The World Bank has reaffirmed its commitment to ushering in a sustainable agricultural revolution in Punjab through collaboration with the Punjab government.
A delegation from the World Bank's Review Mission visited Multan on Wednesday. According to official sources, the primary objective of the visit was to inspect the modern drip and solar systems strategically deployed throughout the region.
In the five-year project, out of a total of Rs68 billion, the World Bank was offering Rs45 billion. The project is set to have a profound impact on the agricultural landscape of the region.
It is poised to mitigate the effects of climate change, ushering in modern irrigation systems, creating an environment for private sector investments and facilitating the growth of profitable agriculture.
