OUTREACH PROGRAMS 

Knowledge is power and skill development is considered to be an important strategy for employment generation, 

reducing poverty and hunger, and social development and integration. Through this Faculty Outreach project an effort 

has been to link the highly qualified faculty of the university with the society for their education and skill development in 

various areas like kitchen gardening, cottage industry, value addition, pest management, human health, seed 

production, crop production, animal health and management, high value agriculture, rural poultry and poultry 

framing, and Agri. Business and resource conservation. The program was made open to the faculty to identify their 

target groups in various segments of the society according to their areas of expertise. During the reporting period, the 

target groups identified for skill development by the faculty included farmers, gardeners, labourers, housewives, 

working rural women, extension workers and university, college and school students, particularly girl students. 

The outreach courses were organized throughout the year but most of the courses were conducted during Sumer 

Semester 2010. About 24 proposals were received from Faculty of Agriculture, 6 from Faculty of Animal Husbandry, 2 

from Faculty of Veterinary Sciences, 6 from Division of Education & Extension, 3 from Faculty of Agric Engineering, 2 

from Faculty of Agric Economics, one from Faculty of Sciences, one each from T.T. Sing and Depalpur sub-campuses and 

4 from Collage of Agri, D. G. Khan. Looking at the compatibility of the subject areas, the proposals were grouped 

among the proposers within and between the faculties and the cost estimates were rationalized. To share the 

ownership with the trainees, the refreshment cost was left to the contribution from them. The courses were conducted 

in different areas of district Faisalabad, Chiniot, Jhang, Khanawal, Gujranwala, D.G. Khan, Muzaffar Garh, Bahawalpur, 

Cholistan, Rahim Yar Khan, Gujrat and AJK. 

More than 2000 individuals, primarily farmers, rural women and youth participated in the program. Even more 

important aspect of the activity remains that the faculty members were able to link to the society, identify their 

problems and bring back research questions. With the experience gained, it is expected now that the curricula and 

research at UAF would be more relevant to the needs of the society and time. 

Some of the individuals trained through this project would be able to prepare their own seed, feed for poultry/livestock, 

grow Mushroom on commercial basis, grow fruit nursery and plant nursery. The housewives, school and college girls 

would exercise their skills in kitchen gardening, fruits and vegetable presentation, and doing art and craft. 

Furthermore, the UAF faculty massively contributed in the rescue and rehabilitation of human and animal populations 

in the flood affected areas of the Punjab. Under the Outreach program the faculty members from the Faculty of 

Veterinary Sciences immediately rushed to the flood affected areas to rescue, provide needed treatment and vaccinate 

the Livestock. The major activities were carried out in the most devastated areas of Dist. Jhang and Muzaffar Garh. Later, 

more focused relief and rehabilitation activities were performed in the hard hit area of 18Hazarri, District Jhang. The 

UAF took total responsibility of providing relief goods and rehabilitation to the flood affected people of 12 villages of 

the 18-Hazari and mobilized all possible resources to reduce the pain of devastation. The faculty and students of the 

university contributed and raised funds amounting to more than 20 million to provide every necessity to the people of 

that area from School bags, stationary, books etc to cultivating of their lands, supply of wheat, fodder and vegetables 

seeds. The wheat seed was supplied under the Outreach programs and was distributed among farmers of the area at 

the occasion of Rabi Festival. The festival was well participated by the people of the area, civil society and government 

departments, the Minister Agriculture, Punjab was the Chief Guest. There had been a bumper crop of wheat and people 

witnessed a surplus of vegetables and fodders. 

With this experience of faculty outreach, there is a strong realisation that such programs can bridge up the gaps among 

the academia and society, increase relevance in the curricula and research activities and enhance the social 

development process.

RESEARCH PRODUCTS 

In addition to improving the teaching, training, skill development and outreach activities, the university faculty is 

becoming increasingly proactive in hunting national and international grants on competitive basis to support their 

research programs. The research grants won by the faculty have been very effective in supporting postgraduate studies, 

expanding laboratory and equipment facilities, sponsor postgraduate students, undergraduate work students and 

share some of the recurring expenditures of the university. The data presented here would verify that there has been a 

substantial increase in the total funding and number of research projects won by the faculty during the year under 

report. 

The research and training programs carried out during 2010-11 at UAF has been funded by Higher Education 

Commission (HEC), Pakistan Science Foundation (PSF), Pakistan Agricultural Research Council (PARC)/ Agricultural 

Linkages Program (ALP), FDTTPC Endowment Fund, Promotion of Research (POR) Fund, Ministry of Science and 

Technology (MOST), Govt. of the Punjab, Punjab Agricultural Research Board (PARB), International Foundation for 

Science (ISF), PAK-US Science & Technology Cooperation Program, Australian Centre for International Agricultural 

Research (ACAIR), International Livestock Research Institute (ILRI), German Academic Exchange Service (DAAD), JICA , 

Aus-Aid, USDA Foreign Agriculture Service etc. The enhanced persuasion and facilitation from ORIC and increase in the 

number of TTS faculty have led to greater submission and success rate of hunting competitive national and 

international research projects. The titles and cost of the on-going projects and summary of the research projects 

submitted to different funding agencies are given as under:
