Farming is considered as a tedious job and we think it doesn’t pay off well so we never tried to venture on it. Instead, some of us look for a different job or.. leave our homeland to serve another.
“Dati, nahihiya pa tayong sabihin na ang kabuhayan ng ating mga magulang ay pagsasaka o kaya medyo hindi pa tayo proud sabihin na ang tinapos natin ay ‘Agriculture-related’ course. So kahit na madiskarte ka, medyo mababa ang tingin mo sa chance mong makakuha ng trabaho na may mataas na sahod. Sad noh? Kaya.. nag-abroad ka na lang. Sana ngayon, dapat magkaroon tayo ng positibong pananaw tungkol dito” –
If we do not invest on human capital and educate (with proper mentality) now, the future might seriously suffer. Let’s be involved 🙂
😊 Agriculture is a NEED not just a WANT.
No Farmers, No Food, No Future ^_^

Watch This Computer Will Grow Your Food in the Future and see how it works.
Absolutely true.Farmers feed the world.They need the help of science technology and marketing for them to make their venture profitable .
Unfortunately humans often wake up late .We need govt. Subsidies,people’s education and an overall awareness about food source,production and supply from the school level.Magic needs to be instilled in farming for youngsters to get attracted 😊

Love this article! Myself being a young farmer, I understand exactly what you mean. I recently started my blog but I love advocating about ag and talking with my non-farming friends and explaining how things work to them.
