In my opinion, I think we should set a teaching course to promote this concept because students at the university are also young people who will enter the professional world after graduation.
And in Thailand, the population has a core occupation as the farmers. Because of the advantage of weather, land and water, which is suitable for rice cultivation and food crops planting.
The current problem of interconnected transportation from restrictions follows the measures to stop the spreading of the COVID 19 virus, which impacted the food system directly. People have to consume the local food to survive the communities.
The new generation or youth is the most important factor of labor work of the agricultural for food system. They will be replacing the labor that engages in agricultural work in the food system such as in production, transportation, distribution to deliver the safe food to the consumer in local or communities in outbreak crises and in the future.
It would be great if they have their mindset to aim into the participation in agricultural work in food systems. Therefore, we should encourage those young people to realize the benefit and cognitive; the strengthen knowledge of the employment in agricultural engagement or return rural to run their own farming to develop the fields of their parents, deliver this concept to their mind by studying.
We should find ways to motivate and encourage to deliver this cognitive concept into their mindset to create long-term memories through their education. It might be set as the special curriculum of this concept for students in universities, which can be applied into the online learning to avoid the global food shortage crisis from the epidemic crisis of Covid19 pandemic right now and in the future to achieve zero hunger in SDG2030.
