CERES-Wheat model was used to study the simulations of development, growth and yield of wheat at different sowing dates, nitrogen rate and irrigation levels recorded at Agronomic Research Area, University of Agriculture, Faisalabad during 2010-11 and 2011-12. Experiment-I comprised of three levels of fertilizer (80, 120 and 160 kg N ha-1) in main plot and six different levels of irrigation at critical stages in sub-plots (Irrigation at Tillering, Stem Elongation, Booting and Grain Formation; Irrigation at Stem Elongation, Booting and Grain Formation; Irrigation at Tillering, Stem Elongation and Grain Formation; Irrigation at Tillering, Stem Elongation and Booting; Irrigation at Tillering and Stem Elongation, and Irrigation at Stem Elongation and Booting). Experiment-II comprised of two sowing dates (15th November and 15th December) in main plots and four irrigation levels at different levels of potential soil moisture deficit (Full Irrigation, 45mm, 60mm and 75mm PSMD) in sub plots. Experiment was conducted in RCBD with split plot arrangement, having 20 cm row spacing, 125 kg ha-1 seed rate, Sahar-2006 test cultivar and replicated thrice. Results showed that Full irrigation and 120 kg nitrogen ha-1 produced maximum yield. Net profit and benefit cost ratio was maximum in Full irrigation and 160 kg nitrogen ha-1. Irrigation at 45 mm PSMD sown at 15th November produced maximum grain yield. Climate change scenarios showed reduction in wheat yield from 8.45 to 14.55% and 19.03 to 22.55% in mid and end century. Adaptation strategy for climate change and water shortage by 20% for mid-century is 22nd November sowing date and 20% increase in seed rate.

ڈاکٹر ابرار حسین [والد ماجد سعید احمد اکبرآبادی]

ڈاکٹر ابرار حسین
قارئین برہان کویہ خبر نہایت افسوس کے ساتھ سنائی جارہی ہے کہ پچھلے مہینے جولائی کی بارہ تاریخ کودوپہر کے قریب برہان کے مدیراعلیٰ برادر عزیز مولانا سعید احمد کے والد ماجد جناب ڈاکٹر ابرار حسین صاحب قبلہ مراد آباد میں رحلت فرماگئے۔انا ﷲ وانالیہ راجعون۔
مرحوم نہ صرف یہ کہ ایک کامیاب اورنامور ڈاکٹر تھے بلکہ بہت سے غیر معمولی اوصاف کی وجہ سے اکابر کی یادگار سمجھے جاتے تھے۔ مولانا سعید احمد کے تعلق سے وہ مجھے بھی اپنی اولاد کی طرح جانتے تھے اوراس تقریب سے مجھے بہت قریب سے ان کی زندگی کوپڑھنے کوموقع ملا، اوّل درجے کے متبع شریعت، راسخ العقیدہ ، فرائض وواجبات ہی کے نہیں مستحبات وآداب تک کے پابند،بڑے فرض شناس اورعاشق رسول۔انقلاب ۴۷ء اوردہلی چھوڑ دینے کے بعد بھی تین چار دفعہ یہاں تشریف لائے،پیرانہ سالی اورانتہائی نقاہت کے باوجود اسی پہلی سی آن بان کے ساتھ پابند اوقات،ان کی خدمت میں بیٹھ کر ایسا محسوس ہوتاتھا کہ اباجی ؒکے پاس بیٹھا ہوا ہوں اُسی انداز کی محبت، اُسی طرح کی بزرگانہ شفقتیں، ان کودیکھ کر قلب میں عجیب طرح کاسکون محسوس ہوتاتھا،ہرضروری بات میں مجھ سے مشورہ لیتے اور اس کوغیر معمولی اہمیت دیتے تھے۔مرحوم کی زندہ جاوید یادگار خود ان کے اکلوتے صاحبزادے مولانا سعید احمد ہیں۔اﷲ تعالیٰ ان کے فیوض کو تا دیر قائم رکھے اور ایسی لائق وفائق اولاد ہرمسلمان کونصیب ہو۔
میں نے جناب ڈاکٹر صاحب قبلہ مرحوم کے ضروری حالاتِ زندگی معلوم کرنے کے لیے برادر عزیز کوخط لکھا،جواب میں ان کی جوتحریر آئی ہے اس کے اقتباسات یہاں درج کیے جاتے ہیں۔رحمہ اﷲ رحمۃ واسعۃ۔
’’ابا کی پیدائش بچھرایوں میں ہوئی، والد کا نام حکیم غلام نیاز تھا جو مرادآباد ضلع کے مشہور طبیب تھے۔ مڈل پاس کرکے نواب حسن پور کے ہاں اتالیق ہوگئے۔ مگر کچھ دنوں...

