Sa di kaayo halayong umaabot nga mga katuigan, aduna pa ba kaha o pipila na lang kaha sa mga bag-ong henerasyon ang dunay igong kadasig nga musunod pagbanos sa pagpanguma?
With its vast and rich natural resources, supposedly, the Philippines is richly blessed as an agricultural country. But why are most of our farmers poor? If the majority of our country's agriculture remain to be within [or even below] the level of subsistence farming, fewer and fewer people of the next generation would find interest in agriculture. (Not to mention the new generation's inborn pre-inclination to gadgets and urban living which makes farming a remote possibility in their choices of career or profession.)
Administration after administration, the government has since been desperately trying to impart to the next young generation the interest in agriculture, yet so far, nothing sustainable has been achieved. It would seem that perhaps the new and young generation considered farming and agriculture as an old-fashion lifestyle and not a trendy career or profession in today's high tech and gadget-dominated era.
Perhaps a time will come when only so few people will endeavor their lives into farming/agriculture such that they are so rare like missionaries.
Without sustainable good agriculture, a nation could eventually "die".
