Yazman, south of Bahawalpur at the edge of the Cholistan desert, is the gateway to Derawar Fort and the annual Cholistan jeep rally, with canal-irrigated farms on one side and desert grazing land on the other.
Between Canal and Desert
Yazman's farms are watered by the canals of the Sutlej valley project, while beyond them the Cholistan desert stretches towards the Indian border. Wheat, cotton and fodder from family land are agricultural income. Families who have received desert land through government allotment schemes and are bringing it under cultivation list it in their wealth statements at its allotment cost.
Camels, Cattle and Goats
Cholistani herders raise camels, cattle and goats on desert grazing land. Animals raised on family land are part of farming; traders who buy animals in Cholistan and sell them in Bahawalpur, Multan or Lahore before Eid earn business income.
