it only requires some costly machinery but i think its very effective, what do you think?

What costly machinery?

Some 10 hp electric motors, tyres and welded tubing. Problem is electricity.

A good research project may be solar powered pivot irrigation system, it's do-able ... solar pumps are already in the market.

Pak. Army Taliban and other Mujahideen must take back Kashmir, Only way to Solve Water Problem, as Kashmir is juglar Vein o f Pakistan

Technology is unknown to Pakistani farmers, all thanks to govt which hasn't taken any initiative in water conservation.
 
.
We do not need center pivot system. It might be suitable for arid and desert landscape, but not for irrigated plains of Punjab and Sindh.

i got some pictures of pivot system being used in Sindh
