Dated: 20-08-2020 _________________ Deponent Sarah Amir ABSTRACT With the dawn of 21st century, the world has witnessed the distressingly increasing effects of climate change on almost all sectors of society manifested by rising temperature, melting glaciers, intruding seas, erratic rainfall, frequent floods, cyclones and intermittent droughts. Both the global and national security paradigms are at great risk due to devastating impacts of climate-induced anomalies, if required measures to mitigate and adapt to such changes would not be taken both by developed and developing countries. Due to poor resource-base, technical and financial constraints, inadequate adaptive capacity and above all heavy reliance on climate-sensitive sector like agriculture in South Asia, makes it the most vulnerable region. Therefore, it is incumbent to carry out research on climate change perception, its bearings on human health, crops and livestock productivities, vulnerability assessments and adaptation of the rain-fed rural communities in response to climatic variabilities in countries like Pakistan, where sizeable population is reliant on agriculture for their bread and butter. Although there are constraints like availability of data, limited literature on perception, vulnerability assessment and response to climatic variabilities in Pakistan, but still it is of great importance to conduct such studies. Similarly, the assessment of capabilities for adaptation to those impacts for the agricultural sector, especially in rain-fed regions is not only a need of the hour but a very challenging research question as well. Therefore, this study was carried out with objectives; i) to get an insight of farmers’ cognizance to climate-related events; ii) mapping changes in land use land cover with historical perspective and to elucidate its causal factors; iii) assessment of the households’ vulnerability to climate-related events; and iv) to find out factors influencing farmers’ selection of farm and non-farm based adaptation strategies or measures in the face of climate change. This study focused on perception analysis of communities in rain-fed areas about climate change by exploring household social vulnerability, biophysical vulnerability and measures taken in a rain-fed district of Chakwal in Punjab, Pakistan. To comprehend the complexity, this study adopted an interdisciplinary approach and methodology by using specially designed survey instrument for data collection, GIS and Remote Sensing tools and statistical techniques for principal component and multivariate analyses. This study considered historical climate data (temperature and precipitation) of Chakwal District and focused on household survey of 475 respondents in the rain-fed rural zone (Barani) of Pakistan. The results indicated that 96% of farmers perceived climate change as reality and experienced climate-related hazards (drought, erratic rainfall, temperature rise, hailstorm, fog etc.) over the last twenty years or so. Such findings are quite comparable with scientific observations of climate data of the study area. For example, farmers reported uncertainty and decrease in farm productivities; animal diseases; human health impacts; changes in sowing times and dwindling water due to detected climatic hazards. In response, farmers have changed sowing dates of their crops, followed improved crop production practices and some invested in water ponds to irrigate their crops. Further, it was found that shortage of water, poverty and weak institutional set-up increased the household susceptibility to climatic threats. The study also assessed the social vulnerability of household by Principal Component Analysis using SPSS Version 21 and spatial vulnerability mapping of Chakwal District by GIS. The results showed that i tehsils Talagang and Lawa have high vulnerability, whereas Kallar Kahar has low- medium level vulnerability and Chakwal and Choa Saiden Shah have low level vulnerability to climate related hazards. The biophysical vulnerability assessment was also analyzed by mapping land cover dynamics in the study area using Landsat images (1985-2018) in Google Earth Engine. The findings of integrated vulnerability assessment revealed that rain-fed cropping area of the total land cover area is still the dominant land cover type (54%) and remains same for the last two decades depicting its vulnerability to climatic variabilities and reliance of rain-fed farm communities on agricultural activities for their livelihood. The determinants of adaptation strategies made by farmers toward climate-induced anomalies was analyzed using multivariate probit model. The results showed that rural communities particularly farmers perceived alterations in climate very well but could not adapt accordingly due to different resource impediments and lack of awareness and information. Therefore, adoption rate of various adaptation strategies was confined to low-costly measures or rather simple measures and generally could not include radical and innovative tools. It was further noted that various factors such as socio-economic parameters, agro-ecological factors, institutional support etc. influenced the choice of adaptation measures. On the basis of the results of this study, it is recommended that it is important to extend scientific, technical, financial and institutional support to farmers in rain-fed areas not only to improve agricultural production for ensuring food security but also to make their livelihoods resilient to climate change. Such support to farmers in rain-fed areas should include strategic interventions suggested to achieve UN sustainable development goal, SDG 2- “end hunger, achieve food security, improve nutrition and promote sustainable agriculture” and SDG 3 –“taking urgent actions to combat climate change and its impacts” in the National Sustainable Development Strategy, 2017 of Pakistan. ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS First and foremost, I want to thank my supervisor, Prof. Dr. Muhammad Irfan Khan for being my first mentor and advisor and providing me a place in his excellent research group, where I learned how good research is done. I appreciate all his contributions of time, ideas, and support to make

