Wheat is the principal food crop of Pakistan and is produced mainly
in the Indus Valley of Punjab province. The world’s largest irrigation
system makes farming possible in this otherwise barren country. Peasant
farmers blend new and traditional methods, still relying heavily on oxen
and buffalo. For the first time in the early 1980s, Pakistani farmers grew
enough wheat to feed the population and still have some surplus for export.
