AHD Planned to distribute 500 forest & fruit trees in Thari Families

As rains were expected this monsoon, in hope that there would be enough water for a better yield, Cheetan Kolhi, a native of a village in Tharparkar district cultivated his field. He was among hundreds of other farmers who did the same.

However, in a turn of events, rather than a blessing, the rainfall proved to be a curse for a majority of Tharis. While there are doubts of acid rain, during the downpour, there was no sunlight, thus a number of seeds were also wasted and washed away.

According to Chottho Thakur, a humanitarian worker in islamkot, the rainwater was polluted with poisonous gases and brackish, which affected the cultivation of crops. Absence of sunlight and blowing of heavy winds also contributed negatively,” he says. Chotho, a man witnessing droughts in Tharparkar since at least last three decades, says after initial down-pouring, dry trees did become green and water level in the wells rose; however, fodder for the animals could not be grown – a matter of grave concern.

AHD Planned to plant 500 forest and fruit trees in farming communities that in future they can have fruit or tree for fodder and wood at their household level.

Still time to grow more and more trees in Tharparkar
