Give Agricultural Land to Poor

GIVE AGRICULTURAL LAND TO THE POOR

The total rural land in Pakistani Government possession is estimated to be about one crore acres. With the Corporate Farming initiative for Foreign and Local businesses on 40 lac acres and 10 lac acres recently given to the Army in the Punjab province, that leaves about 50 lac acres of land in government control.

It is an established Islamic Economics principle that anyone who encircles common state land and cultivates it, becomes its owner and if he leaves it fallow for three years then it is reverted.

So, following this principle, the government should allocate 5 to 10 acres of land to rural youth and landless farmers. In this way, the total agricultural yield of the country would increase and jobless youth coming to cities from villages will stop thus reducing the burden on the mega cities. The youth would also become self sufficient. The country would become a food exporter in a few years.

Pakistani farmers with land holdings of ten acres are so successful, they are sending their children to college.

Hell no, agricultural land should only be owned by corporations be they private or public.

I am not to sure about that buddy

Especially for a developing country where farming provides employment to a good chunk of the population

Have you seen how unbelievably unproductive our farmers have been with their agricultural lands? Even our feudal lords have failed to be productive with their agricultural lands.

If the govt provides good quality seeds and solar electricity, the small landholders can form cooperatives to buy machinery and deliver good yields. They also have buffaloes and cows whose dung can be used as organic fertilzer. They normally do multi-cropping and get three crops per year.

government would never give land they rather ppl die from hunger.

If the government provides the same things to a corporation, the yields will be 10 times higher.

Then the landless farmers will have to work as slave labour at low wages in the corporate farms.

Subedars and Majors running corporate farms will be a disaster. My uncle who was a Colonel sold off family land and bought 275 acres land near the border. He ran it with his subedar for 10 years and did not show one rupee profit.

More jobs will be created for skilled labour and our agriculture exports will increase. For corporate farms to work, competent people have to be employed or the corporation will collapse and be replaced by another. If you are worried about the poor farmers then you should be advocating for universal healthcare and education and other welfare programs for the poor, this way you aren't sacrificing the productivity of your farmlands.

govt land should be auctioned off to all global companies

lots of big agri would want this land

they can bring in the latest GMO crops and machinery and provide cheap food to domestic population and surplus can be exported all at market rates

this is a recipe for famine. Do you think anyone who is given land is automatically going to figure out how to farm ?

Land will be given to village youth who know how to farm.
