about your research work.In rainfed area this work is very usefull.Recently Pakistan is facing water losses so i hope this project will be very helpfull for Rain-Fed Agriculture areas in Pakistan.
he is implementing projects at farm and with other community groups to sort water shortage in rain-fed areas
Dear Adnan good work for good cause. I think it will help you more; http://www.hands.org.pk/2012/Poverty%20Model/Kitchen%20Gardening%20PAP%20on%20Farm
Thanks for sharing this informative presentations.
Adnan thanks for such a nice reply. Kind can you mention how much cost is required for installation of water collection setup?
there is 30000 PKR ($300) is required to install 300 litter of plastic tank. this is for two rooms roof top of 12*14 measurement.
Environmental friendly activities are need of time your steps to this
effort was a milestone for society and as well for environment,,,,:p
all the farm operations and activities are Environmental friendly
Dear you should work on integrated and sustainable farming system in badly drought
hited areas, to improve livehood and eco- friendly,,,,,,
Thanks for suggestion I have a plan to integrated and sustainable farming system to mitigate climatic droughts.
Cover crop technique in your farm is very crucial to prevent soil erosion which
result in wash of valuable soil nutrient untimately depleted the soil,,,,,,
Please suggest me some cover crops for my farm? which are less water demanding
Cover crop benefits
source of revenue generation,,,,,,,
More income,,,,,
diversity at your farm…..and many more
yes we have experimented it once but if you please guide us about the most adaptive varieties it will be very helpful for us.
i am waiting for your quick response,,,,, Best of Luck,,,,,
Your work is very vauable for environment,,,,,
Highly Appreciated,,,,,,,
Climate change is already affecting agriculture, with effects unevenly distributed … and irrigation systems, weather is still a key factor in agricultural productivity so your work is useful to curtail
these adverse climate effects……
Very informative and it will help me to work more efficiently to erosion control and soil protection through tree planting. thanks for sharing.
you have to do the adjustment of planting dates and crop variety; crop relocation; improved land management, e.g. erosion control and soil protection through tree planting
This is a harsh reality that we are unable to disseminate latest technology/research to local farmers.
I really appreciate all #YAP projects with very productive outcome.
Good opportunity, my idea is which is to export than import agri-goods. Let’s go green.
The world needs leaders like you with raw and fresh ideas to help us and our farmers in having a sustainable production of food. I wish you all the best! Good bless!
I will go for it after the installation of more advance technologies to cope with climate change. I am a small grower and if I got the opportunity I apply this idea. thanks.
Globally all women need to come up and support this empowerment of food production.It befits us economically, financially and domestically for youth
Our frequent visitors are the women farmers and youth from local communities.
A Wonderful initiative that will help drive to an extent the Agricultural sector of our economy at regional level, create employment opportunity for the youths. It’s the season to look inward and move away from the food craze and diversify our economy, no nation grows on being a consumer nation but rather a producing entity, let’s shift our base.
Thanks Dr. Abida; I am very happy you like my work, this is all about the results of your educational plans. you right that there is no nation grows on being a consumer nation but rather a producing entity.
Good initiative. Having grown up in a rural setting myself, I understand just how far this project can go towards transforming of lives and granting a new lease of hope to those sinking into apathy.
we have plan to try for dug-well water purification at community levels. Thanks for suggestions.
Excellent ideas on real ground, please my question is can people from other discipline or field who has passion for farming join you to learn and if yes how can they join the success train.
Thank you.
Yes, those people can lean and start their own farms. they just need six basic training’s for farming. if you have groups and students please give them my contact and email. my farm is 24/7 available to train them. Email; adnan.poda@gmail.com
Aoa. Mr.Adnan its good to hear that you are doing fabulous job. Only few people are doing this. Its realy importent to create awareness in people regard this. I will realy appreciate to you for your work. Well done
Thanks for your valuable comments to appreciate our work.
Thank you Adnan for sharing your experience with us, as a student of agriculture i really appreciate your work and efforts. Hope these practical work of our young agriculturists really bring some positive change in rural and agriculture community. Stay Blessed
Inshallah! it will bring very positive change in our agriculture and food production. My aim to promote cost effective production technologies for farming communities. Thanks brother.
This is one important way to drive agricultural development and simultaneously improve household welfare through the empowerment of young people. I hope detailed data on everyone participating in the project will be accurately collected and recorded and made open access, for possible econometric evaluations of the project’s impacts. Kudos and all the best. if you need my input write abdia.qua@qa.pk
It will also improve the per unit yield which will help rural farmers to earn more from agriculture farming. I will contact with you and visit you office also. Thanks for your time and suggestions.
What a great initiative. Yes it is very true implementing theory to practice not only gives much more satisfaction but also proves to be tremendously helpful for Society and Country. Having good Agriculture Academics background and at the same time pursuing farming is great combination.
Many congratulations for developing the climate smart model as it is the need of an hour for the well being of all .
I am thinking to replicate it South Punjab because it has great potential for farming. I think there is no issue of water for irrigation? and thanks for the suggestions.
Due to changing in climatic episodes i analysed the weather forecast and planned to sow crops on at different time intervals rather than conventional time of sowing.
1. That helped me a lot in getting maximum yield due appropriate precipitation at critical time period. So i also advised you to do that for your vegetable plot.
weather forecast is very important. thanks for your appreciations, yes I am doing awareness sessions for youth and women particularly jobless young people who have cultivated land. thanks for suggestions.
Wow. This is really impressive to save rainwater. With a few more like you and other young agriculturist, I know the economy will turn around for the better.
we are applying climatic adaptive crop rotation with zero tillage practices. Safflower is the best climate adaptive crop for the rain-fed regions of Pakistan and all over the world.
that is need of time to grow even water scarce areas to meet human needs.
I Wish you best of Luck for future Endeavors
keep it up……
Thanks for your words as professional
Making a good positive impact of people society and giving hope to hopeless individual, changing individual perspective on farming that youth also can be involve, that farming is more than using how and cultlass and that a good furtune can be made out of farming.
Chat Conversation End
Thanks We are dealing with drought with application of organic mulching, rooftop rainwater harvesting and micro-catchment development.
You arr doing very good job adnan. I am proud of you being a Pakistani you are really struggling hard in that environmental conditions. Keep it Up. I would like to give more suggestion with respect to drought conditions of prolong dry season in the area during April to June each year.Try to apply bio char amendments in the soil.
Thanks Dr. Faraz for your words and suggestions. I will apply bio char amendments in the soil to enhance the water holding capacity along with its fertility.
I have always admired your work. This is a great step at this level. I wish you all the success in your endeavors. It will not only sharp your skills but also improve the knowledge of the local community.
My mission is to promote cost effective production technologies and crop varieties which are adaptive to our micro-climate change. I will also request you to help us with innovative approaches.
Great! These are the kinds of ideas from passionate young people that we need to support! Continue forwarding our cause for agriculture, brother!
This will also create motivations among the young agri-growers to adapt more sustainable income generation opportunities.
Informative article! This is the new future. I hope that this endeavour will take new heights most esp. to our generation – where health is at risk due to our eating habits. Moreover, you’ve touched another opportunity, which is to export than import agri-goods. Let’s go green.
I touched another opportunity to grow food and fruit, which is to export than import agri-goods….
It’s a great proposal project!
I am glad you are so motivated and wish you success. You are the example of rural youth population.
thank you very much and good luck.
Thanks Kamran, so many youth members contacted me and show their interest to adopt this model farm as replication for the batter livelihood.
It is nice initiative and where u want to the implement. It there any partnership needed or not?
Yes I need your and all of your friends participation to replicate it on other locations and sites. Please give us some inputs and funds if your organization can donate some seeds also.
I am very thankful to you. You take care about our village very much. Everybody said to me, that they want to support you, but as you know only few people have Internet facility and they don’t use social media yet.
Many votes to you from our villagers as well.
Thanks for your vote and comments. This is just because youth in rural areas always neglected for these type of opportunities and skills.
Lovely projects of Adnan. It comes at a time when there is a need for our country to depart from food and water source for other funds. More grace and wishes for you.
Ameen
All those initiatives are taken on the bases on their needs to aware the locals about smart agriculture farming to ensure food and water security in Pakistan.
It is a good programme.I have interest.How can I be part of this?
You are welcome to join us for this noble cause. Please bring your students and researchers for demonstration visit. If you can support us with Sunflower seeds for one acre.
Good work, It comes at a time when there is a need for our country to depart from oil and source for other funds. More grace,.I have interest.How can I start my own home farm?
You can start it at your home with very little effort. If possible please write us a email our team will contact you and guide about it. This will also decrease the demand of food and give some rest to the agriculture lands for sustainable agriculture.
This is a good role model for other young entrepreneur to adopt it as profession. Is there any crop modeling skill tool are you applying at farm to deal with water and soil?
Our maximum projects are to bring youth for agriculture entrepreneurship.I am applying crop modeling tools to cope with climate change and simulations of weather and rainfall. For soil I have no specific crop model, if you have any please share it with us.
Thanks for your comments and suggestion all of you friends, researcher and scientist to support my work and guide me to improve my work. Please help me to improve my skills and practices for youth development.
dear all; we are doing and trying to the same things and model to cope with adversest climatic conditions in South Asia particularly our countries Pakistan, and Nepal. I am requesting you to come up for regional collaboration for weather data sharing and to develop management tools to deal with clanging climatic
well don adnan, you doing really good job and i am impressed by your work.
Thanks for your support Khuram. Share it with your fiends and class fellows at village level.
This is a good role model for other young entrepreneur to adopt it as profession. Is there any crop modeling skill tool are you applying at farm to deal with extreme climatic events?
We are implementing and utilizing some crop modeling skills to enhance the validity of weather with early forecasting of rainfall with other extreme climatic events. This is good to deal with CC.
I also want to develop a farm of off-season vegetable production but I have not any guidance and experience I want to ask about the cost and arrangements for establishing a farm…?????
Seasonal and off-seasonal vegetable manuals are there with us if you need please write us an email we will guide you about complete production technology. Initial cost will be $5000-7000 of one acre of land for kitchen gardening.
Very productive work you are doing dear Adnan. My best wishes for your future, May your efforts fluctuate better results for you and for the advancement towards modern agriculture.
Thanks Dr. Arslan this is the start of these initiatives to seeing the results I will expand it to further communities and youth group
Adnan introduce some seedless grapevine varities at your farm, if you need nuressry i can help you to get it.. just call me
We have experimented two seedless varieties of grapes but both are not suitable for rain-fed climatic conditions. I will call you dear and please give us some indigenous varieties.
Great work Adnan, your work is tremendous to mitigate the global challenges of climate change utilization latest agricultural technology in rain-fed areas. Your passion, as a young entrepreneur is a source of inspiration for other young researchers, keep it up
this is all about my mission/profession and initiatives. I will keep it up.
Adnan you are truly doing a fantastic job you will going to be a model for all students of ARID AGRICULTURE.. keep doing hard work and also motivate young students which are just freed from arid to built a positive scope of agricultural and food production.
Field crops adaptation and production to cope changing climate and ensure food security
Rainwater harvesting and its efficient utilization
very productive work ad.
why your budget expenditure analysis you used dollar currency why you didn’t use our currency so that it can be easy for others to understand?
Changing climate, nutrient scarce soils and uneven rainfall pattern makes this region more vulnerable to prolong droughts and food insecure for small farmers particularly for young growers.
Very impressive . you are targetting the real issue regarding Climate change nowadays in farming community. well done Adnan
Thanks, dear arslan for your throughout support.
You work regarding the climate change and irregation is so impressive welldone AD
I am looking forward to install more innovative technologies for cost effective farm inputs.
Very inspiring project and It should be supported as all the whole world is looking toward making this planet to be more secure by increasing food production before 2030.
It also covering vision 2025 of Pakistan and food production Sustainable Goals for batter input of these issues to reduce huger.
Great stuff and keep it up for good purpose. However what’s the key distinction between permaculture and other sustainable agricultural models. Is it that it’s purely organic? Please enlighten me more.
Got all these insights after spending five years in climate smart farming and visiting majority of farms in pakistan. However I am happy to realize it quickly and being able to plan it all.
You have done a remarkable work in rainfed agriculture i found this project very useful and fruitfull for the furture development of Rainfed Agriculture.
Good to hear from you Naeem……It might take time to develop our Indigenous varieties but I am sure we can develop them as they have lot of potential to prove wonderful to rain-fed conditions.
What a great initiative. Yes it is very true implementing theory to practice not only gives much more satisfaction but also proves to be tremendously helpful for Society and Country. Having good Agriculture Academics background and at the same time pursuing farming is great combination.
Thanks a lot Khan ji for your best wishes and always supporting our work. Without the support if In laws it is difficult for a women to do anything but I am lucky to have caring and supporting In laws such as you to helpful for Society and Country.
Farming practice is very healthy activity in order to curtail the effect of climate change,,,,,
it help in carbon dioxide sequestion,,,, contributes to reduce global warming,,,,
Many thanks Hussain for encouraging words. Support from people such as you keeps us going to carbon dioxide sequestration. (#IPCC 5th AR WG-3)
Many thanks for giving such an important information and contact. Yes I have plans to visit your model farm to get good organic vegetables and I will now definitely visit University.
I appreciate you took time to read the blog and for giving very crucial inputs.
Thanks for support from people such as you keeps us going.
I am very much sure the project proposal of yours would definitely brings up in the top position in the discussions related to the climate change stress mitigation strategies and gets accepted for funding. Wish you all the best.
its all about the climate change stress mitigation strategies and model farm to deal with it.
Adnan all the best to you in your dream project. Educated people like you are badly needed by India to develop the largely traditional agricultural sector. Wish you a great success.
It my dream and mission to educate women and youth to educate them, build their capacities to earn great and make them peaceful citizen.
Good efforts and very promoting role played by different agricultural organisations too.
I appreciate their efforts too.Yes number of educated people in agriculture is less however there is being an increase in the involvement of youth in agriculture as I can see especially on platforms such as this one. It is always great to see youth seriously involved in different areas of agriculture across globe.
I am sure there will be increased involvement of youth in timed to come and such activities as this one to give seed fund to entrepreneurs will keep them motivated and connected.
This is a role model farm for all the youth. We are implementing and utilizing some crop modeling skills to enhance the validity of weather with early forecasting of rainfall with other extreme climatic events. This is good to deal with CC and CO2;;/
http://newsroom.unfccc.int/unfccc-newsroom/2015-momentum-for-change-lighthouse-activities/
very informative projects and very relevant of my work. Thanks for sharing it.
Well with reagard to climate change u have done an awesome work in the country like pakistan i really appericate that pakistan still have a lot of talent to work like that keep rise n shine.
Very innovative idea, gone are the days we depended on naturally sprouting mushrooms that took a year or even more to spring up. thanks to you
I am hopeful it will support growth as well as retain soil moisture. Moreover, Under climatic change scenario follow IPCC guidelines to sequester more carbon from the atmosphere under UN REDD program or CDM. For this you can consult Inspector General of Forest Ministry of Climate Change.
I have developed some skill scores for crop modeling like early weather information system, irrigation scheduling according to the rainfall and little bit application of Crop-Wat model.
To deal with extreme climatic event I we are applying climatic adaptive crop rotation with zero tillage practices.
Safflower is the best climate adaptive crop for the rainfed regions of Pakistan
In my areas farmers are facing a new challenge of water insufficiency. Therefore, restrictions on second crop rice production have been announced by the government in response to water supply insufficiency during the dry season. Smallholder farmers are also facing higher prices for chemical fertilizer, lack of labor for their farms, and the decreasing market price of rice.
Smallholder farmers are also facing higher prices for chemical fertilizer so we discourage it , lack of labor for their farms we will motivate youth to work in farms, and the decreasing market price of rice we can talk about it with locals marketing agent.
Adnan you should grow pulses and you know that 2016 is the year pulses; The IYP 2016 aims to heighten public awareness of the nutritional benefits of pulses as part of sustainable food production aimed towards food security and nutrition. The Year will create a unique opportunity to encourage connections throughout the food chain that would better utilize pulse-based proteins, further global production of pulses, better utilize crop rotations and address the challenges in the trade of pulses.
Yes I have started it, and we sowed lintels, grams and green-mong to follow this campaign. We are creating awareness throughout the food chain that would better utilize pulse-based proteins, further global production of pulses.
Good Adnan. This project is of crucial importance in terms of environment protection, climate change effects mitigation, as well as productivity increase thus achieving on sustainable development
Thanks for your words Song. YEs it will defiantly reduce climate change effects and enhance the productivity of the farming communities .
Your project is perfect it will improve environment management by reducing amount of chemicals used as fertilizers and increasing use of organic ones.

