Agriculture constitutes the largest sector of Pakistan’s economy. Despite a structural shift towards industrialization, the agriculture sector still has a great impact on our socio-economic setup. It accounts over for 21 percent of the GDP, absorbing 45 percent of the country’s total labour force. About 62 percent of the country’s population resides in rural areas, and is directly or indirectly dependent on agriculture for livelihood.

As part of its Global Conservation Programme, WWF aims to help make agricultural commodities like cotton and sugarcane cultivation part of a sustainable industry more
