CHARIKAR (Pajwhok): Farmers in central Parwan say their crops’ yield has significantly decreased due to drought and scarcity of water.
Mohammad Jamshid, a resident of Rahasht village, told Pajhwok Afghan News he inherited farming from his father and he supported his six member family through the occupation, but due to drought this year, he did not collect any good harvest from his land.
He said: “In the past we would twice collect harvests worth up to 50,000 afs per acre, but this year we collected harvest worth less than 30,000 afs from an acre.”
