This research proposal presentation for RASTA CGP 8.0 examines Pakistan's agriculture sector vulnerability to climate change, including floods, droughts, and heatwaves. It outlines objectives to assess policy alignment gaps, analyze Climate-Smart Agriculture frameworks, and propose integrated recommendations for resilience and food security. Key elements include literature review, analytical framework, mixed-methods methodology with Punjab and Sindh case studies, expected contributions, stakeholder engagement, and a 14-month timeline.

Slide 1 - Harvesting Resilience:
Aligning Agriculture and Climate Policies
for a Food-Secure Pakistan

Slide 2 of 12

Slide 2 - Introduction & Background

Pakistan's agriculture sector vital to economy (42nd largest GDP, key exports)
Diverse climates: continental north, arid west, wet east, tropical south
Highly vulnerable to climate change: ranked 5th in extreme weather events (1999-2018)
Impacts: 2022 floods affected 30M, glacier melt affects rivers, droughts/heatwaves

Slide 3 of 12

Slide 3 - Research Problem

5th: Most Affected
30M: People Impacted
53.7°C: Record Heat
70-80%: Debt-to-GDP

Slide 4 - Research Scope & Objectives

Scope: National agriculture & climate policies, focus on Punjab/Sindh case studies
Objective 1: Assess alignment gaps between ag & climate policies
Objective 2: Analyze Climate-Smart Agriculture (CSA) frameworks
Objective 3: Propose integrated policy recommendations
Objective 4: Enhance food security & resilience

Slide 5 of 12

Slide 5 - Literature Review

Climate change intensifies in Asia: heatwaves, floods, glacier melt
Pakistan: Punjab Climate Change Strategy, but integration lacking
CSA practices: drought-resistant crops, efficient irrigation
Policy misalignment hinders resilience (e.g., 2022 floods economic hit)
Global: Paris Agreement adaptation needs local alignment

Slide 6 of 12

Slide 6 - Analytical Framework: CSA Governance

Federal Policy	Provincial Implementation	Local Adaptation	Stakeholder Engagement
National Ag Policy	Punjab/Sindh Plans	Farmer Practices	NGO/Monitoring
Climate Policy	CSA Integration	Resilience Measures	Feedback Loops
Alignment Check	Gap Analysis	Capacity Building	Policy Update

Slide 7 of 12

Slide 7 - Methodology

Mixed methods: Policy document analysis + qualitative interviews
Case studies: Punjab (irrigated) & Sindh (arid) provinces
Analytical tools: Governance framework, stakeholder mapping
Data triangulation for robustness
Ethical considerations: Informed consent, anonymity

Slide 8 of 12

Slide 8 - Data Sources & Case Studies

Data Sources

Policy docs (Nat Ag Policy, Climate Change Policy)
Interviews (50+ stakeholders)
Secondary: Reports (World Bank, UAF studies)
Field data (crop yields, disaster impacts)

Case Studies

Punjab: Flood-resilient rice/wheat
Sindh: Drought-tolerant cotton/mango
