Pakistan’s agriculture sector has suffered devastating losses this year, with Rs 4.2 trillion wiped out—Rs 2.2 trillion in wheat alone. Growth in the sector has collapsed from 6.25% to a catastrophic 0.56%, crushing farmers and the economy alike.
Compare this to February 2022, when farmers had earned an additional Rs 1.1 trillion in that year alone under @ImranKhanPTI’s government. The cumulative difference between 2022 and 2025 for farmers? A staggering Rs 5.5 trillion lost under these Form #47 usurpers.
But sadly, the pain doesn’t end there. Layered onto this economic devastation is the collapse in purchasing power, plunging millions deeper into poverty. According to the World Bank, using the old metric ($3.65/day), an additional 13 million Pakistanis have fallen below the poverty line—a 13.68% increase since 2022, pushing the total to 108 million.
Under the new benchmark ($4.20/day), the number is even more horrifying: 114 million Pakistanis (44.7% of our people) now live in poverty.
