HYDERABAD: A farmer Muhammad Zaman is among four lucky ones who have received 1,000 guava fruit saplings for planting at their family land.
His family already has a few mango orchards standing at a small water stream nearby, and now with the addition of the new guava garden, neighbouring farmers have started dropping by to take a look at the growing plants.
Falling crop productivity has forced farmers to hunt for alternative livelihoods. So, if Zaman’s guava garden succeeds, growers would have a chance at earning a livelihood.
Zaman belongs to village Sono Khan Jamali, located near Talhar town of Badin district, which is situated at the tail end of the canal irrigation system. The area faces severe water scarcity.
