“Don’t underestimate
the details, it can mislead you to find the best solution”
- Woka Aditama -
The quotes above are coming , rightly after I came back from
Canada for attending Youth Agricultural Summit last year. A week of discussion there about food insecurity , had open my eyes that a
simple issue such as gender equality, could be so impactful to maximize world
agricultural productivity. Yes, its not talking about complicated topics such
as high - technology for farmers or any scientific Genetically Modified (GMO)
who only could be done by particular experts. And today, commemorate International Women’s Day
on March 8, I think it’s a perfect
time to talk about promoting women's role
in agriculture.
The meme above approximately describe the ‘principle’ thing
in this article. So if you get lost about the topics, don’t worry. Just see back on that meme.
Many solutions from worldwide experts and world leaders have been implemented to overcome a poverty and increase food
security. Mostly of those solutions are focus to developing countries in terms
to increase yields in agricultural
production. Because this improvement will make affect in improvement of food
security and at once elevate farmers economy welfare itself.
But, have it ever cross in your mind that all those great
solutions might be a part of problems itself in agriculture?
