The agricultural industry in Pakistan, which accounts for 18.9% of the economy and employs 42.3% of the labour force, has a long history dating back to the East India Company’s revenue base. However, the sector has faced oppressive systems like bonded labour, particularly in Sindh, due to specific conditions such as water shortages and poverty. Bonded labour, or debt slavery, involves individuals working for money lenders or landlords to repay debts, often with exorbitant interest rates and limited pay.
