Fully support @papilloncharity in what they do, two fold feeding and education.
First area I would like to see growth/education, supporting hydroponic growth farming education,taught to our youth, getting back to the land not requiring massive farming facilities. This is sustainable in communities by installing rain tanks, using vertical planting within confined structure.
Second would be toward wildlife conservation by giving back more to animals, enhancing equilibrium between land, wetlands, rivers, sea and man.
If sustainable farming on land can be achieved, less land will be needed for farming, freeing up more and allowing animals to enjoy more.
A few good concepts there, a mix of animal welfare and sustainable initiatives for people. Balanced and well thought out.
Thanks for joining in this week.

It would be amazing to witness food shortages become a thing of the past, no longer raping the land, use technology on offer, in return sparing environment for all.
I agree, although like @papilloncharity, I believe that the problem will get far worse before it turns around and gets better. I hope I'm wrong.
There's lots of food and room for growing it. The problem is lots of places just throw it away or companies heavily modify it so it dies every year and they have to buy seeds all over again. Out of control companies are ruining lots of aspects of life i think!
ENGAGEtokens.Thank you Lady @joanstewart and thank you also for your longstanding support.
Being a fellow citizen in South Africa, it is great that you and a few other South Africans here on Hive support our work, as it speaks volumes for the trust that people have in us.
We don't talk, as we rather do and that makes all of the difference.
Btw. Imibala, one of our partner NPO's in the coding project has just sent a bunch of students off to the agriculture college in Graaff Reinette.
Their studies are fully paid up and it should make you happy with your farming hopes.
Good to hear they are directing youth into agriculture, hopefully using new technology that does not require as much water as old methods did.
Small steps take us in the right direction I have heard of such success stories from ladies going into agriculture, in many regions ladies traditionally have done farming for many years in rural areas.
Keep up the good work and thanks for news on what is happening.
Thank you and we will keep our ear to the ground regarding their performance.
It will be indeed the last methods that they will be taught.
My dream is still alive to buy a farm where we can rehabilitate short term prisoners. The ones that are convicted for petty crime, as to teach them farming will open many new doors at self sufficiency for them.
But time will tell.
Blessings and !WINE

This is nice, encouraging farming and education. Our president have been saying we should go back into agriculture but not everyone is interested but its a good call
Definitely some good points here! Hydroponic farming is huge, my brother is really good at it and eats food that grows out if his fish tank. It's such a crazy system to understand, how efficient it is!
If I could get people motivated in my own garden this is exactly what I would do, glad your brother has organized food using this system.
