Agricultural Land Suitability Analysis plays a pivotal role in sustainable land use planning, aiding decision-makers identifying areas most conducive to agriculture. This study employs systematic approach integrating Analytical Hierarchy Process and Multi-Criteria Decision techniques assess prioritize the suitability of agricultural Southern Punjab (Multan region). The methodology involves defining clear objectives, relevant criteria sub-criteria, establishing hierarchical structure conducting pairwise comparisons determine relative importance each factor. Our outcomes indicated that almost 43% area was highly suitable for agriculture, 27% moderately suitable, 16% marginally 8% less 6% not agriculture area. All lands had silty clay or type soil, which sandy loam soil Multan region. output is comprehensive map identifies Sensitivity analysis validation are incorporated enhance robustness reliability results. provides valuable tool planners policymakers make informed decisions regarding allocation, contributing practices resource management.

Accurate insights into the spatial distribution of cultivated areas, land use for effective agricultural management, and improvement food security planning, especially in developing countries. Therefore, this study examined impact changes population growth on wheat crop productivity. First, by incorporating more than three decades satellite data (1990–2022) different Landsat missions with machine learning algorithms, high-confidence classes were defined features, including cropland. Second, grown area was identified using cropland extraction based acreage assessment method (CLE-WAAM). Third, dynamics applying an exponential model to forecast predict demand. These findings necessitate integrated methodological development demand supply mechanisms two-step floating catchment (2SFCA) approach a thorough analysis socioeconomic developments. The results revealed that transformed non-cropland, percentage 8.01. A 79% rise occured between 1990 2022, projected increase 112% 2030. Specifically, cultivation decreased 28%, despite stagnant parameters observed since 2000. proposed contributes efficiently United Nations' sustainable goal (02: Zero Hunger) satellite, geospatial, statistical integration.

According to the Global Climate Risk Index, Pakistan is fifth most vulnerable nation in world climate change. The growing phenomena of change and global warming have increased on a worldwide level. To combat effects change, transition sustainable transportation system essential. Developed countries evaluated costs benefits such transition. However, developing like rarely investigated this matter thoroughly. So, context, paper case study analyzing transport sector Punjab-Pakistan achieve some targets for transportation. analysis carried out by using energy model Low Emission Analysis Platform (LEAP) from 2019 2050. Three scenarios are made, i.e., Business as Usual Scenario (BAUS) following current policies, Efficient Combustion (ECS), Electrical Vehicle (EVS) figure environmental social costs. It concluded that 2050, ECS EVS will reduce carbon dioxide emissions 21.6 18.5 million metric tons equivalent, compared Business-as-Usual Scenario. These savings terms cost be $ 157.1 134.6 Electric This research may help find suitable policy decisions at provincial level enhance sustainability increasing share electric vehicles Punjab, results replicated whole country South Asia.

The management of groundwater systems is essential for nations that rely on as the principal source communal water supply (e.g., Mohmand District Pakistan). work employed Remote Sensing and GIS datasets to ascertain recharge zones (GWRZ) in Pakistan. Subsequently, a sensitivity analysis was conducted examine impact geology hydrologic factors variability GWRZ. GWRZ determined by employing weighted overlay thematic maps derived from about drainage density, slope, geology, rainfall, lineament land use/land cover, soil types. use multi-criteria decision (MCDA) involves utilization multi-influencing factor (MIF) analytical hierarchy procedure (AHP) allocate weights selected influencing factors. MIF data found very high spanned 1.20%, covered 40.44%, moderate 50.81%, low 7.54%. In comparison, AHP technique results suggest 1.81% whole area high, 33.26 55.01% moderate, 9.92% has potential. geospatial-assisted approach helps increase conceptual knowledge resources evaluate possible zones.