Thanks Khan i look forward to this accomplishment related to change in climatic conditions.
thanks for your appreciations, yes I am doing awareness sessions for youth and women particularly jobless young people who have cultivated land but they not willing to do agriculture due to adverts climate change.
Great job…the fact that you did not only concern yourself with the profits but have the livelihoods of the women especially in mind is a game changer in farming right there.Coupled with a well thought out plan on the seasons.
We are implementing and utilizing some crop modeling skills to enhance the validity of weather with early forecasting of rainfall
Great initiative and directly linked to the implemenation of world Agenda 2030 (the 17 Sustainable Development Goals).Support to this initiative is key contrubution to the global appeal to “Leave no one behind”.
Thankyou so much for your best wishes.
Yes very less people know about our own exceptional Agenda 2030,.
Our food choices are important and its tarts with how we grow it. Creating jobs is our responsibility. I know you are doing the same with your Media house! Keep it up!
To deal with extreme climatic event I we are applying climatic adaptive crop rotation with zero tillage practices. Thanks for the comments and suggestions.
I really believe he will be a success. In fact, he already is. Not only does he have a bachelor’s degree in agriculture and a permaculture design certificate, but he has the land and other resources on which to grow the mushrooms. This YAP grant will give give him the added boost to get his entrepreneurial venture going.
Thanks for your detail words Sami Khan; , this farm also providing new techniques, seeds and production methodologies’ to local community to replicate it along with a platform to share their issues.
I am hoping for the best YAP

