RE: From The Soil to Our Body: My Journey to Appreciating the Role of Agriculture in Medicine
Agriculture is equal to live. No food, no live. It's a pity in Nigeria that farming and agriculture in general are not taken seriously. Most of our local foods are much expensive than the imported ones. It's time we pick up our cutlasses and hoes and go back to farming.
I personally have the ambition to go into agriculture, cos I know it's one way to safe Nigeria.
Thanks for sharing the benefits of agriculture with us @pope1995.
Nice one
While preparing this article I came across a statement which you can find in one of the references "African youth don't detest agriculture, but they just don't want to practice agriculture like their parents"
Therefore, I agree we should go back to farming, but I don't agree with use of hoes and cutlasses. They are primitive and results in little productivity......
What is wrong with bulldozers, tractors, mechanical planters, mechanical harvesters etc
Lol... That was a figurative speech.
