  • Impact of Ground Water on Wheat Production in District Jhang, Punjab, Pakistan
    Sarhad J. Agric. Vol.25, No.1, 2009 IMPACT OF GROUND WATER ON WHEAT PRODUCTION IN DISTRICT JHANG, PUNJAB, PAKISTAN MUHAMMAD ASHFAQ*, MUHAMMAD AKRAM*, IRFAN AHMAD BAIG* and AQEELA SAGHIR** * Department of Agriculture Economics, University of Agriculture, Faisalabad, Pakistan ** Department of Agriculture Extension, University of Agriculture, Faisalabad, Pakistan ABSTRACT Pakistan comes in a region where rainfall is untimely and not enough to support the requirements of crops. To meet ever-increasing food and fiber requirements of rapidly multiplying population, Pakistan’s agriculture depends heavily on irrigation from surface and ground water resources. Canal water resources alone are not sufficient to meet crop water requirements. To overcome this deficiency, farmers exploit the ground water resources. In present study, concentration was given to quantify the impact of ground water on wheat production in District Jhang, Punjab, Pakistan. A production function was estimated by using the regression technique. Results of the study showed that tubewell irrigation accounts for about 19 percent of the total cost of production of wheat crop. The results also showed that land holding, use of fertilizer, experience of farming and sodium absorption ratio were major factors affecting gross value product (GVP) of wheat. Adjusted R 2 of the study was 0.59 which shows the goodness of fit of data. Significant F-test showed that results were overall significant. The findings of the study would help policy makers to formulate policies promoting wheat production through efficient and wise utilization of ground water resources. Key Words: Ground water, Wheat, Productivity, Salinity Citation: Ashfaq, M., M. Akram, I.A. Baig and A.

  • A Cross-Sectional Survey of Brucellosis in Small Ruminants of District Jhang, Punjab, Pakistan
    iolog ter y & c P a a B r f a o s l i t o a l n o r g u y o J ISSN: 2155-9597 Journal of Bacteriology & Parasitology Research Article A Cross-Sectional Survey of Brucellosis in Small Ruminants of District Jhang, Punjab, Pakistan Rizwan Saeed1, Hafiz Zaid Mahmood1*, Zulqarnain Baqar2, Sanaullah1 1Institute of Microbiology, University of Agriculture, Faisalabad, Pakistan; 2Department of Pathobiology, the University of Veterinary and Animal Sciences, Lahore, Pakistan ABSTRACT Background: Brucellosis is a bacterial zoonotic disease having a wide host range and global zoonotic importance. It has great public health importance in most of the countries, where livestock is a major source of food and income. High-risk individuals include animal handlers that are at great risk of getting an infection because bacterial transmission occurs from all body fluids from an infected animal. Objective: A randomized cross sectional survey was conducted to check the period prevalence of brucellosis in small ruminants in different areas of district Jhang. Methods: Serum samples were collected along with a questionnaire for this purpose. Different risk factors like age, sex, specie, feeding protocol, abortion history, type of herd, herd size, location were observed using a questionnaire. A total of 280 serum samples (136 caprine and 144 ovine) were collected and subjected to Rose Bengal precipitation test for screening of brucellosis. Results: Overall sero-positivity was 5.5% after confirmation with Indirect ELISA. 21 samples out of 280 were seropositive after RBPT screening and 14 out of 21 were confirmed seropositive for brucellosis by indirect ELISA.
