In the recent world, investing in Agriculture may be a way to save oneself from poverty and also relieve ones country from recession. Countries like China, India, Brazil and Indonesia have used agriculture to improve their economy in recent time. Almost all aspect of agriculture is profitable if done in the right way but some may be more profitable than others. This also depends on ones interest and ones country unless one plan to export its products. My choice of agriculture is vegetable plantation. Here is my tomato farm

Although I'm starting small but I have a great dream to feed the nation with my agro business.

Here is little about tomato farming:

What Is A Tomato?
Tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) is a fruit vegetable that is widely cultivated for its edible fruit. It belongs to the nightshade family (Solanaceae) and is native to South America but is now grown worldwide. Tomatoes are rich in vitamins and minerals and are commonly used in a wide range of dishes, including salads, sauces, and soups. They can be consumed both raw and cooked, and come in a variety of colors, shapes, and sizes, including cherry tomatoes, Roma tomatoes, and beefsteak tomatoes.


Benefits of Tomato Farming
👉👉Economic opportunities: Tomato farming creates economic opportunities for farmers, traders and other players in the value chain, contributing to income generation and poverty reduction.

👉👉Nutritional value: Tomatoes are rich in vitamins and minerals, which are essential for a healthy diet.

👉👉Health benefits: Tomatoes contain antioxidants and anti-inflammatory properties, which have been linked to a reduced risk of chronic diseases such as cancer and heart disease.

👉👉Job creation: Tomato farming creates job opportunities for farm laborers, processors, marketers, and other stakeholders in the value chain.

👉👉Export potential: Tomato can be export to other countries and beyond, contributing to foreign exchange earnings.

👉👉Diversification: Tomato farming can be integrated into other cropping systems, providing farmers with options for diversification and risk management.

👉👉Community development: Tomato farming can contribute to community development by promoting social cohesion, employment, and local economic development.


Step-By-Step Guide on how to start tomato farming

👉👉Seedbed preparation: Prepare the seedbed by mixing soil with organic matter like compost, manure, or peat moss to improve soil quality.

👉👉Planting: Plant the tomato seeds in rows, following the recommended spacing and depth for the variety.

👉👉Irrigation: Water the plants regularly, especially during the dry season, to ensure proper growth and fruiting.

👉👉Fertilization: Apply fertilizer to the plants at regular intervals to provide essential nutrients.

👉👉Pest and disease control: Protect your crop from pests and diseases by using appropriate control methods such as crop rotation, biological control, and chemical control.

👉👉Weeding: Remove weeds around the tomato plants regularly to prevent competition for nutrients and space.
Pruning and staking: Train the tomato plants to grow upright by pruning and staking them.

👉👉Harvesting: Harvest the tomatoes when they are fully ripe, and sell them at the market or process them for export.

CONCLUSION
Apart from this tomato farming, I still run a poultry and a piggery farm as part of my agro business. Agriculture is lucrative and comes with alot of opportunities for both youths and adults. Invest in one or more Agro business today and save the world from hunger as well as to rescue your country from recession.

Though it is said not to despise the little beginning because you have started from a place and with this you can fend for your family. During the olden days, my country do a lot of commercialized farming which helped a lot with the GDP and GNP positively but in this present day some parts of the country have been left to do, which the food we are producing in the country is not enough to cater for us and we now do more import of foods that should have been cultivated in our land.

Shows the land full of rock, construction debris, and plastic:

Nice one. You are right with your point but this is seen at the extreme end of the farm. I already said in the article that am starting small so I'm running the farm on a small portion of land. So those debris, rocks and plastics are packed during land preparation at a corner. This might has mistakenly been spread by some of my workers. I never even observe it till the moment this snapshot was taken. Thanks for your observations.

Having food security plays a big part for an economy of a country. If you're one of the biggest producers and farmers in your region, it's no doubt that you're one of the big contributors to your economy. But even not that as big as I am thinking, as long as you produce your own food, you're not just helping to keep up with the economy but also you're securing your food and lessening the problem that you have to deal with. At the same time, not just being secured in food but you also have to produce and sell it within your region and much better to export it in country's that has a lot of demand for crops, tomato and etc.

Goodluck with that. Quite a lot of people going into agriculture think it is easy and would fetch them a lot of money once they get into it. Subsistence farming is a whole lot different from commercial farming, and when you get into the latter your cost rises rapidly, as well as the chances of failure despite the amount spent, thus look at things critically before you decide to 'grow' your 'agro business', it is not a walk in the park.

Agribusiness will always boom, especially if you're a large-scale farmer. Huge companies will want you to supply for them, and you basically can just expand with the contracts that you'll get from these huge companies. If you're a small-scale farmer, you can still create your own products out of the produce that you deem to be not fit in hitting the markets. You can get the scraps off of these harvests and create other products that you can sell for a profit.

There's just a lot of potential to branch out if you have an agribusiness, though it's not always a 'green' investment as acts of nature such as storms or severe flooding can render your crops useless. It's a grind that requires a lot of work, but is worth it in the long run.

Nice I agree but I would put the emphasis onto intelligent agriculture and farming.   Its a competitive business and commodities are always a sharp risk in the market prices vs costs expenditure over the season to grow them.   I do agree with you generally on this being a growth sector over decades, world population is growing and if the economies of China and India are moving further away from agrarian type small farming it would require the most efficient development of processed farming and fertilizer usage.   
  Im very bullish of fertilizer being a required commodity for decades forthcoming.  It can actually take a decade to set up the highest quality extraction of reliable sourced agriculture, it forms in seams a bit like how coal in mined or seems alot like that to me its geology and high cost of investment.  You are a consumer of that product but I would agree its hard work and intelligent use required all round. 

Keep us updated, very interested in how you go vs any challenges :)

That's great and the same here too, and I'm thankful that I was part of a signature paid campaign that can able to sustain my capital on this kind of investment agro farming.  IMO, I find vegetable plantation and livestock farming to be my preferred choice in agriculture because it offers a range of opportunities for profitability, given the increasing demand for fresh and healthy produce.  By adopting effective cultivation techniques, efficient resource management, and market analysis, the vegetable plantation can be a rewarding and sustainable agricultural endeavor.  Aside from that, did you know that all kinds of farmers in my country were supported by our government, just like giving soil fertilizer and hybrid seedlings.

I tend to agree that fact, agriculture has the potential to help a country overcome a recession by providing employment opportunities, generating income, and ensuring food security.  By creating jobs, particularly in rural areas, agriculture can address unemployment and boost the overall economy IMO.

It should be saving a country's economy.A country's agriculture to most of the counrries especially third world ones, should be giving attention of their agriculture if they are planning to improve their economy. Problem to some countries, is that governmenta are more focused with importing from other countries than having ideas of exporting their own. Land properties are there but they are not making use of its potential. Creating your own agricultural trademark as a country won't be easy but atleast in a long run it would be a great tool not only for profit potential for country but also with utilizing it to local markets as a resource.

and to top it off, you have free vegies on your table, right? at least something to eat especially if you plant different varieties of plants. you don't need to buy from the market anymore and you are sure about the quality of your produce. so think of the advantage that it will give to your family alone. if you are just a small farmer, you can very well sell it to your local market as well. you don't need to look far to see the benefits of being a small farmer.
i believe during pandemic days, many people went back to basics like tending their own garden.

Countries that are good in agriculture have made good progress in the economy. More countries have begun to concentrate on agriculture. Even the corporate networks have begun to focus on agriculture. Microsoft have bought agricultural lands considering the future. These corporate firms were more futuristic, which means they have well understood the future and working on it.

The worst happening with agriculture is the lack of importance given. Most of the time third parties eat the profit. Governments need to make arrangements, because people find it hard and don't enjoy the good out of their efforts.

I can say that agriculture is really beautiful in every country so for someone like you who builds your own vegetable garden there are sure to be opportunities that will come especially when you have harvested it and brought it to the market.

Here for us, agriculture is also the first source of income, because the lands here are very large, mostly planted with rice, vegetables and many other root crops. But only the rich are in control because the wages here as a farmer are very small and only enough to eat for a day. So all we do here is plant vegetables in our small yard so that when we get hungry, we can cook something and prepare it for the table. So this can't deny that it really helps a lot especially if the government supports it.

I agree with you that recession in countries can be save by agriculture. As we all know that agriculture has the potential role in reviving a countries economy. Agriculture industry can be a source of employment and provide income to it's employees. Agriculture can be source of our foods, if we have enough harvest of fruits and vegetables the cost will be lower that is needed by the people, it could help us to save money in times of recession. Farming is a really good source of food and employment, it can also be a business opportunity to our local farmers.

Your success story of agricultural farming is truly inspiring and serves as an excellent model for improving our personnel economies and safeguarding families from the grasp of poverty. Moreover, agriculture, being a labor-intensive sector, it not only generates numerous jobs but also plays a crucial role in our national economy by providing food for human and animal consumption, as well as it is a source of raw material for various industries such as Textile, paper and food processing industries.

for free?

I'd like to know more about your life base as a comparison suggestion. Agriculture is not a general solution to recession, it can be done if your area is geologically supportive.

But indeed there are places that are deliberately forced into fertile land with the support of the use of modern technology and excessive chemicals, while in a state of recession some of these supports become scarce and expensive which results in agricultural financing swelling than usual.

Agriculture is a very important field, but nowadays, many countries and people prefer to follow modern industrial things and gradually abandon agriculture. They think it is no longer profitable. To be honest, I am thinking the same as you, when my country is gradually abandoning agriculture, I see in the future, it will play a bigger role and will be prioritized with any field. I am also planning an organic fruit and vegetable farm and a poultry farm, both of which will be operational next year.

Having a noble dream is certainly something that must be achieved, especially if you want to reduce unemployment around you with a small business that you started through plantations. I know you are willing to work hard to achieve that dream, even sacrificing your time, energy and possessions in order to reach that dream so that it can be achieved. You have proven that starting a business does not always require new and sophisticated equipment, you only need to use an empty plot of land to turn it into land full of plants that have a sale value when they are harvested.

Involving the people around you is also a good strategy, because inviting the people closest to you certainly won't make too many demands on you. You must have a strong belief in running a business, today your business may still be small, but who would have thought that in the future your business will grow much more than before and be able to employ more people.
Good luck mate.

Countries that do not develop agriculture properly will slowly experience difficulties in meeting their food needs and the way they fulfill agriculture is by buying from other countries so that prices will be higher.
Slowly many countries understand the importance of developing agriculture properly because it has an important role. In recent years, it has become increasingly aggressive to build agriculture independently in every resident's house to avoid food shortages due to extreme weather, but unfortunately it is difficult to do in urban areas with narrow land.

Yes, agriculture can save a country from recession when the government Play their major role in the life of the farmers and it can also help the country economy to improve higher in the future by making crops and other food items surplus in the land. With this your Tomatoes plantation farming you displayed here, if you can take a good care of the tomatoes in this season, I think you will earn something good from the farm that will help you to expand your business by investing half of the money on Bitcoin. I think, you have that plan to involve yourself in Bitcoin investment which is profitable if you can take a good step when the money come into your account.

It is never that simple, being able to produce your own food not only reduces the costs associated with it, but it gives you food security in the case of an intense economic crisis, but it is impossible that agriculture alone can save a country or even a single person from a recession.

