Pilot program in Pakistan’s Sindh province is helping farmers combat climate change and improve yields. The program uses internet-connected sensors and satellite imagery to provide real-time data on soil moisture, weather, and nutrients. This allows farmers to make informed decisions about water use, seeds, fertilizers, and pesticides.

One farmer, Shah Nawaz Behan, has seen a 27% increase in his cotton yield while using half the amount of water and reducing fertilizer and pesticide costs by a third. Precision agriculture not only benefits farmers but also combats climate change. By optimizing water use and reducing reliance on pesticides, this technology helps conserve resources and reduce greenhouse gas emissions.

Sindh province is particularly susceptible to climate change, having suffered devastating floods in 2022. Precision agriculture helps farmers adapt to unpredictable weather patterns and mitigate drought effects, ensuring food security in a changing climate.

The success of this pilot program is inspiring other farmers to adopt precision agriculture. With this technology, farmers can become more resilient in the face of climate change and ensure a more sustainable future for agriculture in Pakistan.

CWPK Legacy
Launched in 1967 internationally, ComputerWorld is the oldest tech magazine/media property in the world. In Pakistan, ComputerWorld was launched in 1995. Initially providing news to IT executives only, once CIO Pakistan, its sister brand from the same family, was launched and took over the enterprise reporting domain in Pakistan, CWPK has emerged as a holistic technology media platform reporting everything tech in the country. It remains the oldest continuous IT publishing brand in the country and in 2025 is set to turn 30 years old, which will be its biggest benchmark and a legacy it hopes to continue for years to come. CWPK is part of the SPIN/IDG Wakhan media umbrella.