Thanks Pomien for support.
What a great initiative. It will benefit so many people. Thank you for your good work, I endorse this climate project.
Yes it will benefit so many people particularly Youth and women.
Why dont you use bio-degradable bags or renewable bags to avoid situation dealing with waste in future at your farm?
We are not using any bags ans fertilizers at farm so there is no waste at farm.
Adnan I wanted to start a business that could address this challenge. Hence, I persued tertiary education in Agriculture and obtained my National Diploma of Crop Production in the year 2008.
wonderful, i happy with you for took this initiative for agriculture and crop production.
Its a good thing that a person like be involved in agriculture and help people who don’t know how to maintain their farms. Especialy where I live we give easy when we don’t see plants. I believe you’ll come and assist us.
Goodluck
Thanks for the detail comments;, sure and extreme climatic events badly affecting on the physiological processes of plants particularly for fruit plants. Yes i have good believes for youth agric profession.

sounds like a good initiative that can help existing and aspiring farmers in our area. with support structures like these we could have more entrepreneurs in the field of farming in the coming years
Thanks, I can to develop a climate smart forest model for your rain-fed region and research work farming in the coming years.
Dear all thanks; it is one thing to know, and another to implement.
This is the reason why with this new business, we’ll offer on-farm consultations, farmer mentorship, production plans & budgets, etc. All these services are meant to assist the farmer implement what he’s learnt…
We are taking it further than a mere in-class training or just selling products and avoiding Climate Changes Affects on Agriculture.
Good leaders guide people in achieving their task. I believe that if you develop well your project the World our country and your Village will benefit more. Luck luck!
We will cultivate this idea into our and all the rain-fed communities of Pakistan and all the south Asia
Make it sustainable for the development. The impact is very visible. Try to work with smallholder farmers then teach them how to construct good composters so that you can find the compost easily.
Than you Sultan sir ji for keeping us motivated and hopeful for small growers .
Organic agriculture is a production system that sustains the health of soils, ecosystems and people. lets go for it Adnan
Many thanks Asadi ji for encouraging words. Support from people such as you keeps us going .

great article ad as you always make the best out of odds.. your hard work and intellect can clearly be seen in your projects .you’ve very tactfully addressed serious ground level issues like insurance, poverty, stress issues
Thank you so much for your appreciation.
My other question is that how can we improve and take proper care of this vegetables during extreme climatic events onset as these are one of the best model.
There are different techniques to protect it from climate disasters like mulching with plastic and crop residues along with covering by biomass. Yes efforts need to be made to promote these techniques. Few State Governments are promoting among farmers.
Yet another blog which is mind storming….
Love your spirit in taking and Inspiring others to take path and employ methods which questions the typical mindset and culture.
All the best for your new venture.
Many thanks for your wishes. Do visit our smart climate model farm.
You are very right in pointing that given the Pakistani climatic conditions and financial status of average farmers and youth to earn good We cannot leave our small farmers behind . We have to take them ahead along with us for the betterment of all.
Farmers will be able to produce food and vegtables lower cost for reasons stated above in the blog and consumers
Adnan I have a question that, are you creating awareness among youngsters to adopt agriculture as their entrepreneurship?
Through awareness session, training, and demonstration visits of youth to our farm.
Do visit our farm once you are in Pakistan and we will show you our work.
I am very much sure the proposal of yours would definitely brings up in the top position in the discussions related to the climate change stress mitigation strategies and gets accepted for funding. Wish you all the best.
You are very right in stating that inclusion of exotic flora/ fauna damages the ecosystem of the area and negatively impacts local species.
Yes Climate Resilient Livestock has become very important work if we are to work in the direction of Sustainable Agriculture.
Thanks a lot for writing all so well and for your best wishes.
Thats great appreciatble effort and work done by you this is the thing need youngster develop future and you are promoting dairy farming it is very important you are sharing your knowledge and experience and this is right time to promoting this type of ideas and this type of business opportunities becoz our government also supported through start up and in future broad opportunities we are very impressed with your business and ideas
I am sure awareness among our farmers regarding Indigenous and innovative techniques will rise faster now.
This is one important way to drive agricultural development and simultaneously improve household welfare through the empowerment of young people.
Thanks for liking our work for household welfare through the empowerment of young people.
I really appreciate your efforts.
Pakistan need Individual like you to come up to the expectations of the Nation…………….At least away from all politics, castism and other social issues
Thanks Mahira; Yes absolutely right and thanks again for your kind words.
it seems a nice project. I just want to ask about socio economic impacts of this project on country level.
It will impact of country economy, food production, youth employment and mitigate climate change Thank you for your blessings. It means a lot to us.
Best Regards
A. Arshad !!! I wish u a very good luck for your current project and hope you will boost up the food to a high by applying innovative ideas in climate smart farming sector.same time u should have to try for providing employment for others….
Regards:
I suggest you should build your farm near a town it will ease things for food security.
Such a great idea. I believe this is what should be done in rain-fed farms. A brilliant proposal from a young pakistani
It will bring very positive change in farming.
Are your family members, friends and youth from communities involve in business?
Yes, my father and younger brother are involved as part time, but I am the technical expert at farm.
Adnan there are two things that a successful entrepreneur has to have.its technical ability and marketing .do you have a reliable market?
You are right Radeal but we have not good markets for organic production.
Make it sustainable for the development. The impact is very visible. Try to work with smallholder farmers then teach them how to construct good composers so that you can find the compost easily.
My main target communities are the small ans climate vulnerable farming communities of the rain-fed region in Pakistan.
Adnan Arshad you re one of active young Agricultural Researcher i ever meet. Our Ministry of Agriculture and Natural Resources need people like you.
Thanks Aleem, No no i am not interested in ministry I love to work as I am doing.
Good leaders guide people in achieving their task like you dear. I believe that if you develop well your project the World our country and your Village YOUTH will benefit more. Luck luck!
Dear Hadier I am just only a whistle blower to aware our poor farming and jobless youth groups for ways to employments.
I support the initiative because it is going to create employment for youth in the locality along cope climate changes impacts. Forum Asia is always support you. Good Work AD;
Thanks for respecting my work, thanks for continues support of Forum Asia for future
The best entrepreneur and role youths needs to emulated this guy.he has done great.self employment is a sure way of earning money.
I need you and your friends to share this model among rural communities of your district.
Organic food, sustainable, portable gardening, you can use anytime of year and anywhere in the world . Check out our site, for some interesting information and products. http://www.ipcc.ch
Thanks Ram for sharing website. This website carrying very informative projects and information for us and youth also.
Good work for empowering women farmers and youth to manage their own seed and farm enterprises enables them to become decision-makers in the community.
Women and youth are the main target group of this project.
Soils host a quarter of our planet’s biodiversity. Soil is one of nature’s most complex ecosystems.
You right Libra mam, soil conservation and fertility is very important to beat climate change.
it contains a myriad of organisms which interact and contribute to the global cycles that make all life possible:
Organic matter, nutrients and micro-organism also contribute a lot.
Please help me to understand it; Agriculture Production under threat by Climate Change.
Climate Extremes (Drought, Floods and Heatwaves) cut global Cereal Production by 10% in 50 years

