I had to think twice while I was getting started with my answer. I don't even know whether investments in the agricultural sector are that feasible for young people who are looking into potential investments. It is probably not a sector that will keep growing for a long time as I believe at some point in time genetic technology will play a bigger role than it already does today.
Do you subsume any food production technologies under your so called farming and food related sectors? I assume yes and I think that's where things could become interesting again. Any advanced technology will be driven by younger generations at some point. Probably AI would take over when it comes to developing safe and effective genetic technologies.
After all, supply and demand will rule the (investment) markets and of course accessibility of these markets. At the moment my impression is that agricultural sectors are purely dominated by giants like Bill Gates and massive companies. They live off of the dividends whereas younger people look for investments that still have a lot of potential to grow. If it is about experimental technologies and breakthroughs, it's different as we have seen with some startups that exploded during the COVID crisis.
But in the agricultural sector, someone like Bill Gates owns so much that it is not important to him whether the share price increases. He makes billions from dividends alone, no matter whether the shares drop in price or increase price, whether there is a food crisis or not.
Certainly there are young people entering minority roles which could be a good investment in agriculture. The field of agricultural investment does require energy and mental power, discipline to develop. If we take these two categories, people can be successful if they understand algorithmic material. In the modern era, most young people are looking for investments that are not too risky, such as the crypto world, if you know the basic knowledge, this can be the main object

Lol, I am not certain how exactly you meant this sentence. A generalization à la "the crypto world" is not risky really made me laugh man! If you said that BTC can be a safe investment compared to other investments outside the crypto world, I would agree if we presume that someone doesn't go bonkers and sells his wife's marriage ring (like someone here on the forum said) or takes a loan and goes all in being neck deep in the water financially. Throwing this sentence out there that "the crypto world" is not risky, that's ridiculous!
It also doesn't make sense because where is reward there is risk, that is how it is. But it's true that this ratio "risk-reward" was skewed in favor of those who studied BTC early and understood it better than others. Indeed, those people came to the conclusion that the risk-reward ratio of BTC outcompetes all the ratios of any other investment opportunities. But since I believe that your "crypto world" includes all these altcoins, then I can only say that they are damn risky and that the risk-reward ratio is so bad that your statement they would "not be too risky" is plainly false.
