wheat on approximately 40 per cent of Pakistan’s total cultivated land.
Assess the extent to which the large amount of land currently used to grow wheat should be
used to grow other higher-value crops. Give reasons to support your judgement and refer to
examples you have studied. You should consider different points of view in your answer.

A huge area, 4–7 million hectares or one-fifth to one-third of the total agricultural
area of Pakistan, has seen yields decreased or crops lost completely due to
waterlogging and salinity.
Evaluate whether it is possible to prevent agricultural land being damaged by waterlogging

and salinity. Give reasons to support your judgement and refer to examples you have
studied. You should consider different points of view in your answer.