Agriculture in Pakistan is highly vulnerable to climate change because there is no other source of water for crops in rain-fed areas. Too much rain and no rain is the more drastic situation for low production,
adnan; work with plants to pull nitrogen from the air. They turn the nitrogen into a form the plant is able to use. In return, the plant lets the microbes eat some of the sugars it makes.
We are experimenting legume-nus crops to improve the nitrogen in soil by nitrogen fixation bacteria.
We always talk about youth are lacking of interest in agriculture, what if we are well informed and even experienced the beauty of agriculture? This opens a door for the children, the future youth. Good idea.
That why I am involved in agriculture to represent it in simple and more earning profession to youth. It will aware them and motivate them to adapt it.
A very timely and relevant project especially since we are now in the post antibiotic and climate change eras. I hope this pushes through especially the sake of the local farmers.
Both Biotic and abiotic stresses are there in agriculture farming due to change in climatic conditions. I will. Thanks.
We hope that our proposal will be chosen. Surely, climate change is one of the biggest challenges in food production.
It will be chosen with your support and suggestion for the batter food production and sustainable agriculture youth employment.
This is a great idea. Hope that this proposal will push through.
It will be in future, idea is good to mitigate real state climatic situations.
let’s live organic and live longer to have fany in our safe evironment
Good quality food without any chemical and pesticide; Live healthy Eat healthy 🙂
What a brilliant idea! This sounds like an amazing project!
This is the only kind of project in this area to help farming communities to build resilience among the youth and linked them with modern agriculture.
Adnan at present not only our country needs these steps rather, whole world can get benefited through such initiatives. A very good concept Adnan i wish you best of luck with your work. Best wishes for you.
Thanks Dr. Akrim for your comments and suggestion and wishes for our project. Please share it on your website fr further outreach. Regards;
Happy on ur hard work brother ,good job done well .Really we need some more active stars like u to uplift of place.Keep on going good luck……..
Thanks you thanks Nizami brother. Defiantly It will be more innovative and modern for our youth after the completion of this smart water irrigation system.
I hope people realize your good-will, and motivation and help you with whatever they can. This is a small lamp which can light the whole country. Best wishes!
More than 350 families are getting benefit initially, we are facilitating them with 30% share of our farm products on very economical rats. It will be more wider………../
However, I do have one suggestion. You should try to engage more youths, specially from other agriculture schools and communities to come and help as volunteers in your project.
Nawaz brother thank you very much for suggestions; I have no more extra funds to spend for this, but we are trying to get some funding for this component. We have all the training and awareness manuals for this activity.
we youths have to create opportunities and indulge people within the nation. And this project exactly does the same.
I am creating it for jobless youth here in my region, here are seven district and more than 60% population is consisted on youth age group 15-27. This is a model farm for the youth.
A change maker of the rural village. Nice concept of raising money and staring farm.
It will be more change maker for the rural youth farmers to raising more employment and starting their own farming.
This is really a very productive project adnan! I wish you a good luck for further success in this one! Very happy for you.
Dear Dr. Mehfoz, thanks for support and best wishes:
This project is very timely and relevant to us. Indeed, there is a need to conserve native animal genetic resources as this is one of the best ways whereby we can address climate change-related problems.
We will introduce climatic resilient animal farm in near future to build a model farm of it. Thanks ofr suggestion and noted well for further actions.
Great job…the fact that you did not only concern yourself with the profits but have the livelihoods of the women especially in mind is a game changer in farming right there.Coupled with a well thought out plan on the seasons..
Women and Youth are the two main target groups of us to motivate them, educate them and build their capacities for their sustainable livelihoods skills.
Dear Adnan i would like to suggest that there should be awareness education component in your work. Since through similar projects local communities can raise more income instead of sowing only crops. The demand of organic fruits is high in Pakistan and people pay more money for organic fruits. So your project must have a community involvement component, in this way we can strengthen local communities and these activities can have a positive impact on their socio-economic conditions. I hope you will consider my suggestions. Best of luck.
Dear Dr. Akrim: thanks for your detail and very prompt response on my work. Our project have the specific quota for locals and we are organizing monthly training and education sessions at our farm for community welfare. I noted all and thanks for all the suggestions.
ur food choices are important and its tarts with how we grow it. Creating jobs is our responsibility. I know you are doing the same with your Media house! Keep it up!
I personally know 23 youth and w12 women farmer who started their smart model farm, our expert helped them to install all those new techniques at their own farm, now they are earning money from it.
I am very much sure the proposal of yours would definitely brings up in the top position in the discussions related to the climate change stress mitigation strategies and gets accepted for funding. Wish you all the best.
We started it as a experiment and after that I expand it further to realizing for community and youth support. Because climate science is very new for youth involved in agriculture business.
Good leaders guide people in achieving their task. I believe that if you develop well your project the World our country and your Village will benefit more. Luck luck!
Thanks Aalam, I tried my level best and will improve it further.
The best entrepreneur .youths needs to emulated this guy.he has done great.self employment is a sure way of earning money.
I always suggest to youth that AGRICULTURE is the best ENTREPRENEUR
well done ………. you work is the hope for Nation, keep it up.
This is just with your support and help of God, otherwise I am just a source.
Adnan ! well done, keep it up. good luck for your project.
Thanks for the suggestions and comments to appreciating youth work.
You arr doing very good job . I am proud of you being a Pakistani you are really struggling hard in that environmental conditions. Keep it Up. I would like to give more suggestion with respect to drought conditions of prolong dry season in the area during April to JUne each year.
I need more funds and to install ore meteorological system for early warning system to inform youth farmer before the extreme climatic changes, like floods, rainfall and hail-storming..Thanks for the suggestions and comments to appreciating youth work.

This YAP grant will give give him the added boost to get his entrepreneurial venture going.
Great achievement adnan;
It will be if selected for the further replication and installation to reach maximum youth entrepreneur to adopt it as profession and earn more with less input cost.
Is there any crop modeling skill tool are you applying at farm to deal with extreme climatic events?
Yes , APSIM, COPWat, DSSAT and SWAT models
.In rainfed area this work is very usefull.Recently Pakistan is facing water losses so i hope this project will be very helpfull for Rain-Fed Agriculture areas in Pakistan.Many Many best wishes
More than two month drought for wheat crop is big stress for good grain yield and organic matter will enhance the soil water holding capacity for longer period time.
ADNAN! I know you can make this project work. You have a great track record.
Thanks for your support and writing this for our support.
start my own agriculture farm and develop it according to the climate smart adaptation practices.
Okay madam we will think about your farm, Is it possible if I deployed a youth expert at your farm? where is located?
This project is of crucial importance in terms of environment protection, climate change effects mitigation, as well as productivity increase thus achieving on sustainable development
defiantly tahir it will reduce the crop and fruit failure due to climate change and it will increase productivity and income.
good work!
Thanks
This project is perfect it will improve environment management by reducing amount of chemicals used as fertilizers and increasing use of organic ones.
That why we are promoting organic inputs to grow organic food and provide our costumer 100% organic food free from any type of synthetic material.
That’s greater let’s make our environment sustainable by producing healthy products.
SDG 2030/ end hunger and enhance opportunity for youth employment for sustainable livelihood.
Good job. It provides long-term benefits to people and the environment
Sure it will be more helpful for the indigenous farming communities.
well done. I really appreciate this
Thanks Dear Anjum for your comments and like our work for food security through youth employment.
this is very interesting project, keep this up and you will achieve more and more
i wish you success!!!
Thanks for the suggestions and comments to appreciating youth work.
It will be more inserting when it will be facilitated with modern and efficient irrigation model at farm which will improve water use efficiency and conserve more water at farm. Thanks for support.
This is a harsh reality that we are unable to disseminate latest technology/research to local farmers.
I really appreciate this project with very productive outcome.
Thanks for comments. I know but we are disseminating latest technology/research to local farmers.
Great work in such a young age.
Carry on and one day we shall be among top agri nations.
I was only 23 when i started my professional mechanized model farm now we are creating awareness and education among youth.
I love how your project is friendly to the environment; more “clean realiable sources” of energy is what the present climate needs; well done
All the project activities are 100% climate friendly and adaptive to the local climatic conditions.
Rural youths,deserves the opportunity to be incorporated into big business.
Sensually, they are neglected through-out the policies by government, But we are playing our active role.
a well thought out idea,keep the good and productive nature
This the real based needed idea by the youth to support them and link them with agriculture.
Great thought adnan. I agree with you that any business particularly agri related should take into account the local conditions. I am sure your efforts will make a meaningful contribution
Thanks Ms. Ayesha;, this model farm in totally adaptive to the local climatic conditions and communities.
This project is well harmonized you can improve it and look for all necessities to make it more profitable.
It will be in good command after the installation of efficient irrigation model at the farm to save more water from waste. Thanks Kiran.
Try to improve it by using agricultural extension systems. It may be more efficient. Moreover, this project will play an important role in fighting against malnutrition
I am developing IEC (Information, Education and Communication) material for effective understanding. Yes our team is also approaching to the malnutrition communities for their education.
Organic agriculture is a production system that sustains the health of soils, ecosystems and people. lets go for it Adnan
Organic production good for Soil and Human health also and very good for our environmental conditions as well. Thanks Fiaz.
You are correct that our idea is promising but we hope that our idea will turn into reality smile emoticon
This is a very relevant project for the local native crops raisers: an answer to increase their income despite the problems brought about by climate change
Dear Khan current rain spell is very effective for Wheat and Safflower crop in rain-fed region, youth learning new techniques to deal with droughts.
This is a great project! This will surely help the agricultural aspect of the country.
Thanks Turi Sir it will be more helpful for jobless youths of this region.
Maximizing our very own resources helps our farmers especially. We mustn’t let foreign products overpower local ones. Great job on this! I hope this bears fruition soon!
It will get more success and we will meet our set targets. Thanks for suggestion Hussain about our improvement.
An eye-opener for the young researchers to support and advocate the utilization of resources.
You are right Ahmed and it will impact on our youth and country economy as well.
This is a great proposal! Hope this can be funded very soon since food production is very relevant in the Pak! Cheers to the proposer! Good job!!
Respected Dr. Khan I have started this project three years back and now looking for its replication and improvement for others particularly climate vulnerable women and youth groups.
I see this as a total game changer for the agricultural aspect since we mainly rely from what the media or the mass say that is good. Goodluck on doing so
Thank you so much.
We are encouraged by our experience of farm to farm mentoring program, and now we are trying to conduct onsite the climate
It is good that your proposal will promote effective utilization of our native genetic resources. Please always recognize our farmers.
Thank you so much for your compliments and suggestion with best wishes.
We will share our progress with you 🙂
Great proposal! Hope it could earn support from LGUs, private sectors and the DA. Kudos!
It would be; We would like to work together with you., Thank you so much for your appreciation 🙂
This is a very nice proposal! If you win I hope that this idea would be known all-over the country! But for the mean time, I’d like to ask, how many of the farmers do you plan on training, as said on the second-year layout?
Inshallah! It will get good impact also. Thank you so much for your comment.
Agreeing with you,
And what will you do to convince them to join you on this venture? What could they possibly gain during the training (ex. Incentives such as payment, etc.)?
Thank you!
Thank you so much for your comment and suggestions; They will learn modern techniques, weather information, agronomic practices and marketing.
Please request your friends to comment on our proposal, support us to make this real!
We were taught that cultivation changes characteristics of wild varieties as in the case of plants (i.e. cabbage).
Thank you
Thank you so much for your comment. we will try it sir.
Agreeing with you, we have already started a pilot model climate smart farm in three regions.
Pakistan has to increase food production by 40-50% to meet the needs of a projected population of 221 million by 2025 –
Thanks for your wonderful sharing of information. Yes, we are also growing from same level. We used to share based on our knowledge and experience by thinking, it might be good for beginners.
Agriculture sector accounts for about 23% of the country’s GDP, 55% of the labour force and supports industry by providing raw material.
Thanks for sharing the facts and figures. I have started this project three years back and now looking for its replication and improvement for others particularly climate vulnerable women and youth groups.
It is the main livelihood source of the rural community, yet it suffers from water shortage, frequent droughts and poor farming practices. – See more at: http://www.agricorner.com/pakistan-must-increase-food-production-by-40-50/#sthash.eptr6nj1.dpuf
very relevant and informative link. Thank you so much.
We are encouraged by our experience of farm to farm mentoring program, and now we are trying to conduct onsite the climate
Good work on climate change and It also exposes rural communities to high vulnerability; especially to women and children.
Dear youth are the our main target beneficiaries to deliver those smart climatic techniques. They will get more benefit from this project. Thanks for suggestion.
we should have some effort for manufacturing environmental friendly things in every field of production, as i have participated in this effort by producing a new surfactant that is biologically degradable after its application to textile production sector.
My all the farm operations are climate adaptive and seed, fruits and crops are well adaptive to it. To minimize other extreme events I am practicing resistant varieties seed as well.
From a climate justice perspective, addressing the root causes of the climate crisis also requires tackling social inequalities and eradicating forms of oppression that movements can also reproduce, including gender inequalities.
We would like to work together with you., Thank you so much for your appreciation 🙂
is is amazing. finally, youths are taking initiatives to eliminate drudgery in agriculture.
Thank you so much for your comment.
Agreeing with you, we have already started a pilot model climate smart farm in three regions.
this is definitely the way to go. thumbs up!
youths are taking initiatives to eliminate drudgery in agriculture.
We all need to embrace the weeder to really tackle the menace of drudgery in our society.
Thanks for your wonderful sharing of information. Yes, we are also growing from same level. We used to share based on our knowledge and experience by thinking, it might be good for beginners.
This innovation should be a welcomed idea to tackle the model;
They will get more benefit from this project. Thanks for suggestion.
Great initiative, and good idea :). good luck
Thanks.
This is awesome a concept. Further, you should come with the following;
1) projected cost per unit,
2)average selling price per unit
2) Projected sales volume

