The future of Farming.

[harapan]

You have brought a topic that is important which is the future of farming and this is really the future of food production in the world. If people are going to keep feeding well and get nourished then farming should be taking serious. The unfortunate thing is like you have mentioned also is the land or space to farm. Really, development is taking over land space for agricultural activities.

Whether vertical farming or not, the government need to really take proactive measures to secure lands that will be meant for agricultural purposes and no interference of any capital projects, building of roads, bridges or other structures should not be done in such areas. Just like there is game reserves, the government should put land out and secure them for the purpose of agriculture.

Farming is not just a skill,farming us the future,the future of many,the future of nations and the future to all.There's need to improve and urbanize the farming sectors because the world wholly depends on it.
 It can be by  Embracing new and emerging technologies that can help grow stronger crops, raise healthier animals without any interference.
 If not for farming,how does the world intend to feed,despite finance,economy and governmental policies,they need agriculture to surface in more and thats because it has a role to play greatly for us.agricultural machine manufacturers, cooperatives, pesticide suppliers, and public and private actors such as digital and agricultural ministries must be facilitated for a easy running and functioning to farming modernization.

I also quite agree if you say that farming is not just a skill, because there are many people who have lived on the results of farming all this time and previously too. So the agricultural sector must continue to be given special attention so that citizens do not experience food shortages and lack of sources of staple foods and other complementary foods such as vegetables. However, because now there are tools to make agriculture easier for farmers and breeders to manage, I think it is quite natural to apply technology to it so that the agricultural and livestock sectors can continue to run more advanced.

Everyone should be very aware of this because in all countries the agricultural sector is a sector that produces a large amount of food sources, so agricultural modernization must be implemented as a whole so that traditional farmers can develop more in running agriculture and it is easier to manage it. Apart from that, with the agricultural sector still alive, it can also move other sectors such as cooperatives, pesticide suppliers, and others as well as in people's lives.

all forms of things related to agriculture should be facilitated by governments in all countries, the reason is simply because agriculture will continue to be a commodity that people need.

In Indonesia, for example, what often hinders agriculture here is the high price of fertilizer and low selling prices, so agriculture here is not developing well, instead it just seems stagnant. If there are people who have the best solutions regarding agriculture, they should be appreciated because no matter how small the idea they find, it will definitely be very useful for agriculture in the future.

Land is becoming lesser and not very available for agriculture as before, There is a lot of Urbanization going on and many land space are being built on to carter for the increasing number of persons. There will be lesser organic foods available for consumption as the worlds population increase and farming space reduces. Because of this, there now has to be an improvement in farming methods and I personally consider vertical Farming to be the future of organic food farming.

In vertical farming, Plants are grown in stacked layers under controlled conditions like green house farming.
In vertical farming,

Ensures Consistent Crop Production
One of the biggest benefits of vertical arming lies in the fact that it is extremely reliable. That means, when you opt for vertical farming, you can be assured of getting consistent crop production throughout the year. This is further made possible because vertical farming doesn’t usually rely on the weather, allowing you to cultivate crops without having to get worked up about adverse weather conditions.
Uses Space Optimally
Reduces Usage of Water
One of the biggest perks of vertical farming lies in the fact that it follows a Hydroponic growing process whereby only 10% of the water is used. This mode of farming also uses fewer fertilizers and nutrients when compared to conventional methods. Since the water is completely clean even after usage, it can be duly reused thereby reducing the total cost and cutting down on waste.
Cuts Down on Transport Cost
You can always choose to grow crops in an area where your customer lives thereby reducing transportation costs, carbon dioxide emissions, and the constant need for refrigerating your produce. At the end of the day, this not only contributes to the freshness of your products but also makes them incredibly profitable.
Doesn’t Involve Chemicals or Pesticides
When you grow food on a vertical farm, you have the chance of completely cutting down on the need to invest in pesticides. That is because your farming is practiced in a controlled environment that prohibits the entry of pests.
Limits Occupational Hazards
With indoor farming in place, no farmer is exposed to the hazards associated with using heavy farming gear. They are also well-protected from a range of ailments like malaria, issues from harmful chemicals, and the likes of it.Since this mode of farming does not affect trees and animals around inland zones, it is also an excellent way to promote biodiversity.
Larger Produce
Probably the biggest benefit of vertical farming is the fact that it helps produce more crops in general. As we already know, this mode of farming enables cultivars to produce crops consistently in a small area. Interestingly, it also boosts the amount of produce.

What do you think about Vertical Farming, do you agree that it is the future of farming really?

I agree that vertical farming holds promise, especially considering the future increase in population and potential reduction in available land for traditional farming. However, I have some concerns about the cost involved in setting up and running vertical farms, as well as the variety of crops that can be successfully grown in this way. For vertical farming to become a truly viable alternative, I believe it needs to be more cost-accessible and support a wider range of crops.

