Food security might not be a priority for younger generations.

There is a huge possibility of younger or new generations adopting cryptocurrency investments compared to them getting interests on farming and food related sectors. What do you think? Does it have a good or bad effects on our economy?

There should be a balance regarding food security and investment; the government should encourage new generations and implement plans to secure the food of one's nation; a country cannot afford its people to starve or rely on investment and just rely on their food security through importation.
If a country has a vast land for agriculture the government should encourage the young generation to think of agriculture to sustain food security..

Food security is having nutritional food sources and the food is accessible, healthy, safe, and appropriate for the people. Because of financial problems spending on cheap foods with low nutritional value, and a lack of awareness of food security younger generations are not learning the importance of food security issues and sustainable farming practices. Accessing to secure and nutritious food is a major concern nowadays I hope this will take action to resolve this because this is for the benefit of the people, especially the younger generations they should educate and show them the importance of food security.

In my country(in which one of the agriculture country in Asia) that now starting to lose their way to grow foods because younger generations starts loving to be in internet and gadgets more than their ancestors culture and that is agriculture.

Due to advance technology in this era food security  will not be an issue, because they are several tech concerning farming and new innovation of farming system to mitigate food scarcity, security of food will be thing of a past. In this technology driven age food security is sure for the younger generation.

when you called those technological agriculture does not really talks about health security because the more they faster growing the foods is the more they become dangerous to our health.

so its still theold passion way of plating and growing animals  is what we need to be sustained .

Well yeah I can see it as well as young individuals don't prioritize preserving the traditional way of agriculture or they are more attached to social media and they seems lost interest on food security based on my observation and my concern is that in the next generations to come who will do the job to achieve from less to no food shortages if less and less people are not engaging into that sector?

AND THIS IS what the government must be concern from now not like in other countries specially in ASia that their elders tries to inherit the agricultural land and works to their  youngsters and their children also favors this but in our country we can see that those lands are now being converted into either business buildings or modern housing projects that makes the rice and veggies prices increasing same as the poultry and cattle prices.
Im praying that this will change for the people not to have fresh crops in the table and not exporting everything from other countries .

Things are happeningfast so if the government will ignore this I don't think we will be having sufficient food fo the next decades given that natural disasters are frequently visiting our country. The government should adopt the modern way of farming and fight smuggling seriously and educate the people about this issue so that there will be a change from the current messed up system.

We have more young millionaires in this generation, some of them are making money illegally but there are those that make money from the internet: YouTube, titkok, and so on. Apart from content creation most young people have dedicated their time to forex and crypto currency which has elevated their financial life. Agriculture is part of what generates revenue in Nigeria but does those money coming into the country help the youths in any way? Why would the youths bother to invest in what is not profitable to them besides if they can make money online daily, weekly or monthly then there's no point in venturing into it

Yeah good point right there because our countries youth and fresh graduates plans for their future doesn't revolve on agriculture anymore especially nowadays because I personally asked some of fresh graduates I know here in my place whther they are really into agriculture but unfortunately they only enrolled because of the sholarship program which means free tuition fee and what they are up into right now is tech or internet related jobs like freelancing, BPO or even working abroad for a much better salary so it is really alarming to see something like that and I hope the government has to support and find ways and plans to maintain food sufficiency and security.

Technology has taken over the world, and this has modernized agriculture, where farm machineries are used to make farm work fast and easy, making agriculture not needing so much people to be involved in its activities. Youths are growing up to meet new advanced technology, and they are the ones to keep on the good work. Farming will still be done in interior places where they will not have access to technology, and the youths there will farm, but they will be few.

You are correct. As technology is advancing in the world, agriculture farm products are not left out in having modernized equipment to make farm work in large quantities fast and easy to accomplish.

So many private and government firms are moving into having sustainable agriculture production for their whole populace to feed on since agriculture can be a boost to the economy.

I would advise people to learn how to go into agriculture and food production in any city where they find themselves since there's a rise in the cost of food consumption in societies. Having a small farmland, no matter how little it is, is not a bad idea

The younger generations leaning more towards crypto instead of farming could end up having mixed effects with huge consequences though but on the other hand, crypto is opening up new financial opportunities and innovation and could do more, but our fear is if too many people move away from farming completely, it might harm the food supply and lead to higher prices.


 We still need people in agriculture to keep food affordable and available. So, while crypto is exciting, completely ignoring sectors like farming could hurt the economy in the long run.

They are just going to leave the agriculture to the people who knows what they are doing. Leave it to the experts as they say.

It's sad that this is happening but the new generation doesn't understand where the food comes from. They don't even know the cheese they eat was once milk and then undergo a process before it turns into cheese. All they know is that food comes from grocery store.

Here in my place we actually feel the need of more farmers especially the younger ones because the old ones has come to the point of retiring due to their age and they are not doing good enough for the job. Majority of courses taken by students were not agriculture related like criminology, education, computer related courses or vocational courses for working abroad. The decrease may not be severe for now but in the long run that might affect the balance.

We in the tropical countries will not have to worry growing crops and crop supply since we can just buy from other region just within our country. It's the countries that are not producing crops such as rice and wheat because they could go hungry in just weeks of no shipments for mother countries.

There is a dock strike in US today which port employees are having a strike as they complain automation. If this employee strike continue til a week, the people may be seeing empty shelves on stores.

Fewer younger generations are in agriculture most are into technology, especially computers. I hope there are still youth interested in agriculture to help solve the inflation of foods nowadays for it is getting worse. By getting involved in farming and learning new ways to grow food, they can help make food more available and affordable.

Balance and not just balance a healthy balance is part of life (personal, organizational and National). Improper balance of agric (every day human cannot do without me /food in the stomach) has affected economies historically even now, next generation wouldn't be any different..

. Government that cares about their populace can encourage young people into agriculture now and generation to come.. By investing into agriculture but not just a political move as it has been in countries that are suffering this in balance even without crypto business, so with increasing online dependence, food shortage and rocket prices will continue to be the outcome.

However the youths focus on the online environment and undermining of agriculture will affect mostly countries that are never ready to develop, countries that politicize every moment and movement..
