Farm Project

Posted by ather ali at April 10. 2008

Greetings,


I am currently in the United States and will be heading to Pakistan this summer to develop approximately 25 acres of agricultural land that I own, located in the Punjab region.  My aim is to undertake a small-scale farming project, and I have a few general objectives:


 


1) allocate some of the acreage to cultivate a lucrative, alternative crop for export


 


2) additional allocation of land for production of wheat or similar staple crop to be provided free to the local population and/or to others residing non-locally, when logistically feasible


 


3) re-structure existing farming model to counteract feudal-style system currently in place


 


As agribusiness is something new to me, I think it would be great if one or a few individuals would be interested in joining me in this project.  I'm definitely open to alternative ideas, but essentially, I want to utilize my land to create something that's relatively profitable and simultaneously engaged in food production/distribution to the needy.


 


You can email me at atherxali@gmail.com.


 


Thanks,


 


Dr. Ather Ali
