dc.description.abstractThis study is aimed at the climate change and its impact on the agriculture sector in the arid region of Pakistan between 1961 and 2000 (40 years) taking into account the secondary data of temperature and precipitation of 21 weather stations of the Pakistan Meteorological Department. The agriculture data were collected from the Pakistan Agriculture Research Council, whereas the primary data sources are questionnaire survey, and personal interviews. Five international publications were published from the current research and placed in the last of dissertation. Physiography and location of the study area with respect to sea are the key factors that control the climate. There are a number of factors that have their influence on the cropping pattern in the area apart from climate. They include the type of soils, availability of irrigation water, government policies, socio-economic condition, advance technologies, market value and human demand etc. The soil of irrigated plain in lower Punjab and Sind is more suitable for the agriculture as compared to other parts, where the water is insufficient for cultivation.
