Australian Scholarships

Multan: Australian High Commissioner Tim George has said that 100 agriculture-related scholarships will be given to Pakistani students for higher education.

Speaking to participants at a lunch hosted by City District Nazim Mian Faisal Mukhtar here on Monday, Mr George said that Australia would also provide technical assistance to Pakistan in the field of agriculture.

He said various agriculture-related programmes would be started with the collaboration of Bahauddin Zakariya University to make students aware of the techniques of modern farming and increase in the production standard.

The High Commissioner said his country would also provide assistance in cattle farming and dairy related projects.

He said that Multan was producing the best quality mangoes in the world but the production and size of mango orchards were less than their area. Dawn
