Improve agriculture, save Africa.

Farming has evolved into a high-tech industry in our days. It requires expertise, cash, and ideas. This is not a simple way to eliminate poverty as people may presume. The concept that every poor family should have a vegetable garden and a flock of chickens is as obsolete as slavery. Surveys in Ghana reveal that the majority of people are uninterested in agriculture as a career, especially the youth. This is due to the less power of farmers when there is pricing, making agriculture unattractive.

But there are a couple worldwide issues with agriculture as well. One of those is the plight of major intermediaries and retailers that profit from it. This is at the base of the manufacturing industry, and all expenses are transmitted down. It is the equivalent of feudalism in today's countries, when the individual working away is firmly linked to the land. Agriculture, in my opinion, is purposefully abused for the advantage of larger communities. Issues must be handled with appropriately.

As a blockchain fan, I am open to seeing the brilliance of the agricultural market, but there is a worldwide demand to give agriculture greater negotiating power or to preserve it via basic pricing. When compared to the value of other consumable items, the least is what is accepted.

Ghana’s problems are beyond the production or primary sector if you ask me. You would expect that because we have Gold, Cocoa and what not, we wouldn’t face certain problems, but looks at us. We literally have all the natural resources we need to thrive but look at us. It’s a matter that goes deeper than a lack of interest in Agriculture.

Thanks your addition bro.
