Pakistan is predominantly an agricultural country. However, since its independence in 1947, emphasis has been on irrigated agriculture, while the dry land/arid agriculture remained neglected. With rapid increase in population, the irrigated areas failed to provide food requirements and it became imperative to find out ways to make use of the huge part of cultivable land in the rain fed region.