As it is very common that during a period of economic crisis the government tries to control the price of food and it could force producers to sell their products for a loss, and instead of helping you farming your own food could be counterproductive.

Any country that can grow food that can feed its inhabitants will always have a favorable balance of payment in international trade. Most nations especially developing ones that rely on other countries for food will face economic problems if the economy is not well managed. Agriculture could also be used as a political or diplomatic tool to influence other countries. Some nations even use it as a weapon of war during conflicts. Investing in agriculture is a must for every country because it doesn't only bring monetary gains but it protects the nation.

Every big dream starts small. You can start locally and think globally. Use your current farm to gain all experience and exposure you need. Carry out any experiment using your crops that you can replicate it in a large scale.

I looked around your farm and I saw that people have started living around the environment. Integrated farming is a good one but you should also consider the environmental consequences of rearing animals around humans. The smell of poultry farms and piggery can be very annoying. Such farms can also lead to the outbreak of disease. Ensure you get all the necessary licenses from your country's health and agricultural government officials.

agriculture is the solution to the current crisis, where all needs go up, and food prices are also very high every day, by farming and raising livestock at least the profits you can get can reduce expenses for daily life first then think about exports with big profit

I completely agree with your perspective that agriculture can play crucial role to mitigate impact of recession. However, there are also issues with agriculture sector, such as rising prices of fertilizer and unfavorable climate conditions. Farmers require support from government to effectively handle these issues and make agriculture sector more productive and profitable.

Regarding, investing half of the income in Bitcoin from agriculture farming, is a commendable idea, however properly understanding the fundamentals of Bitcoin and its market dynamics is essential prior to make an investment decision.

As part of the topic, I will give an example of the Ukrainian agricultural market. As you know - since 2014 Ukraine has been subjected to terrorist aggression by Russia, and since 2022/2023 the southern and eastern regions have been subjected to almost total destruction, including an ecological terrorist act - the undermining of hydroelectric power plants, which led to the flooding of huge areas of the southern regions of Ukraine, and accordingly to the suspension of work of a large number of agricultural companies. Until 2022, Ukraine was the largest supplier of agricultural products to the world market.
Since 2022, the forced migration of producers to the western regions of Ukraine began. A huge number of private small agro-companies appeared.
The local topography is not so convenient for cultivation and cultivation of huge areas, as there are many mountain massifs, which does not allow to cultivate huge land banks. But, the business has adapted and now there are many companies that manage land banks from 100 to several thousand hectares of land. And produce is grown both in greenhouses and in the open ground.
I would like to mention one company of which I am an investor. And I will single it out not only because I am an investor, but because the company uses blockchain technology to attract investments and pay dividends!
The company is called AgroGloryTime and is located in Transcarpathia.
The business, investment mechanisms can be found on the company's website https://agroglorytime.io/#crowdsale.

@OP, you have to lock the other thread (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5459256.0) so that you can just continue the discussion with this thread that has already 2 pages.

I guess that it has been doubled throughout the cloud flare issue. But that's fine, you only have to lock that or the mods will eventually delete as it's duplicated topic.

This picture made me remember my friend's cucumber farm where I go during planting and harvesting period. It used to be fun and I really love the process. The drip tape irrigation system makes it more fun and enjoyable. We produce every time of the season.

Agriculture is the profession that gives money to the people and as well as feed the people. It should be upheld by every country that has what is takes to farm.

Small agriculture may be cheap for some who own house and have yard but if someone really wants to own farm, then good luck on ROI. Farming is not easy, requires a lot of investment and ROI isn't really attractive.
By the way, when you live in expensive countries, investing in Agriculture can't really save you from poverty. For example, in the USA and Europe, food is cheap, income is high. You have to keep in mind that every hour you spend in the garden, should generate more in value than your salary, otherwise it's a little bit waste of time but if that's a hobby, then no problem.
I think that your advice mostly applies to poor countries where they import food and sell it in high price. Countries where highest percentage of salaries are spent on food.

Yes, cherry tomatoes are my favourite. One of my dreams is to have a small plot of land where I can grow my favorite vegetables and fruits.

With regard to agriculture, whether in industrial or agricultural countries, it plays a major role in the growth of the economy and overcoming recession. Agriculture is a sensitive nerve for any nation because it is the main source of food that can never be dispensed with.

Therefore, for governments to encourage individuals and give them financial aid and provide them with seeds, fertilizers and pesticides at cheap prices to encourage them to plant.

Also, in countries where large areas are not invested in agriculture, the state should encourage farmers by giving them land for free and providing them with assistance.

No country in the world has become rich due to having a highly developed agriculture sector.
Countries become rich by developing high tech industries and investing in education and innovations.
The agriculture business is still important, but there's a reason why the farmers in most developed countries receive subsidies and various forms of government assistance. Without such assistance, the farmers will simply go bankrupt.
I don't think that agriculture can save any country in the world from a recession. Recession has nothing to do with a particular sector of the economy and everything to do with the demand for goods and services and the overall economic and financial activity.
Good luck keeping your tomato farm alive, when the demand for tomatoes goes down due to the recession.

Agriculture is indeed a good job as long as you know how to do it properly and well. Because the results are always more useful for the public and can also be used to save ourselves from poverty. In my neighborhood there are also many farmers who grow shallots, chilies, and long beans and most of them do manage to produce very satisfactory yields. And I think farming doesn't always have to be towards vegetables, but also towards fruits as long as those fruits are fruits that are very often consumed by many people around you.

Because fruits that are often consumed such as bananas, mangoes, apples, oranges and grapes also have a fairly good price so that a person can also save himself from poverty if the harvest is large and large. But if you are more skilled at farming to grow vegetables, I think you are also not wrong to do it now, especially if the vegetables you are planting are tomatoes which are basically consumed by everyone in this world. We wish you success with your farm mate.

To be honest, agriculture is a rich sector to work. It's an essential part of the economy, providing foods for everyone. However, in developing countries or just like in my country, farmers are the ones who are struggling financially instead of earning a lot being the the backbone and the provider of foods for the nation. Why? It's because of capitalism. Those big agricultural businesses always pressures the farmers to sell their crops for a low value so that they will buy it. If they won't agree, those crops will be wasted. So they usually end up selling their crops for a small value and those capitalist will sell them in the market for a very much higher price.
Compared to what I heard about developed countries like in Japan, farmers earn a lot there. I've heard a lot about my fellow citizens wanting to work as a farmer in Japan because it's more worth it than becoming a farmer here in my country. So for me, only those who will succeed in agriculture are those middlemen but not the farmers themselves. Also about saving the country, I'm not sure about that. My country has a big percentage of agriculture yet there's no improvement because they don't give much importance to it.

Agriculture is a business which has a lot risks, it could make all of your effort, money and time you invested become useless.

Let's assume you're know how to start, to grow, to harvest, the transportation, to sell etc and you're know there's no way for you to lose in this business. But you wouldn't know how save is your garden e.g. your neighbor might still your fruits and vegetables, someone want to burn or ruin your garden etc.

It's all fun and worth to do, until someone jealous with your life.

Agriculture plays an important role in the economic side of a country, but unfortunately not everyone can embark on this journey because of political instability, climate change, bad weather or simply the soil isn't just meant to farm in it.
But for those that can, this is a great undertaking...I remember saying a nice quote that read something like a country without a farmer is a hungry nation...which makes sense to some extent as they produce the materials needed for most of our processed foods, or organic foods etc

OP liking your farming journey, is irrigation a possibility were you are to ease amount of work that will be required here?

Agriculture is a sector that provides live with it's essential commodities. As long all livings are consumers of agricultural produces, agriculture would remain lucrative with every tendencies of high recognitions because it fuels the life we are on.

I accolade your inspiration and your hard work as it tends not just to boost your financial level but going to offer you a self consuming stocks provision.

No form of consumable plants is a minor so, fire up for advancement don't also fail to consult for advices.

Agricultural products are vital commodities in any country, the government takes many policies and an active role to support its sustainability which gradually becomes the basic needs of farmers, or in other words "dependency".
On the other hand, this is a weakness in the agricultural sector, where, for example, during an economic recession, government support for this sector decreases which can also cause farmer productivity to decline. It was concluded that the agricultural sector is also not sufficiently resistant to difficult economic conditions at a certain level.

This point of view is correct if agricultural production will alone fulfill the needs of the state and that the state can suffice with agricultural production to achieve self-sufficiency without taking into account the importance of producing surpluses.
Almost no country can rely entirely on agriculture because the state needs industry and services sectors, which is what imposes entering into foreign relations to obtain those products that it does not possess. Also, the geographical location of many countries prevents them from relying on agriculture, such as Taiwan.
To believe that the economic fabric of any country must be diversified in order to achieve the required financial balance.

Currently developing countries are building their economic development one of them in agriculture, those who have large land have created agricultural production using vertical methods and the results they get are indeed very high, so their ordinary farmers are very lagging behind in the way they use today, so all their farms must use new ways so that their results can get big profits, Because agricultural investment is the path to success.

Farming can be an important factor in reducing the impact of an economic recession, but it cannot completely save us from recession. But on the other hand, sustainable and productive agriculture can meet food needs and this will reduce our dependence on imported food and reduce poverty rates, especially in rural areas. While on the other hand it is also important to note that farming alone cannot solve all the problems that arise during a recession. In order to overcome the recession as a whole, holistic and comprehensive policy measures are needed including economic stimulus, policy reform and support for the affected economic sectors. It is very difficult for us to be able to save the country from the effects of the overall recession, but farming can save us a little from economic problems.

I am in no position to start talking about what agriculture can solve in the country because I am from a country where there are millions of farmers around each states and yet poverty is souring high, as if agriculture can really save a country from recession, you are wrong brother.

Which countries aren't into agriculture? Do you know how many countries are suffering even with mass agriculture knowledge? It's not enough to get rid of poverty from a country, if not all countries will be full of happy people and food won't be a problem.

But the cost of even buying those food is high, the fact is we can't all be a farmer, that will cause some instability.

Agriculture is said to be the lifeblood of a country's economic system. A country which does not have an agricultural system but is directly dependent on other countries if for some reason other countries stop all agricultural activities in those countries then that country is completely lost. Therefore, the government of every country gives the most importance to agriculture. If the farmer lives, the country lives. Because if the farmer's yield is not good, then there is a huge food crisis in the country in that season, which requires the export of food from foreign countries to meet the crisis, which has a bad effect on the country's economy. Therefore, the better the agricultural system of the country, the better the economic system of the country. Agriculture is the backbone of a country.

If we are a farmer using agricultural methods then the results we get will definitely be satisfying, and so far many farmers who are successful by planting several hectares of plants that do have great demand in their market can always get high profits, but they have used special ways so that the results can be maximized, one of which is tomato plants as you have explained it is a basic need that is always in demand by every consumer, And some other crops such as corn, wheat and rice are crops that are always needed.

You have great ideals OP, everything starts small and you've done it, it's great.
You can supply goods at low prices if there is a spike in prices due to a recession in your country, making yourself a contributor to the supply of people's commodity needs is a hero.

