I’m a 27-year-old farmer doing tunnel farming for cucumbers and open-field corn. Right now, just lying in bed planning the next cucumber crop. Ask me anything about farming, crop planning, or life in the fields!

What do you need to keep in mind when you plant cucumbers?
Why do you grow these crops specifically?
How much is known about the india and Pakistan conflict from inside the country?
What is your favourite vegetable to eat?
How many wives do you have?
what’s tunnel farming
What’s your feeling about Modi?
How much does a cucumber sell for ?
How much do you need to plant, or rather yield in order to make a yearly living? Also, I’m not too keen on weather rotation or seasons over there so do you plant once or multiple times a year?

where in pakistan are you from, and where would you say the best views are? I have family from pakistan and they say the mountains are nice. and here in England we have supposedly authentic and imported Pakistani mangos here and they’re delicious. might have to try the vegetables if I ever happen to visit Pakistan tbh (unlikely but I always wonder)
What’s your favourite aspect and least favourite aspect of Pakistan?
Did you decide to become a farmer? Or is it something you had to because of lack of options?
Are you playing Farming Simulator? Or any other simulator?
Have you heard of poppies or opium? I hear it can be a lucrative trade
How accessible was education in general while growing up? How did you learn so good English?
How often do you need to replace the tunnel material? Meaning can your ‘winter’ fabric be used for multiple winters?

Not farming related and not meant to be disrespectful.
As an American, I’m just very curious. Do you think the Pakistani government was aware that Bin Laden was living in the country, and so close to the Military Academy?
Favorite place to visit in Pakistan?
Have you grown strawberries before ?

I’m very interested in differences in life and culture but more so in similarities. Could you describe a typical day in your life? Good luck with the crops my friend.
Does the government subsidize anything ?
How are you doing with the recent strikes?

For a farmer you are very articulate. You could have introduced yourself as a professor of agriculture and people in Reddit would not have noticed. Unless you’re using chatgpt 🙂
do you use organic or synthetic fertilizer? also, where does most of your crop go?
Guy from US here. 3 of my best dudes are from Pakistan. One goes by the first name of “Ajaz” I find that a pretty unique name, is this common there? Luv ya’ll. Hope all is well there!
What’s your trellising system for cukes? What diseases and pests do you deal with in your region? I’m a farmer in America and I grow cukes in tunnels as well
Hi from South Carolina (southeast of the U.S.). I always enjoy growing my perspective of the world, which is my intent behind these questions (I’m also more open minded and have traveled more than most from my region).
Thanks for doing this!
Not related to farming, but I saw some news about a huge piece of Pakistan declaring independence? There’s no real news on this I’ve seen yet except for a few posts on the internet.
How true is this, and what’s really going on?
How is your English so good???
Have you done much traveling? If so, where too ? Where do you dream of visiting?
