Paktika Province, located in southeastern Afghanistan, is widely recognized for its livestock and traditional handicrafts. The region is home to a large number of sheep, goats, and cattle, which are central to the livelihoods of many rural families. Livestock products such as wool, dairy, and meat are used locally and also sold in regional markets. In addition to animal husbandry, Paktika is known for handmade rugs, woolen garments, and embroidered items that reflect the province’s rich cultural heritage. With better support for local industries and access to markets, Paktika’s traditional economy could grow and create new opportunities for its population.
