 A photograph above shows centuries-old agriculture method being used in 21st century in Pakistan.
 
Mechanized agriculture has been introduced in Pakistan since many decades ago but every landholder cannot afford to buy or even hire the machinery used to plough the land for sowing the crops. The poor landholders and peasants continue with old traditional methods from burrowing, sowing and harvesting to threshing. In this photograph a peasant in a remote rural area of Sindh province of Pakistan ploughs the land in centuries-old style using the bulls.
