One of the main issues agriculture currently faces worldwide is one of perception. Be that the perception of agriculture as a backward industry where one only gets involved in it if you have no other options or of agriculture destroying the environment and one of the main causes of climate change.
These perceptions need to change. This change will have to happen at a young age and children must be enabled to see what an exciting prospect it is to be involved in agriculture.
Attached is a Nuffield report looking at just this issue, it was written from an Irish perspective but it could easily be adjusted for any region or country. If it can be ensured that this generation of children grow up with an appreciation, interest and even an excitement around the possibilities that agriculture offers them, then the world will reap the benefits in the future.