What's more, you already have poultry and pig farms, which are really needed for the nutritional needs of the community and the main thing is your community, and you can also make pig or poultry manure as organic fertilizer for your agriculture, you have a rotating business ecosystem for your agribusiness. Friend.

If I had expertise in farming and animal husbandry maybe I would do it like you instead of living completely dependent on the financial investment world. ::)

Your enthusiasm with this farming project is inspiring! Good luck!

At same time I have to be realistic, because the farmer job demands a lot of time and effort for low profits after all, if you are a small producer without a vast land under your possession and machinery. The truth is that big farmers make huge profit exporting the best portion of their productions to foreigner countries, with low effort, since they have harvesters and tractors with every imaginable kinds of implements.

The familiar agriculture is a bad joke spread by the media and by social influencers, since people are likely to pass their entire lives on this business without seeing real financial upgrades along the time, exchaning 6 for half a dozen on every harvests.

What if you combine investing in tomatoes and bitcoin? Sell your farm-grown tomatoes for btc, or convert the local currency you get from selling tomatoes for BTC. Not only can agriculture save you from a recession, but bitcoin as well. By combining both of these things, you can get a double benefit. ;)

In general, what does a post about tomatoes on a forum about crypto currencies do? Even in the economics section. It seems to me that the author should have connected this topic with cryptocurrencies, for greater persuasiveness. Actually, above I did it for him. :)

Nice job OP, I appreciate your zeal and love for agro business. An ocean starts with a drop of water and if you take your farm serious,you will benefit from it in the long run. At least now you can be able to fend yourself through your agricultural produce and also use the funds from it to do something important. In my place,some people think that agriculture is a business for the old and illiterate because the fail to see the benefits in agriculture. I am into fishery, I have an earth pond and when it is time for me to harvest my fishes,I make more than expect from the fishes that I seek. Sometimes,the market women calls me to book down so that they will select first before anybody. I wish you the best in your business. Agriculture is the backbone to almost all countries economy.
You are right mate, OP can invest some fraction of his profit into bitcoin and hodli for long so that he can benefit from both business.

If a country has the ability to be independent in food production, it can take advantage of the export potential associated with agriculture to generate revenue and improve its economic situation.

Conversely, if a country's agricultural production does not reach a level sufficient to meet the food needs of its population, that country may have to depend on food imports from other countries, creating pressure on food production. force on a country's foreign exchange and financial reserves We can see that many countries that do not develop agriculture properly often have to buy food from other countries at higher prices, causing financial difficulties and affecting food security.

Food security is one of the most important part in any country. Food security pays a vita role because the poor section of society is more insecure. With this section of society there is no backup plan with them. For poor section of society its enough for them to fulfill basic needs. When we compare poor section with above poverty line then they don't have to face when drought, flood, failure of crops, etc happen in country but poor section of society really get affect. That's why its very important to while growing vegetables or crops for themselves they must have to shift their focus on business as well it make them independent, also helps on country's economy.

This was a way to get out for my nation about 3 decades or so ago. I know that we are not living in the same world as we lived 30 years ago, but it was a great story that was thought to us as kids back when it was happening, like showed us how we are surviving even while it was happening.

The method was that the government stopped taking ANY tax at all from agriculture, it could be crops and farming and all, it could be cows and sheep or whatever. That tyep of business was fully untaxed, just zero tax whatsoever, they can make a million dollars and still wouldn't pay a single tax. So what happened?

A lot of farmers got rich of course, but also a lot of rich people started farms to put their money into farms instead of pay taxes with their money, and this resulted with everything being super cheap, and all the extra went to other nations and made us profit that way too. We were pretty powerful back then, but we stopped and now we can't afford anything.

I don't have much knowledge about agriculture. Slowly the trend transition is happening around the world. As a part in my country in recent years the importance given for agriculture is good. Not from the government, but from the common people like you and me. Many people who worked for corporate firms as well as worked abroad with good pay left their jobs and started to focus on agriculture and get adopted to Village lifestyle looking for peace of mind. Through this they're happy as well as they earn, some were earning same as they earned earlier from their day job. It is true when a country is rich in agriculture, the growth of the country won't gets disturbed at any worst economic situation around the world.

And that's how agriculture can save a country from recession, agriculture is very important as human being can't survive without food and those countries that are good with agriculture can have abundant of foodstuffs to export to other countries and generate revenue that'll help the economy of their country when they invest those money into others sectors of their country and also in agribusiness to enable they produced more products to export.

Practicing agriculture on a very large scale isn't an easy tasks for countries to achieve, before a country have enough to become an exporting country alot of investment most be done like having all the necessary machinery available to assist in the commerical farming.

Agriculture is a business, those countries you mentioned have big farmers in the countries and are the ones making it big, also have big money to fund their projects. If you don't have real sources you will be operating on subsistence level and only few Governments of most of these countries takes Agriculture very serious because it is not a space that you spend money, and it will be noticed instantly, they prefer to do capital projects that people will see, and its impact is directly felt and talked about but when it comes to Agriculture, it is a long term investment before people see its impact and I don't see how Agriculture alone can save a country from recession since there are a lot of factors responsible for recession

It really does, and this type of asset and business is one of the goals that I wanna achieve someday. As much as I want to start in our backyard, I've got a small place where I am living but soon even before my retirement, this is what I have already in mind. That's why those that have one and they're already earning from it are fortunate because this type of opportunity doesn't come to many. And that is because it's not easy as everyone is thinking. OP and others that are into this venture have studied very well on this and some probably started from scratch so, the risk is also there. While the contribution of the agriculture side to the economy and food security of a country is very much important, there are governments that don't give priority on this and that's one sad thing about my realization.  :-[

Agriculture is a business like any other and having a diversified economy including supporting lots of farmers is crucial. However scale and efficiency currently rule the market when it comes to farming, big firms have been mastering optimized farming solutions for decades if not centuries. All of the things you mention show that you have a solid grasp of the path that you need to take and ultimately you will need to maximize every inch of land that you've got in order to sell your products to vendors at the best price. One thing that often gets overlooked is your bargaining position and maybe if you're small scale then you need to go for a more specialist variety in order to corner a market that is too niche for bigger players.

While it's not a pleasing thing to look at, I think it's not gonna do so much against the growth of his tomatoes since Tomatoes aren't that high-maintenance when it comes to soil quality and such compared to other types of crops. Although it wouldn't hurt OP to do a little sweeping yeah lmao. Cleaning your area's just as important as keeping the nutrition on the soil after all. It's funny that you had to point it out though lmao.

Anyways, Agriculture is a good thing if done smartly. Otherwise it would be a waste of time and resources. Invest in proper tools, resources, knowledges, and varieties of crops and vegetables if you want a sustainable farm since different crops take up varying amounts of nutrients in the land, and if you abuse the land's resources it's going to dry it up and will render it unable to produce crops anymore.

Yes having that kind of business is good it is actually a good investment but the thing is here in our country the amount of land that can be use in agriculture is quiet high and it is not easy too afford, also rich people bought agricultural lands to make it as a subdivision here in our country, that is one the reason why our goods prices increase and are not affordable anymore. If govt will help with this, it could be beneficial for all and it could be good for import and export that will add and enhance the economic status of a country during this time of inflation.

Those plastics near the wall could be easily gathered and removed, so they wouldn't decompose there within time, what can be really problematic if they fragment in minor parts. On the other hand, construction debris aren't a big issue and can be almost impossible to be removed, due to the past history of the allotment. If you keep digging you won't stop finding more and more debris buried there.

Although they can hurt a farmer working with bare hands on the terrain, they don't prejudice the crops in anyways. That is why it's important to always use reinforced gloves and boots when working on the allotment.

By pointing to agriculture, fishiries, hubandries will greatly help during recession.  The most problematic during recession is not be able to put food on the table because of the high price of the commodities and at the same time lacking the fund to buy them.  With bountiful harvest and lots of food supply, just like the law of supply and demand, foods will be cheaper.  With cheaper food, will somehow solve the one problem that is caused by recession since many will be losing their jobs and with cheaper food, these people who lost their jobs can extend their funds to last longer since they are buying food at a discount.

That can also indicate that the farm belong to another person, and he snapped it and claim to own it. That is by the way, normally farm is very good investment, and op you would related this farm business to bitcoin, either you used your bitcoin to invest in it because of food shortage or you are planning to use the money that will be getting from the farm to invest on bitcoin. And idea would have been better. There is always food in farming so recession is minimal, and poor people always survive from farming. My country, government can provide enabling environment for farmers. Bandicts are killing the farmers so people are afraid to farm.

Are we in the first phase of economic thinking in the world?. Man the humanity has surprase that phase that you are talking about a lot of  years/ centuries ago.

The agricultural phase its the bottom of the piramid, yes its a necesary one ,and it can make you wealthy or non reliable in others food, but for economic grow you need more.

Do you know the industrial revolution was that change? From a most agricultural society/economy to a new industrial in cities and with that a whole new economics.

Agriculture is a really good thing that most people in this generation tend to neglect a lot. In my country, the government is hardly putting in any efforts to encourage people to participate in agriculture, and it's quite bad, because there are a lot of things that we can cultivate ourselves, but we end up importing them, which is not good for the economy.

Investments carry risks and there's no single investment alone that can guarantee anyone's 100% chance to escape from poverty this includes Bitcoin, gold, stock, bond, and real estate investment. Do you know how many people invested in agriculture but made a loss in the end due to some unforeseen issue like a natural disaster?

This is just a very small farm in which the produce would only be enough for family consumption, i don't see how Bitcoin can be used here. What is planted is definitely bought with fiat and i don't think the harvest is for sale, even if they are, do you think the next thing has to be buying Bitcoin with the money from the sale?
Poor people can't really survive on farming because they can't grow all that they consume. The cost of acquiring a land for farming is also expensive, thus the best some of them can get is a small farm in their backyard that can't really produce much. The point is that to survive on farming is expensive and isn't for the poor.

In my opinion, agriculture is the most important industry of all the fields in this world, but it doesn't seem to get much attention, and people just go after more modern things.  i agree, many governments are neglecting agriculture, they are discouraging and giving preferential policies to support people to maintain their country's agriculture. 
Where I live, many people gradually leave agriculture to find new fields because agriculture does not bring them significant profits.  this is sad, but it's their decision because they have their own lives too, if that job doesn't help them survive, they need to find a new job.

From the creation of the world agriculture is the only industry that sustain man to this extent. Without agriculture man would have been forgotten. But in the present days, agriculture is not meant for business purposes but for family purpose. What you will produce will enough for other people to buy but you can use it for the family to eat at a period of time.

The development of agriculture in any country should be encouraged by the state. However, it may not develop successfully in all countries. It depends largely on the climate, and on the fertility of the soil, its condition, and, more recently, on climate change in a particular region. But in any case, the government should take stimulating measures for it to develop. After all, according to forecasts, in the future with food, humanity may have problems.

I'm glad to have people like you here on this forum. I'm always available to learn more from people. All possible suggestions are welcome. What are those things you need to know about my life base?


Agriculture may not be a general solution to recession but it's really can help to reduce the effects of recession among the society. Food is highly important to mankind and raw materials to industries. If this are produced at high rate in the country, it can go a long way to improve the countries economy.

