Rising population and industry will create dual burden on
agriculture. First a large population will need more food and
fiber, second agriculture will have a less reliable supply of
irrigation water to meet these rising demands. Future water needs
can be met by using available resources more efficiently, but in
many cases it will be necessary to make increased use of low
quality waters. Competition for water among agriculture, industry
and domestic uses will increase 15 % of the available water
resources by 2025 as against the present use of 3 %. Under the
prevailing condition of aridity in Pakistan, the need of the hour
is to search new water management strategies for enhancing water
use efficiency and soil management strategies which could improve
soil characteristics leading towards improved water harvesting.
Soil water conservation is a crucial issue to be faced in future.
