In view of the problem of climate change, the engineer of Pakistan developed a unique cultivation of tomatoes without soil, soil and fertilizer using modern technology in the agricultural sector.
There is no shortage of talented minds in Pakistan. Our youths are so talented that they are awestruck all over the world with their intelligence. One such young engineer is this engineer who decided to benefit the country with his services and revolutionized agriculture.
It is engineer Atiqur Rehman who hails from Hyderabad, the second largest city of Sindh, who has revolutionized the agricultural sector by using modern technology to find solutions to the implications of climate change.
According to Ashok Sharma, our correspondent from Hyderabad, Atiqur Rehman used modern technology not in the land or in the fields but in a factory and now tomatoes are being grown in a unique way.
This innovative method is called hydroponic where no land is required for cultivation of crops, no favorable climate and no fertilizer required.
The young engineer sowed seeds imported from foreign countries in boxes, which produced cherry tomato and plum tomato plants in three months. Each plant will yield 36 kg of tomatoes per year.
This state-of-the-art solar-powered factory has drip irrigation with cooling and an anti-virus system operated through a mobile phone application.
The desired crop yield can be achieved only by maintaining adequate lighting and required cooling in this factory. The environment inside the factory is kept in such a way that whether it is hot outside or raining, any outside weather has no effect inside the factory.
The factory has installed advanced systems to protect the crops from bacteria, virus or any insect.
Engineer Atiqur Rehman says that the cost of setting up this factory is high, but all expenses will be recovered in a year or two. With this technology, not only tomatoes but also cotton, sunflower and other crops can be cultivated.
