Agriculture is backbone of Pakistani economy as it contributes significantly towards our GDP and employment. While playing its role as financial institution to support farming community through tailor made financial products ABL truly acknowledges the efforts of research institutions to upscale farming techniques.

To encourage diversification in Agriculture Sector and adoption of state-of-the-art farming techniques, Allied Bank has entered into collaboration with Pir Mehr Ali Shah Arid Agriculture University Rawalpindi to conduct research on viability of the Hydroponic farming in Pakistan using alternative energy resources.
