Not enough data
Zahid Baig's articles predominantly focus on agricultural and business-related topics within Pakistan. His coverage heavily emphasizes government announcements and data citations, making him most likely to respond positively to pitches that provide valuable insights into the latest developments in agriculture, farming, and industry trends within Pakistan.
Given Zahid's emphasis on citing data and covering specific sectors such as rice exports, wheat cultivation, fertilizer shortages, etc., he would be more receptive to pitches from experts with direct knowledge of these industries or those who can offer comprehensive data-driven analysis.
Considering his national geographic focus on Pakistan, any outreach should tailor content specifically relevant to the country's agricultural sector or related businesses.