   Indeed the impact of agriculture can not be over emphasized hence it's  role of sustainability is visible globally.  Any society that ignores the source of food is directly heading towards hunger and scarcity because humans need food to sustain.
   Worthy of note, the primitive era explains it all the importance of agriculture, you will agree with me that during that era when there was no industries and machines for processing agricultural produce individuals were still sustained through trade by barter and people with vast agricultural extension gained wealth and fame through it.
   Unfortunately, some society leaders around the world has neglected the  tremendous wealth agriculture can generate within a short time. Most 3rd world are ceaselessly running into debt with other western nation because it's govt choose to neglect agriculture as a food and wealth bank which ought to be sustainable to them.
 My conclusion is that the level of attention given to agricultural sector  by a govt determines if such society will escape a reoccurring recession or not.

The problem is that not every state encourages the free development of agriculture. There is often a desire to impose a certain plan (remember the example of corn growing in Siberia). And this plan is not always constructive. And artificial food is now taking over the world more and more.

Also, the amount of harvested crop depends on the quality of the fertilizer and the amount of its use. For the food security of the country, factories are needed that produce fertilizers sufficient for its needs. If a country does not have factories, then people can use animal waste, as in ancient times, because they produce ammonia. And if world famine comes, it's worth remembering.

Lol, you slow I down there Stompix but, if I were to be a little more on OP’s side, I’ll say Op meant at the point of land preparation and that has got to have been weeks before this photograph was taken but still, plastics are some of the most dangerous materials to leave lying around. They take just too long to disintegrate and could be around longer than we would leave.

It’s a good farming system you’ve got in place, creating rigs to take care of erosion and ensure excess water is channelled out.
Going into a more perishable food crop like tomatoes, sure you’ve got market ready for it and your preservation method is archiving the period you need to have them in stock.

Either way, it’s a nice one you’ve got going on. Food is a can’t do without and that makes it a good business through all times.

Even if you forget country, agriculture helps one to feed oneself/family, that's enough positive for me.

The most important need for human life is food, and it can be said that 80% of food sources are agriculture, as long as we can produce their own food sources, it will not be a problem if inflation or recession occurs, and most who have their own food sources are rural people so they are more peaceful compared to city people.

Not all countries in the world are rich with the agriculture natural facilities. Those countries where the weather favours the agriculture , they already use their agriculture products to export and make good revenue for the country.  

In the modern day I guess the investment in bitcoin is one of the good option to save a country from recession. Since there is no inflation in the bitcoin I guess this maybe the best option provided the government has no objection on using it.

but in reality the farmers do not have the prosperity of life, which means they should be the core of a state life. Of course there is a wrong system that must be corrected, so that farmers can prosper like their plants. although bitcoin is protected from inflation, but it is not right for now in taking part, related to regulation from the government. actually with bitcoin it will be easier to carry out transactions on the export or import of agricultural materials

I also agree with you, because the country where I live, has always been a country, with a very prosperous agricultural sector and many people who are engaged in agriculture.

I have also felt that agriculture can indeed ease a bit recession. I will take an example when the covid 19 virus outbreak is sweeping around the world. At that time the impact of the Covid 19 outbreak was being felt by almost all countries in the world, including in my country. But even so, what I experienced and I feel. At that time, from a financial point of view, you could say I didn't have a lot of it. But when it comes to food staples, at that time I had a lot of stock. Because in my place, the majority of people own agricultural land in the fields of rice fields and plantations, including my extended family. That way it is very easy to get basic food ingredients, such as rice (rice) and vegetables. Because at that time my extended family, especially my parents were farmers since they were young. Therefore, for food at that time I wasn't too worried. Because I also have paddy fields and gardens given or inherited from my parents, and the results are very enough for my daily food.

And it's not just me who feels this way, but many of my neighbors also feel the same way. Even when the epidemic was getting worse, at my place, there were still people who could build quite large houses. So in conclusion, agriculture can indeed alleviate a recession. Because the agricultural sector certainly produces food staples such as rice (rice) and vegetables. Even though during the recession the price of rice and vegetables was not too expensive, no one even wanted to buy them. But all of that can be consumed and used as a stock of food raw materials.

Precisely, I have personal experience of that, because I hail from a village. We had pretty much null effect even during corona lockdown, when I heard stories from urban people, I was kind of surprised.


El Salvador already did that, yes btc don't have inflation but it does have high ups and downs.

Agriculture is one of the important sectors in a country because everyone takes food sources from there as a fulfillment of life. When agricultural resources are scarce and out of control, there will be price chaos caused by scarcity and this is where a recession occurs which results in price volatility in the market. Agriculture can also encourage a person to reach a stage of better financial ability, even though it will not make people rich, agriculture can also create jobs, generate individual income and ensure stable food availability in the market.

If you care about this sector then I believe there is great potential for agriculture to be developed and you will provide the right steps for the people closest to you as daily workers. If this kind of agriculture is only developed for small scale needs, then the impact will end only for the people around you. The more people who care about agriculture, the better the growth in this sector, because after all agriculture is something very important.

Agriculture is one of the most valuable sectors of the economy. Humans must depend on agriculture to survive because if there is no farmer in the world there is no agriculture then humans cannot survive because all the food that humans consume every day to survive comes directly from the farmer so there is no chance of neglecting agriculture or the farmer. 

Although the world is very modern, today the agricultural system has not been touched so much, still the people in the rural areas do the agricultural work according to the ancient principles besides plowing with cows. If the government of every country gives more importance to agriculture and suggests the use of advanced technology to improve agriculture, farmers will be more motivated and get more yield with less effort. 

So agriculture and farmers should be given utmost importance.

It is important not only to sell for profit, it is important to buy even less from other countries.
 
And must be remembered that each country must take care of its own food security. You need to be able to grow food in any climate, but the most important thing is that it be for your population. And if all of a sudden, if there is a famine in the world, your country will survive, because the government has taken the right steps in advance in the food security of the country.

My country is known as an agricultural country. However, in reality, there is still a lot of poverty here. This cannot be blamed because indeed this condition has been going on for a very long time, both the government and the people have also tried. But it really doesn't seem like it's over.
As for agriculture, yes it is. However, sometimes the discrepancy between expectations between the costs incurred and the yields causes many farmers to suffer big losses, even experiencing heartbreaking crop failures. This is indeed one of the risks of doing business in agriculture. Unfortunately, nowadays not many young people want to optimize themselves in this field and develop it with the latest strategies to optimize agricultural output, because for them, working in an office is the dream of many young people. Well, but on the other hand, agriculture is a field that always has to exist and always looks forward to the results, because it relates to the food needs of all people, both in that country and imported to other countries.

Congratulations on your super choice for embarking on the Agricultural route towards the generation of a steady source of income for you and the welfare of your family. Thus, joining other enthusiastic farmers in your country to collectively contribute to your country's economic growth.

Agriculture is a good venture and entrepreneurial choice that can never go into extinction as food is a foremost necessity for daily living. However, while the path of Agriculture may be a good investment route, I believe government can also contribute efficiently to Agriculture in Africa if farmers must generate greater yields.

Agriculture is hard to work and expensive to run,  especially if you are considering commercial farming. But with advanced farming machinery, farmers can get more yields with lesser farm stress. If loans can be provided to farmers to have access to these machineries, I think the Agricultural path will be ventured into by many young people around the world, especially in Africa.

Before the introduction of cryptocurrency and some of the advanced digital technology, we have been involved in the practice of agriculture a good farming have been the major source of income to most countries around the world even before the oil boom, if a country can go into production in full for agricultural produce, they will have to be independent on so many things from the other countries because they have their GDP well enough and being sustainable through the labour output they give out in farming and also export excess out of the country, these could help a country to be self dependent than waiting on the developed nations to determine how they should run their internal economy.

A country that produces its own food and has enough to export can hardly be defeated by war, famine, disease outbreak.
It is just the fact, and the countries who are experiencing the recession in toll have more reliance on foreign produce.
Kenya is undergoing a major riot because of this same recession that has seen interest rate hike to 8%, if such a country were more agriculturally inclined, I don't think any hungry individual would raise a placard to riot against being overly fed.
More countries need to consider agriculture mostly mechanized and decentralized platforms which bothers on opportunities of cryptocurrency, as solutions to economic hardship brought about by over reliance on government jobs/contracts/employments and imports of foreign produce as food source.

Because we all know how our government interacts with its population, I believe this type of issue is caused by farmers. Therefore, what were farmers to do once they realized how inactive their government was when it came to agriculture? I had no expectations of anyone. However, prior to beginning a farm, you are not required to rely on anyone. And truly, in my opinion, every farmer who wishes to reap the benefits of his labor must be prepared.

However, what affects the majority of farmers today is that it is difficult to find small farmland; instead, they need large land in order to make more money, but what I can call this is nothing but greed; the fact is that the majority of these people seeking out large farmland do not have enough resources to take care of it, so you will see them in the end not enjoying what they have planted because there are not many funds to take care of it, and instead of letting it grow, they will now start selling it and pay back the money they borrowed.

If you are a business man and would to invest in agriculture it's ideal because you can earn at the same time have a sense help with the environment with the cycle of giving oxygen due to help of the plants, another thing here is some of them afraid to have this because of the climate change and the natural occurrence for example, the storm that can damage the plants, a sinkhole that can create a hole to your land and one of the common is the attacks of the insects there's a lot but you are prepared for this you don't need to worry about too much.
Another thing this could depend on the owner of the farmer and the current economic state somehow if the plant was in demand there's a lot of supply needed that makes you profitable

Farming has been encouraged in some countries that have the potential of growing vegies and other crops. In our country, the government put a huge budget helping the agricultural sector to grow and become productive and the results are great and therefore, we could really say that it has a huge impact on the economic flows of the country and lowers the price of our basic necessities. But this is not enough to skip from recessions, though it was a helping factor to increase income but because of corruption, we can't significantly see it changing, sadly we even see it worse.

When a country is able to fulfill its important need, automatically the government is able to focus much on more productive activities. This makes the economy of the government to be progressive than declining over time. Every government have got the ability to fulfill their country's food needs by their country people. It doesn't happen overnight, may take little time, but it is possible and a healthy thing in all means.

Basic human needs are food and drink, it is only natural that countries that still rely on agriculture such as Vietnam, Thailand, and many South American countries can survive when an economic recession occurs, and the other side is that agricultural prices will be more expensive because many countries are trying to become industrialized countries and leave farming system.

I think for now what you have done by carrying out mitigation efforts in the world of agriculture is a good step and it is an independent effort that is highly expected by governments around the world in terms of food security readiness. I myself also suggest to my garden to plant Sorghum. Sorghum Farm which has a high carbohydrate content which can also replace wheat, rice and corn if a drought occurs at any time. It hasn't arrived yet, but for preparation I think there should be too.

Very good. This will really help the country. Agriculture is indeed a source of food for people's lives. The agricultural sector has a very important role in the country. Not only for food but also as employment for the community to earn income. Agricultural work sounds trivial even though agriculture is an extraordinary thing that can advance the country's economy.

