FCCI President Welcomes Pakistan's First Tree Transplantation Orchard
Farooq Yousaf Sheikh called for wider use of conservation technology to protect mature trees affected by development projects.

Faisalabad Chamber of Commerce and Industry (FCCI) President Farooq Yousaf Sheikh has welcomed the establishment of what was described as the country's first formal tree-replantation orchard in Faisalabad, according to the Associated Press of Pakistan (APP).
Sheikh characterized the orchard as a significant step toward preserving mature trees affected by development projects, and called for wider adoption of conservation technology to support similar efforts elsewhere.
The initiative reflects growing attention among business and civic leaders in Pakistan to balancing development with environmental conservation, particularly as urban and infrastructure projects continue to expand in the region.
APP's report did not include further technical detail on the orchard's capacity or the specific transplantation methods being used.