Innovative project.This project seems to be beneficial to both producer and consumer.
Adnan Arshad
Thank you so much for your compliments and suggestion with best wishes.
Really great idea, there is great demand of wine inside and outside the country. Since, our country farmers are compel to sell their produced orange at very low rate, the industry like you have proposed will certainly going to respect the farmer handwork and motivate them for orange and Banana Cultivation.
I have started this project three years back and now looking for its replication and improvement for others particularly climate vulnerable women and youth groups.
thanks.

Dear Adnan kindly elaborate on initial cost required for starting such setup in Rawalpindi, Pakistan. Also give suggestions which may help people interested in starting their own farm.
initial cost for one acre farm is 500000-800000 but you can start it with low income with minimum land area. My all the farm operations are climate adaptive and seed, fruits and crops are well adaptive to it. To minimize other extreme events I am practicing resistant varieties seed as well.
These days villagers cannot save money because they spent all income in exchange of their daily needs. Through such ideas, local communities can earn and save money as a part time work.
You are right. It will be more economical and helpful for young people; those wanted to start it.
Great effort adnan we are with you. Best wishes for your success.
yes it will bring more youth in agriculture business for batter livelihoods

It will give attractive employment to rural youth, and it will also enhance the agriculture research work and productivity with minimum input cost.

Dear; youth are the our main target beneficiaries to deliver those smart climatic techniques. They will get more benefit from this project. Thanks for suggestion.
I strongly support your proposal. If there is anything likely to bring change in Nepal, that is ‘the youth-force’.
We should promote ideas that drive youth to the right direction. So, great job for this initiative. I think, the next level of our focus after these basic educational training should be incentive-based involvement of youth in agriculture production and marketing.
you are true, in all over the world food is the basic requirement and this will be good for youth to adapt it as business.
It will defiantly work out for youth progress and development.
My interest is educating youth about healthy crop production systems, and how can we stop the haphazard use of chemical pesticides in our crops, what are the legal and moral obligations that growers should have when they supply fresh produce to the market.
Thanks for your wonderful sharing of information. Yes, we are also growing from same level. We used to share based on our knowledge and experience by thinking, it might be good for beginners.

the future is here and now!!! Thanks for your support, time and understanding.
Thanks adnan for realizing the need to reach out to smallholder farmers out there,The Mechanized weeder discovery could only be a reality with your support and believe.
Thank you for your comment and courage for us to work in agro entrepreneurship. We will try to do our best collectively. and i feel really blessed for every opportunities
Super innovation, this will certainly reduce the time spent on old methods, better health for farmers and make farming more attractive to the youth. I am also interest to visit your farm.
Thank you so much for your wishes, This is a platform for young blood to learn a lot within a short span of time…its a great initiation.
This is a very good and new innovation in agriculture; knowing Mechanization would attract youth to Agriculture and also generate revenue.
I have started this project three years back and now looking for its replication and improvement for others particularly climate vulnerable women and youth groups.
Interesting ,Never heard of this that some young researcher working directly with community youth. This will make farming more lucubrating and attractive and encourage more youth participation in agriculture.
Thank you so much dr abida.
We are encouraged by our experience of farm to farm mentoring program, and now we are trying to conduct onsite the climate
Nice and brilliant innovation, this will encourage youths to go into Agriculture with youth but how many people will gain employment through this project of yours? how much cost is required for 1 acre.
for one acre $5000 is required initially. Thank you so much for your compliments and suggestion with best wishes.
We will share our progress with you 🙂
A very nice approach to promote youth in agrienterpreneruship. All the best Adnan Arshad. It’s thoughtful and detailed. Keep it up..
We would like to work together with you., Thank you so much for your appreciation 🙂
Thank you so much for your comment.
The one thing that discourages youth from practicing agriculture is finally being addressed. This is very interesting. Good job. however, I believe this should be cost effective when compared to the manual labor?
yes it is very cost effective Agreeing with you, we have already started a pilot model climate smart farm in three regions. Thanks for your wonderful sharing of information.
Very interesting initiative, i want to know how well this would work for Pakistani youth farmers and how profitable it would be to practice it as a business as you depict in your work. Nice work!!!
Thanks for your wonderful sharing of information. Yes, we are also growing from same level. We used to share based on our knowledge and experience by thinking, it might be good for beginners.
Where is your model farm and how can I visit it? Is it possible for us to visit with my class for their exposure?
you are true, in all over the world food is the basic requirement and this will be good for youth to adapt it as business.
It will defiantly work out for youth progress and development.
A clear and precise write up to unlock the climate vulnerable potential of Agriculture, Mechanization is definitely the way forward for youth.
Dear; youth are the our main target beneficiaries to deliver those smart climatic techniques. They will get more benefit from this project. Thanks for suggestion.
Dear Adnan; Another very important point I would like to bring with the audience is the importance of gender equality. Females are very talented and hence they should be encouraged to contribute too whichever way they can. Support of Husband and In-laws becomes a deciding factor of her contribution after marriage. So we all must work in cooperation as big things can happen with a strong team.
I absolutely agree with you and compliment you for doing the right thing in Pakistani context.
Thanks for suggestion. They will get more benefit from this projects. My all the farm operations are climate adaptive and seed, fruits and crops are well adaptive to it. To minimize other extreme events I am practicing resistant varieties seed as well.
I remember when I first started working at farm and I have understood in detail its complexities and solutions. My aim to write the blog was to familiarize the audience particularly youth and women farmers about our own seeds as these are neglected by all the government policies. I have also learnt it from Durban Kitchen Garden Society improve organic vegetable farming across Pakistan For sure.
its indeed a very good initiative you have chosen. The development of climate resilient agriculture including the youth is the need of the hour. Any attempt for the conservation or improvement of indigenous cattle which is climate resilient is very welcome.
You are right. It will be more economical and helpful for young people; those wanted to start it.
https://blog.gfar.net/category/gcard3/
All the best to you in your dream project. Educated people like you are badly needed by our reagion to develop the largely traditional agricultural sector. Wish you a great success.
yes it will bring more youth in agriculture business for batter livelihoods, Thanks for your technical suggestion, I will practice it at our model farm
Great thought and work by you. I agree with you that any business particularly agri related should take into account the local conditions. I am sure your efforts will make a meaningful contribution towards optimizing the use of resources to cope climate change in Pakistan.
I will practice it at our model farm and experiment it to build more resilient in crops and fruit plants against climate change events. It will give attractive employment to rural youth, and it will also enhance the agriculture research work and productivity with minimum input cost.
From an atmosphere equity point of view, tending to the underlying drivers of the atmosphere emergency likewise requires handling social disparities and annihilating types of mistreatment that developments can likewise imitate, including sexual orientation imbalances.
Got all these insights after spending five years in smart agriculture farming and visiting majority of farms in Pakistan. However I am happy to realize it quickly and being able to plan it all.
Great work for engaging ladies ranchers and youth to deal with their own seed and homestead endeavors empowers them to wind up chiefs in the group.
Youth especially the educated youth will understand my concerns and I am sure will led things in right direction. thanks for your support for reduce climate change.