Food is an essential substance in our life. This is the only thing that will be needed till the day we die. Food supply plays a great role in the economy. High food prices will always lead to an unstable economy. Food consumption is the largest part that impacts the economy. Does not matter if you are poor or rich, to survive, you will need food. By consuming food, the whole nation takes a part in the economic growth. Also if your country is making more than enough food for the whole nation, it can export those extra food to other countries in order to grow the economy.

Farming own food is the key to the fight against inflation. As it is an essential substance, if we make our own, we won't have to spend more to buy them. Covid has taught us that very clearly. Help yourself and in that process, you will help others. Great work OP. As this is your small start hopefully, you will be able to grow it much bigger in the future. Best of luck to you.

Is sorghum more drought tolerant than wheat or corn? Ideally, it will have several fields, and plant all these crops so that it is possible to do crop exchange so that the land does not get tired of the same crop every season. But as for small plots of land, they will not be able to somehow affect the entire region, it will probably have a local impact on your community, and for global tasks you need much more land.

Food is the important part of our life,even though the contribution of the Agriculture in the GDP of most of the country is only 40-50 percentage.We can survive without the food and if the food scarcity comes,the entire economy will be collapsed.The sixty percentage of economy May leads to spend for the food scarcity.The Covid had teach us many things,the most important one is need to hold some savings for the future.Many low middle class people had suffered for the food in Covid to survive is hidden truth.

Well our new president here in our country is now focus on agriculture products, maybe he has a thoughts that agricultural products has a very big effects on the economy' imagine if the country will import rice from other country just to make the supply enough, it is very discouraging when you know you can plant it in your own country because of its good weather and good places for rice field and other agricultural products for me agriculture  is very important because without agricultural products people will surely suffer a very high price of it.

If governments realized how important agriculture is instead of creating more urbanism, everything would be very different, it would open up less scarcity of resources, and it would not be so expensive to access food since it would be produced by society itself... and of course this would influence the level of poverty in the country, in a good way, since it would open up the need to find workers to be able to treat the land correctly if this activity is to be taken to an industrial level... I can put An example of a country that I do not consider is taking advantage of its wealth correctly, and it is Venezuela, this territory has lands ready to bear fruit, but they focus on the export of oil to survive without paying attention to others alternatives that could help the national economy.
However, I believe that people should become aware of themselves, as you are doing, and not depend so much on what the government will do to improve their scarcity situation in the country, so start planting and creating your own garden is a step that benefits individually, because you will no longer have to worry if you will eat or not for money.

Agriculture is commended by a good number of people because of its power to feed the nation, but only a few embark on farming crops or livestock. As a,toddler we were introduced in school about Agriculture; cultivation, shifting cultivation, irrigation etc. Similar to any business, Agriculture requires experience and knowledge for a farmer to excel and yield profits or harvest good produce. I've all read people's happiness and important contribution to agriculture, but I'm not equipped enough to venture into agriculture, similar to many other people. Nobody wants to invest into agriculture and not harvest good produce, that's why it looks like a good number of people don't Farm. Government give agric loans to farmers, they are doing their best to sustain food in the country, yet they forget to fix roads that lead to farm, reduce the price of fuel, and employ labor. These will help minimize the high cost of agricultural produces, with good roads the goods will be transported easily and cheap fuel will not only be effective for the vehicle it'll also be used on the machines used in farming.

This is Why Agriculture Matters. If you look at it, the threat of a food recession is not only happening in the developed countries of the world, but also in developing countries and the agricultural sector is one of the solutions. Yes. what is needed here is to take advantage of unused land, if any, to plant several types of plants that have economic value because they become an additional source of livelihood, supply food, contribute greatly to state revenues and so on.

Why I recommend this: Yes, Sorghum is known as a plant variety that is tolerant of abiotic stress, especially drought and hot weather. True, in practice for 1 ha of land requires about 10 kg of seeds with a minimum spacing of 50 cm x 20 cm and a small water requirement. If I'm not mistaken, it's around 150-200 mm/season (half the water needed for corn, one third for sugarcane juice). limited and supported food security programs.

It reminds me of a certain report about countries in Africa that are experiencing food shortages, it is clear that in order to make the current progress, it is first necessary to ensure adequate food supply, and there are many leading reasons why they cannot manage on their own and need more outside help. Even in the current context when the issue of inflation and commodity prices increase, the fact that agriculture provides our main food is always a factor that is considered very important in many historical or future periods. And I understand the story of countries taking this seriously so that it doesn't lead to the same undesirable things as in the past about hunger.

For wheel develop country this agricultural aspect will be their main problem since they don't have enough lands to plant and sustain the needs of their constituents that's why when recession came or food shortages they will be the one get affected to much on it. Those agricultural countries should not follow what western or other nation did where they didn't prioritize their Agriculture since they will be save by this especially if they maximize their resources and generate more yield and they will be safe for any upcoming food shortages that might come to other countries.

YES!, agriculture has a very strong hold in rescuing a county from recession. It offers an opportunity for economic revival. It provides a solid foundation for self sustainability, it fuels job creation, from small farm holders to agribusiness enterprises. The entire agricultural value chain creates employment opportunities. Agriculture also acts as a catalyst for economic growth beyond its own boundaries. Agricultural products, both raw and processed, serve as valuable exports, bringing in foreign exchange and strengthening the trade balance.
I must commend you for your taking a step into Agriculture. It may seem small but don’t give up. Give it your best shot and see how it’s gonna yield you good profit in the long run.

Being rich in agriculture products eliminates your dependency on other countries. You are rich in food then you can  survive recession since you have enough to feed your country. These days developed countries are focusing more on technology related products that gives more profit and requires less effort. That's not the case with agriculture, since you have to work harder to get profit. China for instance import rice from India to save his water reserves.

When a country becomes fully self-sufficient in agriculture, its dependence on imports will continue to decrease. As a result, the country can easily get rid of the effects of financial recession. Not only that, there is a great opportunity to earn money as an exporter. Therefore, the government of each country has a different focus on agriculture in their country. When a country achieves perfection in agriculture it will move towards prosperity.

Small things will become bigger and agriculture is an important source of meeting the needs of human life.

Talking about agriculture broadly is not limited to tomatoes because agriculture covers all the needs of human life which are not limited to vegetables. What you do can actually have an impact on the need for processed tomatoes for various needs, every country needs tomatoes as a raw material for making sauces and others. If you can cultivate properly and can be increased bigger then the source of income from tomatoes can also bring you to a stage of better financial capability.

In my country there are many tomato farmer that can send their children to university and many tomato farmers are also able to provide a better life for their families, because tomatoes are also an important part of several kitchen ingredients that are used every day to make food

Mostly in the first-world countries, there is not enough land to carry out wide commercial agriculture investment, but in the third-world countries, if the government of such a country or even NGOs decides to take agriculture and investment seriously, they will likely not experience recession like you said. But the problem is that in most of those countries that have enough land space, only a few people are concerned with agricultural investment. Food is the primary source of human survival, and if a country is good at producing commercial agricultural products, they can export them to other countries, which can contribute to generating revenue for the country and help build their economic system.  OP, although the land which you cultivated your tomatoes is not looking so good, but I commend you effort. I whish to ask, did you do some soil text for identificatuon of heavy metal or other harmful element?

A country that depends on agriculture can have a good economy especially in the aspect of raw materials for export. There are many countries that solely depend in agriculture export and they are doing well even though they don't have the man power for the kind of technology that is required to create technological tools and equipments for export. Countries like China are able to develop there economy based on raw materials and technological aspect to the standard it is today and if more countries are able to  do the same, things is going to be good and better with more competition for customers making the price of goods to be lesser for importation or exportation.

I get that you're trying to sell something right here, and in some parts of Africa the agriculture path may have been viable/already being implemented if not something that the industry has already implemented a while ago, but you gotta consider their situation as well that led to that dilemma. Perhaps the land isn't that nurturing? Perhaps the fact that a large part of the country/continent is being exploited by White-American led companies for precious metals and diamonds poisoned the land/diverted the manpower which is supposed to be for farming? There's a lot of things that are at play here beyond the notion that "they are not using the agriculture method to feed themselves". Surely they must have thought of that already, after all Africa boasts some of the smartest people on the planet. It's all a matter of circumstances really in my opinion.

True, and it is proven that countries that still make agriculture their main economic activity are not affected by the world economic recession, industrialized countries such as the USA, Europe and others are very dependent on many things, for example if there is an increase in oil prices it can create serious problems, besides that the need for human life is agriculture so that it will become a high-value commodity in the future.

Yes. like the old people in my country. the dominant livelihood is farming, in this case planting rice, always saves part of the crop for the food needs of the family. Even if the price of rice rises, this will not be a major problem because they already have a buffer stock of rice that has been stored for 1 year's needs and is sufficient.

I think it's not a job if you own the farm but it's more like a hobby and it can be profitable if you decide to sell your crops. There are still jobs out there related to agriculture which you can apply and work for. There were many farmers on my place but they are still poor. Maybe these people are not educated enough, especially in terms of finances. Yes, farming is wide and not only limited to veggies.

I think animals are also covered with it. It's always better to start what we are planning immediately. It could be that we will start planning now and then do the move tomorrow or two. Farming takes time to see the results so we should act quickly.

OP you are funny, you talk about agriculture as if it's something new, don't you know that before you are born this agriculture of a thing was present? If it's the solution to everything we won't come into this world full of poverty and hunger.

Imagine sowing 10 plots of land and some barbarians invade your land and burn all your crops and kidnap many women from your land, is that not the end to your cultivation? Is agriculture the tool to solve such problem? I am just going back into the books of history.

There are many things you aren't adding to your point, Agriculture can bring food to your table if you are good at it, but try to plant on millions of acres in your country first to feed the multitudes, you will see that some things are not adding up.

Like I have always tell my younger ones, to be a leader is not easy and politics is stealing from one group of people and feeding them to another group of people.

I understand the position of each different country makes them have benefits that can be labeled with what they want, as in the case you mentioned buying Chinese rice with India, this is completely yes, but in what I'm talking about poor countries, the story doesn't have the potential to grow in a fair way relative to the overall global level of development. They need a lot of factors to help them get out of the food shortage before they can have the health to learn, just like in some other parts of the world that I've heard have very high agricultural output as large as Southeast Asia, they were also colonized countries in the past, and agriculture is the main area that helps them to progress gradually and to keep up with the pace of change in society.

Agriculture can lift out some countries that are having financial crisis to something new, but the thing is that many countries hardly pay much attention to agriculture, like in some African countries they don't believe agriculture have a way of solving problems or even developing the country to a standard that some European countries can come and do businesses of different kind. No matter how local it might be I see agriculture as a means of change, but the problem there is that the government ain't supportive of that movement that's why it looks like agriculture is for only the poor in some part of Africa, like where I'm from.

