President Dr. Arif Alvi has emphasized on adoption of modern agricultural technologies and effective decision-making to cope with the challenge of global warming. Addressing Regional Dialogue 2024 on 'Climate Crisis: Shaping South Asia's Resilience' organized by the Institute of Regional Studies in Islamabad today, he said Pakistan is rich in water, renewable energy potential and other resources but it direly needed a driving force to implement the decisions and make it compete with the world. He said Pakistan has around 150 million acre-feet of water which was sufficient to meet its needs if modern agriculture techniques like spray and drip irrigation were adopted and flood irrigation was done away with. Emphasizing the implementation of national water policy and other relevant legislation, he said a pricing mechanism could also lead to water conservation. Source: Radio Pakistan