Impact of Covid-19 As a Pandemic on Various Industries: A Conceptual Paper

Pandemics always create dreadful effects not only on human life but also drastically influence businesses and industries. Historical evidence has apparently indicated that the outbreak of Spanish flu, SARS, MERS, and Ebola viruses, all created radical impacts on businesses around the globe, leaving behind the economic structures into miseries and deprivations. Similar is the case of COVID-19 outbreak which instigated from China and dispersed all over the globe. In Pakistan, the first case was reported in March 2020 and since then the government has relentlessly tried to impose lockdown and social distancing in order to avert the harm. It has been substantiated that the public isolations and lockdowns have not only yielded negative impacts on the economy but also on different forms of business and employment. Therefore, this study is aimed to analyze potential impacts of COVID-19 on different forms of industries in Pakistan through gathering the public opinion as the source of data. The study is one of the preliminary studies therefore it is based on descriptive design in order to show perceived impact of outbreak of virus. Results indicated that the pandemic is harmful and affecting most of the business in negative manner however there are some businesses which are burgeoning on opportunities emerged from the pandemic and attaining growth due to the spread of the virus.

Managing Higher Education in Pakistan under Gats Environment

The General Agreement on Trade in Services (GATS) is a set of multilateral, legally enforceable rules governing international trade in services. These rules are aimed at enhancing international trade in services including through promotion of progressive liberalization, free competition among service providers, and open access to national markets with out any prejudice or any pre-conditionality. The agreement regulates the cross-border flow of trade and investment in services and provides important opportunities and threats for developing countries especially in higher education field. However, the potential impact of GATS is still unknown as it is a new agreement yet to be implemented fully. With out examining the purpose, motivations, content, thrust and tone of GATS and specific threats and promises it holds for the economy, society and cultural enfoldments of signatories, they would be grouping into dark. Instead of being positive impacted, negative fallout may be in store for them. Considering the role and importance of higher education for sustainable social, political and economic development in Pakistan it is imperative for the appropriate quarters to investigate pros and cons attached to this new set of globalization process. To better understand this ongoing process the research explores the viability of options for our own institutions to avail the opportunities being offered by foreign market like Middle East, Central Asia, and South Asia etc for performing an efficient role as educational providers across border and vise versa. The research is based on the belief that insightful evaluation of consequence of opening education at various levels of GATS is essential for the formulation of rational, prudential and internationally acceptable policy and response mechanism on the part of Pakistan. Therefore, the dissertation aims to furnish helpful inputs to the authorities managing higher education in Pakistan so as to enable them to articulate realistic proposals, preempt the impact of negative effects attached with the agreement, execute necessary safeguards and reap benefits if any at appropriate stage. The resultant awareness is likely to smoothen higher education system in Pakistan compatible with the dictates of ongoing iiiglobalization and to withstand the competitive environment shaped by the developed world. Depending on the sagacity of policy and organizational intervention the intended expansion in trade and promotion of development can be realized and perils of disposed trade rise by foreign owned and controlled academic institutions can be avoided. Research endeavours to highlight the stakes and the pearls of intended participation of the third world in the forthcoming round of negotiations of GATS and the future of competitiveness of Pakistan’s higher education system hinges upon the reduction of prospective risks and maximization of our competencies.