Such a great idea. I believe this is what should be done in Kenyan farms. A brilliant proposal from a young Pakistani researcher.
Many thanks for giving such an important information and contact. Yes I have plans to visit Gujarat to get good seeds and I will now definitely visit University. I appreciate you took time to read the blog and for giving very crucial inputs.
Are your family members, friends and youth from communities involve in business?
Hi Ad, Wonderful!! A great success you are going to achieve in climate change and agriclture field. Our country requires such intellectuals who can help us develop and providing opportunity of growth without effecting our environment as we have already seen the carbon emissions effect in the recent Paris summit, on whole world. I think it will also indirectly help efficient utilization of natural resources. Good Luck..👍👍
Thanks for giving me such a positivity. Yes Climate Resilient agriculture has become very important work if we are to work in the direction of Sustainable Agriculture.
In this scenario it becomes equally important to develop our strong, climate resilient crops which can perform well in lesser resources proving to be beneficial for small farmers too.
Thankyou once again
Thats great appreciable effort and work done by you this is the thing need youngster develop future and you are promoting climate smart farming it is very important you are sharing your knowledge and experience and this is right time to promoting this type of ideas and this type of business opportunities because our government also supported through start up and in future broad opportunities we are very impressed with your business and ideas.
Yes number of educated people in agriculture is less however there is being an increase in the involvement of youth in agriculture as I can see especially on platforms such as this one. It is always great to see youth seriously involved in different areas of agriculture across globe. I am sure there will be increased involvement of youth in timed to come and such activities as this one to give seed fund to entrepreneurs will keep them motivated and connected.
Ad – this is brilliant, thought provoking work and blog. It’s great to see such passion in what you do! Keep up the great work and look forward to reading more great initiatives blogs from you for youth.
Thanks for your appreciation Sadia. Yes by considering our local environment before choosing the right crops and right seeds as it will lead to optimal use of our resources and prove viable for farmers also. This would be beneficial for environment as well as for economical well being of society , country, youth and globe.
I appreciate your zeal and passion towards climate and agriculture sector. Your blog addresses a very important issue. These days when most of the organised food farms are following the trend of keeping the agriculture conditions and more sustainable.Wishing you all the best.
Thanks a lot for going through the blog and giving your best wishes. Yes definitely the work on Indigenous practices is in the direction to efficiently use our resources making it important work in the direction of Sustainable Agriculture.
great article as you always make the best out of odds.. your hard work and intellect can clearly be seen in your projects .you’ve very tactfully addressed serious ground level issues like insurance, poverty, stress issues in agriculture. Great work. All the very best
Thanks a lot bhai for always appreciating our efforts. I am sure with blessings of you all we will always work in right path. Yes we will make best use of the opportunities to promote and develop Indigenous seeds and tillage practices..

Dear Imran brother many thanks for your appreciation and motivation. I am sure under your guidance I will learn a lot more.
Excellent research work and knowledge sharing !
Keep it up…
Many many thanks for your comment. Appreciation from people such as you make us even more determined to work sincerely in farming and other such agriculture related activities.
Its all very useful for newly farmers who want to do this work in proper way. Your suggestions, ideas n efforts are appreciable. I am also interested in doing this work but not having proper knowledge and other issues, couldn’t.
As mentioned by you that by developing own micro-climatic practices we will also address issues such as droughts stress, poverty. Developing plans and putting emphasis on them would imply we are minimizing number of stressed and disease in crops, creating much more heather domestic seed by growing them properly and hence creating viable source of income for small farmers too.
My last question but not the least is that why this techniques has been neglected in Pakistan besides our country is known as agricultural based all over the world. Please go through these questions and views. Thanks Adnan and all the best for your work.
It is true pakistan is under threat by climatic change and are high yielded and equally true that farmers are not able to maintain them well. The reason is they need too much care and hence becomes very costly for a farmer to take yield from them. The main reason is under hot weather they easily come into stress. Unless comfortable air cooled arrangements along with much higher nutrition requirements are fulfilled these crops just for not perform.
Great work adnan !! Very interesting information about climate. keep up the good work. You will surely get great success. All the very best !!
thankyou for appreciating our work always. Please visit our Model Farm to see new developments.
Love your spirit in taking and Inspiring others to take path and employ methods which questions the typical mindset and culture. All the best for your new venture. The youth today must learn to respect smart climate farming because the way you guys doing it,it looks like a promising venture. Good going adnan we are with you. 👍👏👏🙏
This model farm would definitely encourage the youth who are looking for opportunities in agriculture and need some guidance and hand holding. I wish that your proposal would get support at #GCARD3 and the youth in Pakistan would get benefited. It will give attractive employment to rural youth, and it will also enhance the agriculture research work and productivity with minimum input cost.

I have seen your farming settlement one time But in future I would like to use your suggestions n Ideas for food production work.
It is really very much encouraging to see young professional giving the direction to the Climate Smart Farming, I certainly agree with you that there is a need to develop indigenous seeds whether it is grape and citrus. These are certainly neglected crops and very little has been done to improve the food potential.
Yes you right, climate smart technologies are experimented by the researcher at research station but this is the first time that I disseminated it to the rural farming communities.
More than 350 youth has been trained by the our farm team about more than 50 youth has started their own farm at different location in Pakistan. We also requesting for funds to build our capacities to install updated weather forecasting system at farm.
My self Sajid from Peshawar I appreciate for all smart farming and business persons. They are very excellent work for food industry. They are provide fresh food as well as free of chemicals. good <(")

Farmers do say that they are difficult to manage but still just on the basis of their yields(which is subject to condition that good expenditure will be incurred on their housing, food) they are keeping these crops. This is not sustainable agriculture and I really want to get it corrected so the best I can do is to take the lead because only then it is going to be easy to explain to others too.
I completely agree with you adnan to what you have said about changing climate …my personal experience is the same but i have not income.. I wish you luck for your new project.
Hope this will help all the youth framers.
Happy to see you best wishes. Its long time since you visited farm. Have a look at developments that are taking place. I am very positive that many good things will take place in Agriculture Sector in time to come.I am sure involvement of educated youth can bring tremendous change in perception of society towards it.

https://blog.gfar.net/category/gcard3/
yes it will bring more youth in agriculture business for batter livelihoods.
These days when most of the organised model farms are following the trend of keeping the agriculture from imported gene pool, it’s time to step back and re-look at the alternatives which are better suited to rainfed conditions and more sustainable.
Thanks for suggestion.
My all the farm operations are climate adaptive and seed, fruits and crops are well adaptive to it. To minimize other extreme events I am practicing resistant varieties seed as well.

Thank you so much for your compliments and best wishes.
he Climate Asia Report found that compared with the other countries in this study, Pakistanis feel most strongly that these changes are having a high level of impact on their lives now (there were around 4,000 respondents to the survey in Pakistan).
Very well written and very true along-with sustainability it is equally important that we preserve our own breeds too. As our are sharply declining it is important that we take steps in time to address this.
i am very much interested in this great task.Highly appreciated as an undergraduate of Forestry and Environmental Science.Keep it up
Thanks a lot for your blessings and best wishes.
I will put in my efforts to the best in this direction .
just want to share that i had grown mung bean crop in the area where you are practicing now and also at NARC. Due to changing in climatic episodes i analysed the weather forecast and planned to sow crops on at different time intervals rather than conventional time of sowing. That helped me a lot in getting maximum yield due appropriate precipitation at critical time period. So i also advised you to do that for your vegetable plot.
Thanks for the support and believe, sincerely modern technology is the way forward to an attractive farming especially for youth involvements. You are right dear, these type of suggestion and information are the best source for us to improve our model farm for further developments. Thanks
effort on machinery demonstration on field and awareness through mass media could assure the rapid mechanization in Pakistan.
It gives me immense happiness to keep myself involved for the betterment of farmers/.,
Under climatic change scenario follow IPCC guidelines to sequester more carbon from the atmosphere under UN REDD program or CDM. For this you can consult Inspector General of Forest Ministry of Climate Change. Make assessment of Carbon stocks with third party and earn more money by selling carbon credits. I really appreciate your efforts.
We also requesting for funds to build our capacities to install updated weather forecasting system at farm. It is really a great initiative idea which will help in boosting up the scopes of agribusiness. Thanks for your input on our smart work.

