SAR-i-PUL (PAN): The economy of around 80% population of the Sar-i-Pul province depends on agriculture and livestock farms, provincial officials said.
In addition, natural resources elsewhere in the province offer better employment opportunities for the residents.
Farmers said rehabilitation could not take place during the past decade in the province as was expected by the people, noting the growers’ community was facing the same decades old problems.
Half of their land deprived of cultivation every season because of shortage of irrigation water, they added.
