Abstract

This report provides an estimate for the costs of living for a reference family for rural Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KP), with a focus on Charsadda, Mardan and Swabi districts. There was a further focus on tobacco farmers as Pakistan is the one of the largest producers of tobacco in the world, and this is mainly grown in the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KP) province of Pakistan. This study uses the Anker methodology (Anker and Anker 2017) to estimate the cost of living for a typical size family in rural KP for a basic but decent living standard, or the living income.
