Hello Hiveians ❣️❣️
I have always have this interest in anything that has to do with farming, food and fruits production basically anything that has to do with me getting my hands dirty to grow beautiful things.
Few months ago I had recently gotten a job in an agricultural institute, OFFERCentre institute of agriculture. This institute only offers agricultural courses only. The focus of the institute is basically the practical aspect of agriculture as well as the research.
In a country where youths are somewhat not interested in anything that has to do with agriculture as they feel it doesn't give so much yet demands so much effort. Youths in the country basically don't want to get themselves associated with agriculture even feeling ashamed to be called farmers.
Well, I joined this institute few months ago and their goal is to change that perspective that the youths have about agriculture. The students here are engaged more in the practical aspect of agriculture, getting their hands dirty and working smart to become successful in this field in the future.
Few days ago, the students had an excursion to a government facility we're heavy duty machines used for agriculture are kept. This excursion is basically to change this perspective they have that agriculture is one very hard career to venture into as you have to work and work and put in more hard work and getting little at the end of the day.
This mini excursion was aimed at changing their perspective in he sense that agriculture has evolved from one which has to do more with man power and has moved to a more mechanised form where machines do more of the work.
In a country that imports a larger percentage of its food, we hope to continue to attract the youths of the country to go into agriculture, seeing agriculture in its modern form that is mechanical in nature and not something you have to use manpower basically to achieve success.
Thank you guys for taking out time to go through my post,❣️❣️
We hope to continue to raise youths with a positive mindset about agriculture in the country.
