00:00What if I told you one weed could be costing you your harvest and your health?
00:04Let's talk about Parthenium, and why women farmers need to lead the fight.
00:09Across Pakistan, women spend more time in the fields.
00:12So it's no surprise they're facing bigger challenges from Parthenium weed.
00:16This plant spreads fast, chokes out your crops, and can cause skin irritation,
00:21breathing issues and problems for your animals.
00:24But here's the problem.
00:25Most training and info about fighting Parthenium goes to men or big landowners.
00:30Women are often left out, even though they do much of the work.
00:34The good news?
00:35New solutions, like using helpful insects to control Parthenium, are available.
00:41But women need direct, practical training to use them safely and effectively.
00:46If you're a woman farmer, ask for information, join local meetings,
00:51and don't be afraid to speak up about your needs.
00:53When women are empowered with knowledge, everyone's farm health and future stand to gain.
00:59Let's support each other, and show Parthenium who's boss.
