Thirty-year-old Sahar Iqbal, who employs the women in Pipli village, says when she married into her husband's family, she was expected of her to stay at home, despite being educated enough to find a job. But her husband encouraged her to do something -- and five years ago they turned the family property they inherited into a farm that employs local women in in a small village 180 km from the capital Lahore.