Everyone doesn't grow at the same rate or in the same way. Some nations face more challenges than others due of their geographical positioning, historical experiences, or limited resources. It's like a marathon where some folks start way back in the pack. No matter how fast they try to catch up, they never seem to be able to. Let's not give up hope, though. You're right that agriculture is crucial; some communities even managed to put it to good use during terrible times. Even though agriculture isn't a silver bullet, it plays a critical role. Education, infrastructure, and health care all require increased funding. It's a long way to go, and all nations should pitch in to support these places. A lot of people and organisations are trying to change that. Let's keep talking about this. Improving conditions begins with raising awareness

Toward food aid to Africa. I remember from my childhood (70-80 years of the last century), everyone helped African countries with food, it was normal and usual. As a child I believed in everything that was said. About 10 years ago I came back to this topic. I came back for a reason. I used to travel a lot, and of course - in African countries too. Next, I ask you to be pragmatic and without offense.
I will not name specific countries, I'm sure there are representatives of these countries here and they will be unpleasant that their country will be such information. Therefore, I will describe my observations and thoughts in general terms. The first thing that caught my eye is a very strongly developed habit of demanding food, and almost complete absence of the habit and desire to work.
The local population told me a lot of reasons why they do not want to work, but they are all excuses.
The main issues are 2:
1. I am absolutely sure that such assistance is a cover for very large, global-scale fraud with grain and other systemic foodstuffs.
2. This is why generation after generation is artificially created and raised to demand food. Instead of using the money that international funds allocate every year (which is a HUGE amount) to build large agricultural holdings, train the local population, give them WORK, and start growing crops in Africa that are so necessary for the inhabitants of African countries.

I realize that it is extremely difficult to grow crops in the Sahara, but Egypt somehow provides for itself, and moreover imports a lot of products to the world. Algeria and Libya also cultivate crops. These are the 3 countries that have a huge desert on their territory.   And most of the others are in much better conditions for agro.
If you look at a map of agricultural land in Africa, you will be very surprised - there is a LOT of it ! But for some reason nobody uses it for industrial agribusiness !

The government should make the people self reliant which will make them grow their necessary food crops. This surely helps with the growth of agriculture all around the country. Here governments need to be more productive. When a common man grows, surely it'll be pesticide free and healthy. Governments need to take steps on collecting the food that are excess after their needs. Storing it in right warehouse will help with export and the same could contribute something to the economy.

In the area where I live there is the term farmer groups facilitated by the government and they are given access to any needs in the process of planting vegetables and rice for market needs. But I don't see the potential for these groups to become independent after they are given assistance and instead they cannot continue the program after it ends. The government has provided many programs for agriculture, but very few foster groups have been able to develop and be able to continue these programs individually. Agriculture is no longer being encouraged by the younger generation in the area where I live and they tend to work in other sectors that are not related to agriculture, so that such an area of land becomes unproductive and is only used once for growing rice.

There must be education from an early age about agriculture so that the younger generation does not think that managing agriculture cannot provide great benefits in order to achieve financial freedom. Agriculture is a source of needs and there are good prospects in agriculture if it can be managed properly, the presence of the government to ensure the availability of raw materials from the planting process to harvest can help young people to enjoy farming again. Currently the government does have the program, but education is not going well, so there are limits for the younger generation to be directly involved in agriculture.

And why be dependent on the state for his help and subsequent dependency ?
Let me give you a good example. In my country (Ukraine), you probably know what the situation is, there is an excellent example of how a private owner created an agribusiness in conjunction with cryptocurrency. Investments are attracted from the population, in crypto, payment of dividends - also in crypto, everything is transparent and simple! And the business develops actively ! The entry threshold is from 1 dollar, any citizen of the world can invest, as well as receive dividends. At first I did not believe it myself, I studied the project for half a year, even went personally to see the work of agribusiness ... After that I became an investor :)
So - you should use all possible options, and not "sit on the neck of the state".

For familiarization:

Not everyone's destiny is the same and there are some people who do not have the income to create job opportunities in agribusiness, so that assistance from the government can help people who cannot afford to cultivate agribusiness. Fully relying on the government is not a solution, but this assistance really helps people who cannot afford to develop agricultural systems. Financial limitations can prevent people from developing their agribusiness potential and that's why they need help from them for the first steps.

When the options you convey can be used by some people or low-income people independently it will be much better. What I mean in general and for people who do not have specific funds to develop. I also don't really understand how the pattern is followed by people in your country, but all opportunities must be used so that people can increase their income to support their lives.

I agree absolutely that situations, opportunities vary from country to country, and from situation to situation.
I meant something different - constantly pulling "juices" from the state (read - from the budget and other people's taxes) may be comfortable, but it is not very right, provided that you are able to work. You should always try to find some options for development and earnings. It seems to me that even an attempt to unite a significant group of people with not very large incomes to share the land and get the effect of synergy is not a bad way.  At the same time, we are well aware that agricultural products will be the last thing that mankind will stop consuming, especially in countries that are not very rich.

I appreciate your thought regarding the issue. I personally believe which countries, that depend on agriculture will never go into recession. What I see as the reason for this in many countries the government has restricted the import of their delicate goods because there is dollar crisis. At that moment government give the most importance to food related imports among the basic needs. If a country is self-sufficient in agriculture, then I think all the problems caused by the financial recession at the international level cannot have any effect on that country. but if there is a shortage in agriculture, then the country cannot be saved from economic recession.

The purpose of what we want to discuss relates to the movement to facilitate agriculture which originates from individuals, groups or assistance from the government, farmer groups are only tasked with developing their potential in the agricultural sector and they do not need to think about capital or land. This idea is the same as what I conveyed in the previous post, that the presence of the government in my area has done extraordinary things to help small communities and there are also some people who share land and capital with independent farmer groups. The nature of it might be profit sharing or it depends on how the pattern gets better and most importantly farmers can get money to facilitate their family life.

Agricultural products are a necessity and if they can be facilitated properly then there is big hope in this sector to make people more independent in terms of looking for finances for their family needs. In addition to the availability of capital and the harvesting process must also be monitored properly, so that farmers are not confused in selling their crops to people who ask below the standard price.

That's right, what you're saying I think the OP is just conveying a general opinion. Possible. But the advice you convey to your child is very educational. Yes. If we as the people, if you want to vote, don't vote like that. and if you become a leader, don't image much. (sorry I don't talk about politics here) I'm just conveying the impact if we as the people make the wrong choice.

Governments in every country should look at this side of the farmers, that is, the price of unhusked rice is relatively stable while the prices of agricultural materials such as fertilizers, agricultural equipment, and especially agricultural machinery tend to increase from time to time. And the prices of other commodities besides agriculture, both goods, and services, tend to increase far beyond the increase in agricultural production.

So to maintain food security in a country, the Government needs to study more deeply what treatment is most correct and suitable for farmers, including subsidies and guarantees for health and education for children and their families. So that our farmers can be proud and comfortable working as farmers. If this is not the case, the profession of a farmer will be abandoned little by little because they will realize that they will not develop if they continue to work as a farmer. This will have a very significant impact on a country's food security. And this is not something that can be underestimated.

This should be the most prioritized by every country to save from recession. After all, the agricultural sector is what makes all of us able to live. But the problem now is that in my country there are very few young people who want to become farmers, due to limited land, and uncertain income, they prefer to be YouTubers, TikTok, and miners, selling online is more promising. This is because the government in my country does not fully care about the agricultural sector, farmers' lives are increasingly marginalized due to fertilizer subsidies that continue to be reduced while the prices of agricultural commodities are dropping, especially during the harvest season.

Yes, I apologize, I may have missed the main point of the thread.
But I wanted to say that it's not very right to wait for a solution only from the state. The state in a difficult situation really should provide support. But the population should be active and motivated to take an active part.
I just observed a couple of stories when people for some reason expected that the state will give them money, give them equipment, give them workers, in case of problems will pay everything including debts, and they will just own the business and get income :) Of course the picture is exaggerated, but roughly so :)
In any case - I wish everyone success, government support and building a quality business !

In near past many countries stopped investing into agriculture businesses. But I think they started to realize how bad it can turn out to be. When your economy gets bad agriculture will save your people from hunger. It will give nice boost to your overall local markets too. Individual agriculture businesses help people to not waste money on absurdly experience fruit/vegetable prices too. And when you produce something yourself it will definitely taste better.

Pretty dumb move.... Food, especially in today's world, where regular droughts, floods, climate change, etc. events have a negative impact on crop yields, and primarily agricultural products for the population. Everyone knows it, everyone understands it, and accordingly, the refusal of agribusiness is the way to total dependence on external suppliers. And this means either high prices or manipulation of consumers.

Many countries without fertile land, or having them in limited amounts, make maximum efforts to develop the agricultural sector.

Right? However, the funny thing is that some primarily agricultural countries are lacking the proper management and help from their governments to ensure that they are well taken care of. The budget for the agriculture sector from these countries are relatively lower compared to other sectors that I think are far less important. It's ironic how these countries which should be the ones to export agricultural products are now demanding for imports from other countries today.

Looks like India has banned rice exports, sparking fears of a global shortage: https://news.sky.com/story/some-will-go-hungry-some-will-starve-global-rice-shortages-feared-after-india-bans-exports-12925097

India's a large exporter of food so they're reducing their own revenue by cutting exports. There's not a lot of money to be made in food because of how easy it is to grow with modern technology, but when large exporters start controlling the market by restricting output, demand goes up.

Setting the economics aside, it's projected this will cause famine.

That's why the government's presence is very important and can help farmers in the process of planting and harvesting. The government provides subsidized fertilizers, agricultural tools that are easily accessible and ensures agricultural needs at much more stable prices, so that farmers do not find it difficult to ensure the needs needed from planting to harvest. The presence of the government is no less important in managing crop yields from farmers through related agencies that facilitate the agricultural sector, because the stability of goods has related agencies that control it and that is where the government's presence is very important.

This is to maintain price stability in the market because if the crops are purchased by unofficial distributors, they will hoard these agricultural resources, causing scarcity and causing prices to rise uncontrollably. This is where problems arise and can eventually lead to conditions of inflation and recession because domestic products are unstable and scarcity is caused by those who hoard agricultural produce.

The presence of the government is very important to ensure food security in every country, the government has access to the districts through related agencies and they must be able to function this to ensure that food sources are available in the market. The concept must be properly facilitated with regard to output and input, I also do not agree if the presence of the government is only as a provider of capital, but not to oversee the harvest process because if this is done the farmers will never be independent at any time.

That applies to people who don't have stable finances and government programs are indeed in facilities for people like this. So not all groups get assistance from the government and they have criteria that must be prioritized for assistance.

I certainly agree. Agriculture is one of the most important sector of our economy but they get the least support from the government. They have been seeking help from the government since then but the government are even taking advantage of our farmers buying their agriculture products at the very unreasonable price and huge businesses would sell them for a very high price while others are importing.
If the agriculture sector is getting enough support from the government, they can actually save the economy in the future and it will also lessen the suffering of the poorest of the poor sector who are struggling to survive because of lack of food.
If leaders could only value the effort and hardwork of farmers and agriculturist, I don't think famine would still be a big problem in the future.

The truth is bitter and that is exactly what you have summarise in some paragraph and evidence validated everything you discuss but the question that will remain unanswered is that how many people will be willing to farm, majority of urban people are more focus on a developed business and what they can do to remain within their county, they don't want to go to where there is land and develop city are congested with limited available spaces that even the human are still fighting to occupied and live comfortably, they don't want to come home.

Advance farming is great path to develop a country and individuality even financial statuses but this can be  done where there is abundant land( both corps and animals) and this is available in rural areas but the people living in those areas don't even have the knowledge about advanced farming or the resources to do this, if they have the resources they wouldn't be suffering on the local ways of farming that doesn't yield much at the end of the day.

