More people are quietly making a difficult decision this season to step away from farming due to the rising cost of fertilizers and farm inputs.
And understandably so.
But thereās another side to this conversation.
Some households are now thinking
āLetās just buy and store food during the harvest season.ā
But then the question is,
if many people stop farming, who will produce the food we plan to buy?
Harvest does not happen in the market, It starts on the farm.
And behind every bag of food in the market
is a farmer who chose to plant, despite the cost and uncertainty.
And for those of us still willing to farm
have we considered the bigger picture?
Have we checked the unexpected weather changes, seasonal predictions, rainfall patterns, and uncertainties that now shape agriculture?
Today, farming is no longer about effort only,
it is also information, timing, and awareness.
This is why agriculture is not just a personal decision,
it is a collective survival system.
