The Lok Sanjh Forum brought together farmers, researchers, policymakers, and development practitioners to discuss innovative pathways for transforming agriculture in the Pothohar region. The session highlighted the Lok Sanjh Model Village Approach, which emphasizes sustainable water resource management, promotion of high-value crops, and the use of nature-based farm fencing to enhance productivity while conserving the environment.

Speakers, including Dr. Shahid Zia, Malik Nasir, and experts from PIDE University, shared insights on strengthening farmer support systems, improving market linkages, and building climate resilience in dryland farming communities. The discussion underscored the importance of collaborative action and community engagement in driving agricultural innovation and ensuring sustainable livelihoods for Pothohar’s farming families.
