Many agricultural commodities such as corn, soybeans, meat, eggs and many more must be imported from other countries, when 15 or 20 years ago my country exports the commodity, and of course this is a sad fact, this is because of the many agricultural land that changes functions become an apartment building, park, tourist attractions and so on. Naturally, if the price of agricultural materials is more expensive.
The government needs to make farming an encouraged business to do for the people and they must also focus on this agricultural aspect because that's the sole dependent of economy markets and human sustainability, farming must be done both on the rural and urban settings, a country must bot be too dependent on importation of food items from other countries when they are meant to encourage their young adults to engage in farming by making adequate provisions for their start up needs to encourage them venture into farming, this will help the country eradicate poverty, hunger and disease, other countries may also depends on their productions.
The solution is so simple and yet people do not look for it, just don't tax them for their income and that's it. However, we also need to be done with all this huge farms to feed a nation thing, it's just getting boring, and the land we have in every nation is enough to actually be sheltering everyone as well, and we can produce cars for every single person who wants it, and we can do railways and bus stops everywhere for free. People are not realizing this and that makes me insanely angry.
We are spending billions, even trillions on tax as a world, and what do we get in return? Idiotic things, hell war is still a thing, how primitive is that. Just have a town size warehouse filled with vertical farming and you feed a whole nation, costs less than a billion dollars per year, it's real and it's there and yet we don't do it.
