Farmers in Pakistan are facing mounting challenges as the Kisan Ittehad, a key agricultural union, calls for urgent reforms to address growing pressures on the sector. President Khalid Mahmood Khokhar highlighted that high production costs and weak governance are increasingly burdening farmers, threatening their ability to sustain livelihoods. The union emphasized the need for policy changes to improve support for agricultural workers and ensure long-term stability.
The situation has sparked concern among agricultural communities, with many struggling to cover rising expenses while dealing with inconsistent government support. Khokhar warned that without immediate action, the sector could face further decline, impacting food security and rural economies. The call for reform comes amid broader discussions on economic stability and rural development in the country.
The Kisan Ittehad’s demands reflect growing frustration among farmers, who feel their voices are not adequately represented in national policy decisions. As the agricultural sector remains a cornerstone of Pakistan’s economy, the push for reform underscores the urgent need for systemic changes to protect the livelihoods of millions.
