RE: Agric Digest 2: Agriculture Finance-The bloodline of Agriculture
Agriculture is actually a major challenge over here in Nigeria, many people go into subsistence farming leaving the commercial farming for the wealthy ones who knows little or nothing about cultivation and rearing of animals.
Yes that seperation of rich and poor still holds in the agriculture business
The wealthy ones even employed people without any agriculture education
Leaving those who studied agriculture unemployed
But those who studied agric ought to own a farm as they will mange it well
But finance is the issue and also people dont want to start little. Agriculture because of its maturation period has so many risks. Let youths learn to start little. If asked many of them will not be able to run the farm well when large capital is given to them
