We have been hearing about how Pakistan is an agricultural country and most of our economy depends on agricultural output. The same can be said about the rural population which accounts for nearly all of the agricultural production and about 63 percent of the whole population.
Pakistan is blessed to have 40% arable (plough-able) land. Most of the countries on the world map do not have that percentage of land for their agricultural growth. Though agricultural growth is not a prerequisite for a prosperous economy, yet, it can provide self-sufficient food and raw material for many industrial products like textile and the industrial growth of any country is directly dependent upon agriculture. Yes, industrial growth can impact the economic outlook of the country provided the raw material is available in abundance. The rest of the economic projection can only be achieved through introducing fourth generation technologies based on internet communication systems.