The government is trying with rural areas but in my country, it's just as if they don't receive it because of the increase in corruption, nepotism and cheating, distribution doesn't go much to people that really need this resources to even farm and this is why the country suffers from hunger and increase in price of goods because of high demand and low supply.

I don't understand how? Agriculture is the lowest when it comes to contribution to the GDP. Also it's not that productive based on the land as well. I mean the percentage yield which manufacturing or service could provide on the same land will be much more than farming. Also for farming to make money you need to have growth in demand of agro products which also I don't see happening anytime soon. So please care to explain how exactly economically this could happen?

You are now talking not about support from the state, but about full-fledged influence on agribusiness.
On the one hand, I agree with you - in countries where there is a real problem of growing and providing the local population with food, state regulation and partial management, this is a necessary measure.
I also consider as an acceptable option - closer interaction with private agricultural companies, in crisis situations, when a private business has force majeure circumstances caused by external factors (war, natural disasters, terrorist attacks, ...), and these agricultural companies cannot "survive" on their own ".
In all other cases, the influence of the state, as a rule, negatively affects business (and we are talking about private agribusiness).

Countries that stopped investing in the economy made the worst decision because agriculture is what keeps the economy moving. Agriculture plays the most important role in maintaining the economic condition of a country. All the countries that give much importance to agriculture, meet their needs and export their agricultural products to different countries of the world. Countries that are not dependent on agriculture are usually directly dependent on other countries. If due to dependence on another country, diplomatic relations with that country deteriorate or import and export stop due to some other problem, think how bad the situation can be for a country dependent on another country. Government of every country should give utmost importance to farmers and agriculture.

I see your intention is good and I just hope you’ll achieve that in due time. However, having an agri business will certainly take a lot of your patience and understanding before you can say that your business becomes productive and profitable. And definitely, a lot of expenses as well so you can ensure it’s growth and it’s productivity in the making. So it can save one country from recession, but Im not certain how long it’ll last.

State intervention in agribusiness isn't the most popular topic for casual chit-chat, is it? The thing is, can we afford to completely rule out the role of government in ensuring food security? Look, I get it. Too much meddling from the government can stifle private businesses. But what happens when crisis strikes? Droughts, floods, pests... These aren't things the average farmer or private business can tackle solo. Yeah, sure, there's a risk of dependency on government support, but isn't there also a risk of total collapse without it? A balanced approach seems more sensible, where government plays a role but doesn't overshadow private enterprise. There's a middle ground in there somewhere, right?

True, agriculture is very important because the agricultural sector is a sector that supports the lives of all human beings. So every country should continue to develop this sector. Because agriculture also continues to contribute to the provision of functional food, agriculture continues to encourage a good level of health so that it can increase the country's productivity. And of course this sector can provide benefits for economic development, increase the income level of a country, and people's living standards increase as a result the level of state income so that people's living standards increase.

So, a country's policies need to advance agriculture, the government must be able to create agricultural product development so that it can create a higher surplus of empowerment. Apart from that there should be Agricultural Extension from the government, because in my opinion this is the right step in increasing agricultural production. So that farmers can prosper, the government really needs to pay serious attention. the point is the government's alignment with farmers, because agriculture is a source of food.

It wasn't that much to see with you but look, people never survive without farming. And even we know that it only contributed less to our economy but this also plays some key roles in saving many people from recession. In fact, many countries are investing and putting much allocation on agriculture as they know that it helps a lot to them. Of course, those who have no areas to use It might not be appreciated by other countries, but for a country that has a huge land area, it can be considered as their great asset to grow their economy.

Right indeed. Agribusiness has definitely a lot of advantage not only for the family that own it but even to those neighborhood that can also benefit it in times of huge production. While this can be a perfect business for a country not to fall from recession, but I just think this is still not enough. My country is certainly in agribusiness but still, as much as I can say, it’s still close to its economy downfall.

I always keep saying that government should be the buyer for a good amount of money, then government can sell it for either lower or higher depending on the season, but they should always be the buyer. Wouldn't that work? No need to regulate or partially manage, no need to keep interrupting.

Just let them do whatever they want with a set price government would get, if they can find a buyer for higher then they can sell it for that person, but at least farmers would know what the worst case situation and they can work according to that. If they fail, then they fail and that means something, but that doesn't mean that we are not going to end up with anything different, it is going to be pretty much basically the same situation.

         For those countries that do not have large areas, there is an option to use hydroponic installations. Today, this is no longer a rarity. There would be a desire to do something similar with the authorities. The investment required is not that big. Especially when there is a lot of sunshine in the country. This simplifies things even more.
         Therefore, there is no need to shield those states that have small territories. All this is already fixable with current farming technologies.

The country I live in is an agricultural country. About 70% of the people of our country are engaged in agriculture. Agriculture is said to be the backbone of our country's economy. Although our country is an agricultural dependent country, there is very little use of improved technology for agriculture. Most of the farmers in our country are still farming according to ancient farming principles. But recently the government of our country has taken several steps to improve agriculture. The government of our country thinks that if the farmer lives, the country will live, so the farmers are trained in various subjects and made experienced for farming. Agriculture has kept the economic condition of our country alive till date.

This is something that a lot of countries that depends on agriculture should do. It is very vital for a government to ensure that the agriculture sector and farmers are well taken care of as they play a vital rile in the economic condition of a country. Aside from ensuring that there is something to eat, agriculture ensures that a country is able to produce for its people and even export products that helps a country's economy.

Agriculture is very important to a country's economy but some countries don't really understand the importance of Agriculture, a country that embrace agriculture it will be hard for recession or inflation to be high. Agriculture is a way out from recession in a country and the citizens won't have on how to  survive.  Recession always comes with scarcity of food which people finds it difficult to afford buying food, but a country that depends on agriculture I think their will enough agricultural products to export that will help the country's economy and reduce the rate of hunger in the country.

Those countries are successful in which agriculture sector is successful and instead of importing vegetables and fruits from others countries we should export these foods to other countries so in this case our economy will be better and those countries where there is limited or no agriculture will be benefited from this type of exportation.

We should grow more vegetables if there is scarcity of some essential agriculture then we can exchange this with other countries. Lands are more in our countries but all of them are not in use so for making better use of these lands we should grow more and more food in order to make country financially stable and meet the demands of every citizen.

Hydroponics has indeed become a solution for farmers with very small land because they can take advantage of existing things in accordance with the existing guidelines on current agricultural technology. Because now everything has a solution that is very easy to do as long as everyone has thrown away their laziness in life, especially for the agricultural sector, which has many ways to do it even in a small area. And it can not only be used by countries with small territories, but countries with large territories can also use it as long as its citizens don't have excessive laziness.

One of the way to sustain an economy system suffering collapse is to introduce farming system and encourage the people to engage on a large scale agricultural farming, then the government also have to give more support to this to help the situation and challenges in agricultural farming practice, ones there's enough food items and raw materials produced enough for the people to depend on without having the mandate to engage on importation of food items from other countries, they can also make a move after satisfying the people's needs and having enough food items in reserve then also export some to have more imcome thereby encouraging for more of agricultural farming practice.

That's a very good move. The agricultural sector may not form the country's budget through exports, but even working for the local market it solves a lot of issues:
- it provides the necessary choice of products on the market, available to the local population
- provides jobs. And it is necessary to pay attention - if it is not a highly technologically developed country, the number of jobs is significant, because most of agriculture is manual or mechanized labor.
- Doing business, supplying to networks - these are taxes, which also form the budget.

Further support and development of the agro-sector may well move into the format of export potential, which will bring even more income to local farmers and the budget

I agree, but I think there's a limited kind of plants can be used plant using hydroponics or I'm wrong? All in all, hydroponics can really help the economy but the thing is it is kinda expensive in some areas, the materials are expensive especially here in us, we are in province but the lands are already occupied by subdivision. I really want to maximize the agriculture sector in us but the government is too slow.

I know agriculture isn't easy just as you have said especially in a country where their government are not really creating aids to support the farmers. But if one knows what he/she is doing, passion can readily drive him/her to success.

YEs hydroponic is expensive and we need to sell the plant little bit higher to keep the production and sometimes expensive vegetables doenst sell well and I do agree with you but I just view youtube video that farmer using hydroponic and Fish farming at the same time

and the technique called Aquaponics is essentially organic cultivation of plants and animals together in a re-circulating closed system (water tank), using water instead of potting mixes. - https://www.canna-uk.com/aquaponics

I think with this technique we can manage sell vegetable cheap and sell the fish at the same time

Developing a business with the hydroponic and aquaponic methods will certainly be very profitable for us, because this will save the land that we will use, of course this will greatly help reduce the costs that we will use, we can simultaneously produce fresh fish and fresh vegetables. I don't agree if you say vegetables are expensive, maybe there is the wrong place to sell your vegetables, for every high price, of course, there is good quality.

The most important need for humans is food, and food sources are from agriculture, countries that leave agriculture will become a country that will go bankrupt because it depends on food products from other countries. My country currently continues to try to increase agricultural production by providing a greater budget to the agricultural sector.

This is very limited from a realistic point of view, because there are many countries that do not have pastures for agricultural production, or that the areas allocated for agriculture are not sufficient for them to produce everything they need. I live in a country whose economy depends mainly on agriculture, and despite this, it cannot provide everything it needs, and it always needs imports from other countries to secure that deficit. This is in addition to the fact that local production needs medicines and materials that are inevitable to be imported from other countries that depend more on manufacturing than agriculture. These countries can secure their agricultural production needs by providing basic materials for agriculture to agricultural countries.

until now, several countries that are still surviving with agriculture have proven to be unaffected by the world economic recession, moreover, the need for food is increasing, while many agricultural lands have changed their function, causing food prices to continue to increase, countries that focus on agriculture will always survive a situation that is difficult.

here in Philippines, agriculture isn't just a source of income; it's somehow deeply rooted in the culture and way of life. very rich with agriculture from rice terraces that have stood for generations to the vibrant markets bustling with fresh produce, agriculture plays a significant role in daily life.

however it is sad that the current governtment and system is degrading the nature that possibly one source of country's great wealth.

Nothing beats a country that can sustain its own population with basic needs which are mostly food. Although most countries are affected by the world economic crisis at least countries that have good agriculture are not suffering much like other countries that are dependent on imports.

Too bad as I can see a lot of unutilized farming lands here in my country. Even many of my relatives are not making their lands productive anymore unlike the old times.

Hats off to OP. Hopefully, you can keep your farm as organic as possible. Someday I can have my own farm too.

A country's agriculture is able to turn the wheel of that country's economy. Agriculture is one of the most valuable sectors of a country whether we call it an industrial plant or a mill factory. People can live without clothes or other facilities but if people are completely stopped from eating then people cannot live. If there is no agricultural work in one's own country, one has to reach out to other countries to provide their own food. But when there is agriculture in one's own country, there is a great opportunity to export those agricultural products to foreign countries to meet the needs of the country. Since agriculture is considered as one of the most important sectors, the government should provide more facilities to agriculture and farmers so that they are more motivated towards agriculture and their cultivation is better. Because if there is abundant agricultural work in the country, the country will be saved from various disasters.