The project is aimed at to promote sustainable forest management in Pakistan’s western Himalayan temperate coniferous, subtropical broad leaved evergreen thorn (scrub) and riverine forest for biodiversity conservation, mitigation of climate change and securing of forest ecosystem service. This paper encompasses the study of socio-economic aspects of the salt range scrub forest landscape located in Chakwal and Jhelum Districts of the Punjab province, to develop a framework for sustainable management. The landscape represents an ecosystem that contributes largely to economic and welfare of the communities which depend, directly or indirectly on the exploitation of natural resources of this ecosystem. Hence, there is interrelationship between environment and socio- economic conditions prevailing in the area. They are affected by the natural environment with its various ecosystems which provide continues supply of goods and services. The stability of environment, sustainable forest management and welfare of communities are highly associated and correlated. The total area of landscape is 20,000 ha, out of which 7,859 ha is forested and owned by the state, and 6,672 ha in the outer landscape is private land, including cultivation (1,752 ha) and pastures and settlements, 5469 ha is communal land.

  • Final Report
    FINAL REPORT CRP 1.1: Dry Land Systems CRP Activity Title: Improving Water and Land Productivity in Rain fed Systems Using Community- based Water and Agronomic Management Approaches. Sub-Activity Title: Capacity building of women of farming community for value-addition to locally-produced fruits and vegetables 1 | P a g e Background Pakistan is an agriculture-based country where majority of the agricultural activities revolve around women, therefore the role of rural women cannot be underestimated or ignored in rural development. The value addition in the form of preservation and processing of agricultural produce has tremendous potential for providing employment and additional income to farm families in rural catchments. Important aspects for promotion of value addition of fruits and vegetables are lower income from sale of fresh commodities in the market, high post-harvest losses due to perishable nature, considerable potential to generate employment, diversify income and improve food security in Pakistan. Increasing production is one approach to improving farm incomes and food availability, but an additional strategy with considerable promise is to add value to agricultural produce. Improved post-harvest handling, processing and marketing achieves value added products and is perhaps the most viable means to reduce poverty and improve rural livelihoods. At initial level, value addition of locally-produced fruits and vegetables for livelihood can develop skills of the rural communities leading to commercialization in the long run as it requires proper certification. Many rural areas that are faced with a declining number of farm jobs consider the food processing sector as a source of potential income and employment growth.

PREFACE Soil erosion is called the 'creeping death' of the soil. It is a world-wide problem, but it is much more assertive in under­ developed countries where the modern discoveries in scientific know­ ledge have not been applied commensurate with their needs in agriculture. It works out its serious effects through this process : loss of surface soil, plant-food and sub-soil water, silting up of water channels, disruption of communications, reduction in productivity of land and ultimately lowering the already low standard of living of the peasantry. Soil erosion has affected vast areas of our fertile land, rendering them completely unfit for cultivation. In Rawalpindi Division alone about 5 lakh acres of productive land have become uncultivable while another 10 Jakh acres are seriously affected. The menace of soil erosion is fast spreading. 1t needs effective measures for combating it. It need hardly be emphasiseC: that soil is a basic national resource and its conservation is the prime necessity. For, without ita due care, we may not be left with enough land to raise food and commercial crops for our growing economy.