Well Done bro, you are a role model for youth.
Nice work dear Adnan keep it up its a good initiative
Agri-entrepreneurship is what Pakistani currently need to increase productivity and raise the living standard of country. This is a very good initiative which will help many farmers and people involved in agribusiness.
Vegetables are of very short duration crops and succulent so there are more chances of diseases and insect and pest attack so how are copping these issues by organic means?
hank you for your appreciation and understanding , it might be good for beginners.
So, ideas like this can be of great significance to motivate youths and build their confidence level. Really glad that somebody took this initiative. All the very best.
Thank you so much for your comment. Agreeing with you, we have already started a pilot model climate smart farm in three regions. Thanks for your wonderful sharing of information,
Nice work Mr.Adnan keep it up its a good initiative
Thank you so much for your compliments and suggestion with best wishes.

Thank you for your compliments!We would like to work together with you., T
Great effort. Being a part as mentees in the first session, i know how much this program is fruitful to the participants. all the best
Time has come to work towards our National Mission of adopting Climate Resilient Agriculture practices.
This is a very good initiative which will help many farmers and people involved in agribusiness.
Thankyou for appreciating the efforts. Motivation from people from diiferent corners of the world and from different sectors keeps us going.
A
we need to embrace our little beginning,belief in our initiatives then we can move from developing country to a developed country especially in the agricultural business.
also I am happy to see great work done by youth in Agriculture and I am very confident that youth will with its intelligence, know how take things in right and sustainable direction.
Fantabolous Project. Doing great and improving status of your people
Such efforts should be encouraged. Thankful everyone for being so supportive to her work.
Dear Adnan it shows your effort for well being of your people.
Thank you so much. We are encouraged by our experience of farm to farm mentoring program, and now we are trying to conduct onsite the climate change science for youth involvement.
Thank you so much for your compliments and suggestion……………………………………………….
Wow. Definitely a great initiative to promote youth to youth empowerment by networking and information sharing through online and offline meetings and events. A collective effort that is of the youth, for the youth, and by the youth!.
ONE CROP, TWO WAYS, MULTIPLE BENEFITS
-NITROGEN FIXATION is one of the best examples of cooperation in nature. Soil microbes – naturally occurring bacteria in the soil –
A safe, clean and child-friendly physical environment has emerged as cardinal for promoting holistic quality education that enables all children to achieve academic, moral and psychological excellence.
i appreciate your efforts for Environmental Friendly Innovations which is necessary for improvement in crops and to save the nature.
In Pakistan, there is comparatively less awareness towards climate change so we need people which promote awareness and knowledge of nature in this country. i really appreciate your efforts in this sector.
Due to changing in climatic episodes i analysed the weather forecast and planned to sow crops on at different time intervals rather than conventional time of sowing.
That helped me a lot in getting maximum yield due appropriate precipitation at critical time period. So i also advised you to do that for your vegetable plot.
a wonderful work to cope climate change and it is the need based things which we urgently needed in Pakistan.so i have a question that, are you creating awareness among youngsters to adopt agriculture as their entrepreneurship?
This is a good role model for other young entrepreneur to adopt it as profession. Is there any crop modeling skill tool are you applying at farm to deal with extreme climatic events?
You have done a remarkable work in rainfed agriculture i found this project very useful and fruitful for the furture development of Rainfed Agriculture.
I wish you a very good luck for your future 🙂
Good thinking and initiative Adnan Mechanization can attract the youths who are in abroad and the best alternative to reduce human hunger. Simultaneous effort on machinery demonstration on field and awareness through mass media could assure the rapid mechanization in Pakistan.
Well Done Arshad, I am proud of you being a Pakistani you are really struggling hard in that environmental conditions. Keep it Up. I would like to give more suggestion with respect to drought conditions of prolong dry season in the area during April to JUne each year.Try to apply bio char amendments in the soil. Make bio-char from indigenous species of the area and try it . I am hopeful it will support growth as well as retain soil moisture.
NIce work ..Even we are trying to same thing. I would like to know know list of plant species that you found to be adaptive in drought or very less water.
For this you can consult Inspector General of Forest Ministry of Climate Change. Make assessment of Carbon stocks with third party and earn more money by selling carbon credits. I really appreciate your efforts. Pakistan need Individual like you to come up to the expectations of the Nation.
You arr doing very good job . I am proud of you being a Pakistani you are really struggling hard in that environmental conditions. Keep it Up. I would like to give more suggestion with respect to drought conditions of prolong dry season in the area during April to JUne each year.
hi Adnan, you are very active environmentalist. I ma proud of you. you have much experience in agriculture and climate change and performed well in different applied projects. Now a days its a big problem for Pakistan that facing problem of water loss not only in agriculture but also in different domestic ways. I really appreciate your efforts.
well done my boy, Adnan Arshad. I have always admired your work. This is a great step at this level. I wish you all the success in your endeavors. It will not only sharp your skills but also improve the knowledge of the local community.
Wow. This is really impressive to save rainwater. With a few more like you and other young agriculturist, I know the economy will turn around for the better.
here i have very important suggestion for you Adnan; Moreover, Under climatic change scenario follow IPCC guidelines to sequester more carbon from the atmosphere under UN REDD program or CDM. For this you can consult Inspector General of Forest Ministry of Climate Change.
You can join in the publicity of improved mechanization in agriculture knowing this would attract more youth to agribusiness. Thanks for the motivation.
A very good idea with the use of improved technology which will help in improving agriculture from the use of using cutlasses and hoes.
thats the word, IMPROVEMENT! without this, agriculture is going no where.
Good development done by the young agriculturist in Pakistan, really impressed from him. I want to share with you some findings of IPCC #5AR EG-3 via email. I have sent you if you got it let me know. I have shared some new techniques developed by us at our research station.
Brilliant idea that will increase food security and nutrition in our country and even create job opportunities for the youth and women once the idea is sold out to many.
This is indeed a very good initiative that can attract more youth to farming. Until we integrate modern technology to our farming system in rain-fed Pakistan youth will find it difficult to participate. I strongly support your proposal.
Your idea is great! It is environment friendly as it will increase the production of solarium cetacean.
Well done. Hope we will achieve it sustainability for food.
Wow…What a great initiative. Yes it is very true implementing theory to practice not only gives much more satisfaction but also proves to be tremendously helpful for Society and Country. Having good Agriculture Academics background and at the same time pursuing farming is great combination.
This is a nice project that if well facilitated can have huge impact on the society as well as individual households. The benefits associated with the one hen project are immense. It has a simple ideology and can be replicated.
First of all I would like to say thank you so much to this 4 Agroecólogos for loving what they do and for sharing their awesome Eco-Sustainability friendly project.

Great job there. So so interested in keeping up with your project.
Thanks for realizing the need to reach out to smallholder farmers out there,
Super innovation, this will certainly reduce the time spent on weeding, better health for farmers and make farming more attractive to the youth.
This is a good development that is capable of attracting youths to agriculture especially when the youths know that the drudgery associated with traditional agriculture is reduced/eliminated. More grease to your elbow!
incredible. No more stressing oneself with cutlasses and hoes that will leave peels in your hands. Well done.
Yes, We now have an attractive agriculture.
the future is here and now!!! Thanks for your support, time and understanding.
This is a very good and new innovation in agriculture; knowing Mechanization would attract youth to Agriculture and also generate revenue.
This is really an innovative approach to transform the face of agriculture among youths.
This will encourage youth to go into Agriculture
The usage of modern technology in agriculture is the best way for mind set change among youths also it increases yield output and reduces stress.
Good initiative. I like the fact that anyone either a man or woman can operate the machine…thumps up!
This is a very effective and efficient way of doing agriculture. It would encourage youths to go back to the land.
This will definitely make more youths and women attracted into agriculture thereby reducing the problem of unemployment. Fantastic initiative!
Nice idea.
With mechanization farming cool.
This is an impressive innovation that will in no doubt impact positively on mechanized Agriculture and improve revenue generation.
Nice concept ! all the best!