China, in particular, has recently used agriculture to boost it's economy. Currently, China's position in agriculture is very good, they have brought more development in agriculture by using advanced technology machines. Most countries are now dependent on agriculture.  Agriculture plays a very important role in the economic role of a country and agriculture is one of the most valuable sectors of a country. The government has now taken various steps to improve agriculture and farmers are being given better training. Therefore, the agricultural countries are producing good amount of crops through the use of advanced technology in agriculture and good seeds.

This may be true to some agricultural centered countries but there are still those who are doing not as good. For example, my country. It ish heavily centered in agriculture yet the budget for the agriculture sector is too low to support farmers and the country is now relying more on import goods to answer lack of food that could have been prevented if more care and assistance were given to farmers and their land.

I think it will be better if we support agriculture industry by investing in it. but unfortunately not all land in this world is appropriate for agriculture industry. some country need to maximize their potential in order to take place in the world market. some country focus in technology or mining or etc, so I think it depend on each country. there are must be various type of product in the market.

Starting small is a step in the right direction unless you have some experience in agriculture.  Also, your dreams are valid too. There's so much that agriculture can do for a nation aside feed the country. It can provide employment opportunities; it can be increasing a country's gross domestic product which measure how well a country is performing economically and otherwise. Agricultural products can be exported to other countries and there is also money made from exports. The possibilities are limitless. I hope your government will play its part in helping your business grow to thorough the provision of soft and hard loans, subsidies and many other agricultural inputs. Because it is only then will agriculture be able save your country from recession.

Agriculture has always been a great and reliance sources for so many countries growth.
In Africa, they ignore investing heavily on Agriculture. I still don't know why they all have a paper work on Agriculture but physical investment is very very poor.
If you can feed yourself then you can feed the world. A country that has not fed its self or citizen would want to compete in the world to feed the world.  Channel budget on to agriculture and see how great a country can become again. China invested heavily on Cassava having been supported but Nigeria but today they're one of the leading casava harvesters in the world because their government took upon itself not seek for help on something they can work on and be free from. African countries love to borrow , seek for help and purchase already made items thinking they can defeat poverty or hunger with that.
Agriculture is the key today and tomorrow.

I question that as well. Some countries who cannot even feed their own are pushing too hard to export goods despite the lack of food and supplies in their own country. Of course it is money talk but think of it this way, if those locals are fed properly, they will be more productive to work and will give a lot of help in raising the economy of the country.

Agribusiness is the best solution to be autonomous in your life. For example, if you have enough livestock and different carbohydrate crops such as rice or potatoes, then theoretically you can exist in isolation from civilization.
But there is one BUT. The fact is that naturally people used to live like this - they developed agricultural crops, but the fact is that it is very difficult. without automation, this is definitely not a profitable business, which means you need money for automation, maintenance, and so on. Therefore, it requires investments.

Nevertheless, I fully approve of the agricultural business, and I want to say that my friend grows strawberries for sale. He is new to this business, nevertheless he has profitability in this occupation. Therefore, I am sure that everything will be easy for you.

Agriculture can save you from spending much money on food, this is something that every countries have already going on, so why are still recessions? If food is everything that matters everyone on will be living comfortably, but there is more to life than food.

Agriculture is good if you can handle farming yourself, but it won't solve all your problems, it doesn't cost too much to be a farmer, all you need is a land and knowledge about farming.

There are many poor people that are farmers by default, Are you wondering why they are still poor? Agriculture is not the answer to everything.

I think that agriculture can really help when inflation attacks, because of course if the supply is complete or excessive there is no reason for the value commodity to increase for the people for sure and they will not feel affected by the inflation that is happening.

And imports from other places can also be avoided if a country has everything it needs, based on my assumption and opinion. So having a large agriculture supply for the prime commodities is an advantage for sure.

It is very true that if the price of commodity goods increases, it will certainly be felt by the community in the face of inflation, so there is a need for efforts from the government to invest in agriculture so that it can help the people if they experience inflation. Importing at a time when inflation is occurring will certainly make it difficult for the public to obtain their commodity needs.

In this world there are many countries with different levels of soil, but each land will never be wasted or redundant because land always has different contents in it in each country so that each country will always have a match to support the agricultural industry. Because each country does not have to produce from the same agricultural sources and every agricultural product that is different from each country will also be more profitable for each country when fellow countries can need each other's agricultural resources.

So in general no land is wasted in this world as long as everyone knows the soil content and knows what agriculture is suitable for that land. So I don't think there is a story for farmers not to grow crops as long as they still have land and land for them to work on in order to earn income in their life. Especially if in some countries that have been able to design land with today's agricultural technology so that they can grow crops like other countries with crop quality that is not much different.

I agree, this is also supported by different regions and areas. In my country, different regions produce different agricultural products that they export to another region in exchange for the other region's products. It is a good practice in the market. However, as more and more changes are made and less support is being given to the agricultural sector of the country and the farmers, many have noticed that instead of these local exchange, local products are being exported more despite the already lacking resources of local rice and other products in the country.

Soil conditions are indeed different in every country, even in one country there are many different soil conditions in each region. And yes, we only need to understand what plants are suitable for the soil to be cultivated, but you also have to understand that some agricultural products that are needed by other people or become basic needs, of course this is quite difficult if you plant crops that are not really needed by other people or other countries, with so much land that can only be planted with some plants it does not support that the results of agriculture will be needed, this is back again to market demand.
I think this thought must exist in doing any business including agriculture.

Do we need to government to farm?
I think people are being lazy because farm is a general thing that could be done by anyone out there but the strength and man power to start cultivation is something very tiring, or looks it as a dirty job since everyone needs a whitescholar job and seeing farming as an irresponsible people job. Let say a country that are 30 to 40 percent into agriculture and cultivation will never lack of hunger in their lands why because most of the produces or products are from within their country and this may reduce inflation and also reduces importation prices since all their farm products are being harvested in their land.

In other hands, if every single family gets involves in subsistence farming, there must not be a total hunger raving the land, but now people failed to understand the facts that what we eat and consumed today are all products from farming, what they think and thought aren't meant for them to get engaged. Take for example of Ukraine, Uzbekistan, Sierra Leone from my research are also depending on their farm products which made life very easier for them. Although there may be other countries that fully depends on their farm products, this few mentioned are just the little I had their ideas.

While agriculture is super important to keep feeding a country, in a developing country it is often backbreaking labor and can be considered one of the hardest low paying jobs you can imagine. It actually becomes the reverse in the most developed countries, because huge swathes of the countryside can be tended to by relatively few mechanized and automated machines, depending on the crop. While you can definitely distinguish the two types as a casual observer, it is just a small cog in the overall economic machinery of a country and is not a mechanism to save a country from a recession. Nor should trying to prevent a recession, a natural part of the re-ordering life cycle, be an aim for anyone - the best you can hop for is to try and smooth it when it inevitably occurs.

Agriculture cannot protect against recession and industry must adapt to it So that through proper processing of agricultural products Then unemployment will rise and employment will rise And will protect the country from any depression A farmer is a true patriot he will help the country to the maximum extent through his labor.A right approach with some very important food security is protecting the country from any recession So there is a lot of evaluation in agriculture in the world But developing and developed countries do not value agriculture in the same way That is why the developing world has many problems in providing food security, so they have to turn to foreign countries.Not only agricultural production should be done, but also crop diversification should be done through diversification and agro-based industries should be developed.Foreign exchange will be earned if all arrangements are made for export And the country will be saved from any recession Due to the lack of advanced technology education and knowledge, the farmers in the developing countries do not get the proper methods of growing crops, they do not get enough crops, and thus they move towards recession.If the government of any country provides training and all kinds of support through advanced agriculture, it is possible to save the country from depression by producing abundant crops.For example by proper marketing of tomato fish poultry mango etc. products As a result, a lot of foreign exchange will be earned and will play an important role in moving the country forward Many industries will be developed based on these and a lot of employment will be created, and various online incomes will be generated such as online product market is an important one now which is dependent on tax on agricultural products.There are many countries in the world that are not dependent or dependent on industry but only dependent on what has taken their country to the ranks of developed countries such as Malaysia.

Yes, agriculture can save a country from economic depression. The more goods a country is able to produce, the more goods it can export abroad. This increases the foreign exchange reserves in the country and at the same time many developments take place in the country.  The price of goods can be reduced in the country, it saves the country from famine. Therefore, to increase the production, it is necessary to increase the fertility of the soil, for this, it is necessary to refrain from throwing harmful substances like plastic into the soil. And plenty of water should be available.

Growing agriculture sector will help in the cutting of inflation and building of factories in such areas should be avoided where there are fields for agriculture because there are lots of harmful chemicals releases from factories and industries which have negative influences on the growth of agriculture.

Government should take some steps and actions towards the agriculture sectors because as rapid it grows rapid will be the growth of economy as a result of which we will not be relying on other countries for agriculture.

Developing the agricultural sector certainly has several things that must support each other such as large areas of land to be used for farming and of course having people who want to contribute to the agricultural sector and if one of those is not there I think it is very difficult for the development of the agricultural sector and there are still many things something else that must be considered.

You are right that the government needs to provide support to develop the agricultural sector so that it can meet domestic needs and if we are able to meet domestic needs of course we can export it and this will really help our economy.

Op, there's no need to explain yourself. It's like people only get merited when they castigate others' work.
Agriculture has lots of good impact on a country's economy and I also thought of going into large-scale fruit production. It'll help provide jobs and would be used in making healthy products that'll increase the life expectancy of the people in my country.
Anyways, I love your idea and your tomato farm, and here's a tip that may help, to quickly move from small scale to large scale, focus on employing lots of laborers for the time being. That'll lead to more planting, harvesting, and selling. The more the labourers the more the activities. And to ensure productivity, you pay them according to how much they plant and harvest.

I agree with what you say. But the problems in agriculture are very diverse and I will explain one of them. The agricultural problem that in my opinion is very difficult to solve is the regeneration of farmers, which for now agriculture is the spearhead of increasing people's life expectancy. However, most of those involved in it are parents, while the younger generation has lost interest in going into the world of agriculture.
The younger generation where I live, most of their parents are farmers. but they are reluctant to become farmers because they think being a farmer is dirty and a shameful job that is not appreciated by others. In fact, in agriculture, the energy and ideas of the younger generation are needed to improve the quality and quantity of agricultural products.

Looks like it's not just your place. In my place, the younger generation has started to lose interest in being a farmer. In fact, if you think about it, farming is not a dirty job because with existing technological advances, if we can understand it, it is not a problem. And I think working as a farmer is a promising job.

And again to the younger generation. Even though they are our children and their parents work as farmers, they are still not entirely ours. They are free to choose their work and life and we cannot force them to be the same as us. We as parents can only direct what is good in our opinion for their future and the rest is for them to decide.

The agriculture sector will flourish when the government and people value and encourage the farmers and provide various facilities.  The situation in the country is now such that no one values ​​the farmers due to which the farmers are also losing enthusiasm day by day in production. Sometimes everyone forgets how important it is to develop the agriculture sector, so the government should keep an eye on the agriculture sector and build various training centers for it, then it is possible to develop the agriculture sector.
