Agriculture can save your country from recession

[odunybiz]

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.

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.

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.

[chrisculanag]

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.

[mamesso]

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

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.

[Sebas.tian]

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.