[JariKriting]

agriculture is not only a problem of increasingly narrow land and difficult to open agricultural land. but people who want to work on it are also getting less and less. because the younger generation prefers to work in offices, companies or factories rather than having to farm. because the mindset that has been formed is that farming is a less prestigious job with no prestige. but because the population is increasing and continues to grow if rarely people farm the supply of food will be less and more expensive and will ultimately disrupt life in a country.

[blckhawk]

For me, the future of farming would be one where crops are genetically modified to give out more high yield per square inch of land to meet with the ever increasing demand for food, and I do believe that we will also grow in terms of how we farm, right now we're already experimenting with vertical farming which is a really sustainable way of farming and utilization of farm lands. If things go the right way, I think that farming will be a key thing for our survival, after all, if we don't improve on it, we're going to be experiencing famines and countless deaths all over the world.

I personally like the idea of vertical farming to be honest as it does not need a lot of space. In urban areas since they have this narrow spaces we can see most of 'em using this kind of technique to cultivate fruit bearing and green leafy vegetables. I can see massive adoption using this technique during pandemic. But here in the province we are not into this kind of farming because we have spacious agricultural land. The only problem nowadays is that the number of farmers are declining due to fact that farmers are getting old and younger generations lose interest on it, in addition, this pose a threat to the economy and food sufficiency in the future.

To be honest, become farmer not promising with much profitable earn and less youth generation want to make farmer as their job, In my country, Indonesia, being a farmer is quite difficult and difficult, the price of fertilizer is very expensive and the price of agricultural products is very cheap, you need to balance your expenses and the income you get as a farmer. There are still a lot of land left where I live but the difficulty with expensive agricultural products and still using traditional systems is that it is very difficult to get big profits if you focus on the field

Not all countries have adopted sophisticated technology in the agricultural sector, in my country all still use traditional methods from the planting process to harvest so that farmers get little profit compared to the expenses they have to incur.

Come on now, haven't you heard of the human ingenuity? Just because someone doesn't have a sophisticated technology as you've said doesn't mean that they're going to stop progressing, trust in the craftiness and clever nature of these poor farmers because even if you don't believe them, they're going to deliver what they're promising to you and also even if not all countries, foreign aid or foreign cooperation would probably be a thing in the future of farming so cheer up and be an optimist about all of this.

I think you talk from a poor country's perspective because in poor countries, farmers earn the least amount of money and everyone tries to sell villages and move to cities for a better future. In my country land in villages is cheap because nobody wants to live there and we import most of the food, local ones can't beat the prices of imported products, that's strange but it's how it is. I have heard that in rich countries like the USA, people might want to become a farmer but land is so expensive that you can't become a farmer if your parents didn't give you land. Btw I haven't heard about vertical farming, googled it right now and I like this idea, it's very cool, we can save tons of land via vertical farming.

foreign aid or foreign cooperation would probably be a thing in the future of farming so cheer up and be an optimist about all of this.

My country receives lots of foreign aid from Europe but it's rarely used for the development of farming, most of it is eaten by corrupt politicians.

All of this has its own advantages and disadvantages in each agricultural model, because traditional agriculture which does not require more costs definitely requires more effort from the manager himself. Meanwhile, vertical farming which is said to be promising does not require more labor to do, but it definitely requires more costs to make it successful even though it can be harvested in a short period of time if the results are better. However, the downside is still the cost issue, which generally not everyone can afford.

Vertical farming can be successfully applied where there is a problem with free territory or with the fertility of the land. That is, it is suitable for urban areas on the roofs of multi-story buildings, but not for rural areas. Of course, this technology is worth supporting and it can provide people with additional agricultural products.
But in general, food shortages are still expected in the future and people will look for other opportunities to survive. Promising in this regard may be the creation of artificial food from gas, oil and other organic substances. At the same time, existing agricultural land should be treated with care and not destroyed.

This is a really interesting concept.
For the second year now I have been participating in one crypto-agro project as an investor. Now the main crops (tomatoes, cucumbers, zucchini, lettuce, cabbage, radishes, ....) are grown using the standard method. Last year, we decided to launch several test sites with a vertical growing system. The equipment has already been purchased and will be installed in the near future, after which the first harvest will be sown. The plan for the development of this technology is very serious. After all, technology allows you to get many times more harvest from the same area, at lower costs!

I agree with you, farming is the future. because of course, if there are no farmers, rich people cannot taste or get rice that was previously managed by farmers, therefore I think the work of farmers is a job that is of great service to many people. Most of our basic daily needs are produced by farmers, therefore we should be able to thank farmers. Indeed, money can buy everything, but not everything can be bought with money.

It's true what you say, if it weren't for agriculture, how would the world be able to provide food. In fact, in my opinion, the work of farmers should be paid attention to, such as providing more support to them, even though the price is high, perhaps because the farmers themselves experience the process, so it is natural that they want a higher price than usual. It is true what you say that agriculture has a big role for us, because it fulfills our needs to survive.
