The Pakistan Army has initiated its inaugural agriculture venture within the framework of the Special Investment Facilitation Council (SIFC) with the aim of transforming unproductive lands into arable ones in South Waziristan.

In the Zarmalan district of South Waziristan, a pilot project has been launched, with the objective of converting 1,000 acres of barren land into fertile ground suitable for cultivation.

Under this initiative, the Pakistan Army intends to render an additional 44,000 acres of land cultivable, contributing to the enhancement of farmers' economic prospects and the mitigation of malnutrition in the region.

Local residents expressed their gratitude to the Pakistan Army for the successful completion of the pilot project, recognizing its potential to bolster agricultural practices and generate fresh employment opportunities.