This is a very innovative idea keep working on it never lose hope.
The nutrients which are meat contain are following: Proteins The nutritional value of meat is essentially related to the content of high quality protein. High quality proteins are characterized by the content of essential amino acids which cannot be synthesized by our body but must be supplied through our food. In this respect the food
Fish waste is a rich source of proteins, fats and minerals. Fish protein hydrolysate is produced by enzymatic treatment of fish waste. Protein hydrolysate can be used to prevent the protein degradation of fish during freezing.
What a nice and excellent idea piece of idea. Good job, it will really go a long way in helping the youth of this great nation. Thumbs up.
This project is perfect it will improve environment management by reducing amount of chemicals used as fertilizers and increasing use of organic ones.

This is the best way to fight unemployment and underemloyment.
You guys should appear on Seeds of gold…
Being a County officer, you team are making me proud of my County.
I have a small area at my urban place. N hope this will increase my yield per unit area?
Nice proposal… Will pay you a visit so that we can share ideas.
By doing this, you are transforming agriculture which is good.
Would like to follow you up… Do you have an active face book account?
This technology is impossible to be equal with any other farming method..
This is a nice move focusing the MDG’s… Put more efforts n u will find yourself safe.
If all the youths would be this ambitious, our Nation would be safe…. Keep it upWith this our nutrition and health will improve. guys make it happen..Glad to see that u know realize that it has come to a time for youths to engage in agriculture..
There Is money in tomatoes n horticulture value chain . Nice venture
Thanks for re-awakening the citizenry on the importance of agriculture in the growth and development of the economy.
you are participating in returning agriculture in it’s rightful place..
I’m proud of you seeing you embark on agriculture as a career and practice..
After reading the article, it is noteworthy to say that the face of agriculture is transforming.
Is there any other way I can do this without the use of drips?
I’m so motivated to undertake agriculture as a career.
This is a proof there are endless benefits in horticultural practice.
This yield is too high…. I’m gonna try this.
Agri-entrepreneurship seems to be a prestigious venture… Need to focus my interest there.
If youths engage in agriculture, they will help raise professional man power like you are doing Beaty.
The pride of a Farmer is during harvest… The photos potray good produce… Walk with all the courage.,
Success does not automatically qualify for riches. It means that you have achieved what you set out to achieve.
great innovations there. may the people be touched and listen for their own good.
just like the bible teaches us wise counsel, you have chosen to teach the members of community ways of getting out of poverty.
Nothing can stop a man with the right mental attitude from achieving his goal, while nothing on earth can help a man with the wrong attitude. Your attitude will determine the amount of effort you will put in achieving success.
Take time to develop your brand because it is it that will determine how high above you go
I think i would love to see your idea realized so that i could possibly go back to rearing chicken at a scale that i used to enjoy.
This a good proposal indeed it will directly provide job opportunities to the growing number of unemployed young people in our area.
make sure you do not start a nice project like this and then close it down all over a sudden.
Hi,am very much obliged with your products,I would like to know if I do start the project how can I market the chicken if I were to rear them. Hope to hear from you,Thank you.
wow! graduates doing a simple project in the village when instead they should be in town doing some white collar job,,this will take you places..
there is no doubt that you will go places. keep it up
What a brilliant idea, this will work. Wishing you all the best..
How fascinating. Young people ought to be encouraged to do this more.

we are already members of Karantini women group.your trainings have been instrumental to us.

This is a very good initiative, we need more people like you out here. Keep up the good work and good luck.
Nothing short of amazing. You are an inspiration
Children will resonate well with the project since it is attributed to them
The one hen project requires small space hence it is not highly intensive..
Quite encouraging, I must say this is one of the greatest forms of innovation and creativity. thumbs up.
Insist on following the legal procedure available to avoid litigation.
I could not agree more…We need to learn to empower ourselves and not wait
Humble beginnings from a hen can make one own a cow, goat… big businesses etc
great work. So inspiring to see the impact on the women. Women are usually overlooked. You empower a woman you empower the whole household. Sustainable capacity building.
lets do it guys its our era to save our economy
requires a resident doctor who should be on call to attend to farmers needs
It would also be good that as you replicate your work in other areas, you encourage the men and women you work with to take a step towards owning then major businesses
Thumbs up man such an inspiring story. Wishing u all the best…

we can also discuss how to support the project , we also have a fish farm with good water for the vegetables near the river,water from the fish ponds is good for farmers growing vegetables.
It needs to attract more number of young and adult ones in the sector. It operates for stage I, but seeks for more support to other stages. Yes, it is great you have farmland.
It is smart and strategic towards addressing the acute need of youth.
youth in pakistan, unemployment in particular. Whoever with passion to support would select this project for financing.
we need to use the sector as a way of introducing solution to youth unemployment in our country others near.
Is a fantastic idea, it is realistic and viable, wish this project to get total support from different angle, green revolution is possible I came to realize,
Green revolution needs to happen in our country
Nice idea it is economically viable
Yaa, young people need to involve now and see the sector very impressive
Yaap, things want to happen in the sector
Well well done brother Malembo. You inspiring us youth who just steat in streets wandering around while there are valuable resource
like land which can make us rich financially and even healthy.. God bless you brother for the competition.
Time is now for youth to wake up and utilize resources effectively esp land and technology
congratulation for your plan..you hav changed dream.into reality. best success bro
best plan for young people job creation. Much backups are required..
Surely, when governments decide to involve young people in agri sector.. employment and food security can be solved.
Surely, when governments decide to involve young people in agri sector.. employment and food security can be solved.
see valuable on this idea. thus,it will solve most of economic problem such as unemployment.
Last but not least,this idea is not only for rain-fed but for developing country as well as world.
As it seems youth unemployment is a big problem in Pakistan and world at large.. we need to put hands together in the initiative.
Awesome “big ideal bro ull change the globe through this” congrats.
how solar pumps works on that project????
Instead of using oil for operating water pump, the solar pump works to replace use of oil to operate water pump during irrigation?
Solar pump is applied instead of using oil for operating water pump. Solar panel converts sunlight’s to electrical forms that later help water pump to pull water from the river or well thus the project will reduce oil operating cost..
Congrats brother, i like your project, i think it may change the globe”.
Beautiful one…I was wondering if we could apply the respective idea in rainfed though its a dry area but still initiatives mentioned would make it more possible. Waiting for implementation.
Always you have positive idea, congrats brother….
well done adnan, you have a good idea and i think we can share your idea in-order to improve our agriculture sector.
How the project going to connect youth and these financial institutions??
What are strategies still not exactly got the point over the line, I have forgotten to ask but I found is a very valuable question to add up the knowledge to I first and then to the rest who are highly interested to your fantabolus idea
It is a good project, but my concern is how to connect the youth to financial institutions, can you give more breakdown.
Through this initiative, legal youth and other peasant groups will be formed with intention of connecting or allocating them to financial institutions like as outlined above for micro loans furthermore we have agri bank that also will be utilized in the initiative..
I think your project may help to change agri-sector…well done ad
ooh it’s good idea bro i support it our youth will get self employment and avoid interdependence from big politicians and idlers in streets.
Can we share your idea?,because i’m interested with it brother….nice idea
I appriciate your idea broo….congrates mohamed for your good idea
Its may change or save the problem of unemployment in our societies, nice brother..

Where are you adnan?, i need to share your idea with you because its so good project..
have you started phase one: awareness provision on the challenges and opportunities in agricultural sector..here we seek for support to be ready for phase two..see my email above for more talks.
I have a space can we share your idea?…
i accept that we can share the idea to make girls and boys participate in farming sector..cheers!
A very good project, applicable and helpful for global youth.
job opportunities will start from there when we utilize our resource effectively
Good bussnes and it may helps to reduce the problem of unemployment facing in our societies
youth will be helped through provision of training knowledge that will make them able to involve in the agricultural sector by farming, processing agri outputs,
marketing and in other ways introducing their agri venture then use the concept of ict i agri sector as you have ready from the proposal above
For sure employment is no longer a problem if that idea get into reality, all the best comrade
here we need to rise interest for youth like agricultural sector since it wil give employment through farming, processing or marketing.

yas project connected to ICT it is expected to use mobile phones, networked computers, Televisions, Newspapers, articles and other related to provide essential information on agricultural sector like availability of improved seeds, marketing details on product, prices, weather and others.
See how we can be together in implementation, for sure I understood this idea more than ever.

I want to meet you face to face, give me the direction, this idea is above normal
Thank for this good project,
knowing the advantages of drip irrigation, this has to be taken into good consideration.
What i propose is that together we should look how to propose it to financial institution in other for financial aid
Well I like the idea it is really suitable for Pakistani it depends on rain-fed for its products hence it can work both in summer and winter.
Well I like the idea it is really suitable for Tanzania since it depends on rainfed for its products hence it can work both in summer and winter.

Good work.Keep it up..!!
goood effort you are doing in the water
awesome work dude..keep it up
awesome..may you succeed to achieve your goals..
This is indeed a very good initiative that can attract more youth to farming. Until we integrate modern technology to our farming system in Africa youth will find it difficult to participate. I strongly support your proposal.
you are doing a remarkable work in the water shortage region of Pakistan along with earning source. This is a good role model for other young entrepreneur to adopt it as profession. I strongly recommend and support you proposal.
