The year 2014 is the INTERNATIONAL YEAR OF FAMILY
FARMING. It was declared by the Food and Agriculture
Organization of the United Nations. The theme is “Feeding the
world, caring for the earth”. The goal of the international year
of Family Farming is to reposition family farming at the centre
of agricultural, environmental and social policies in the
national agendas by identifying gaps and opportunities to
promote a shift towards a more equal and balanced
development.
The researchers show that many diseases occur today in our
world due to instant food we take. The consumption of oily and
salty instant food is very high today. Therefore physicians and
scientists search for a solution to reduce high consumption of
such food. For that, people around the world are motivated
towards the family farming. Now the world leaders encourage
people towards the family farming, thinking of a sustainable
development. More than a profession, this will be very useful to
people take fresh and nutritional diet from their gardens.
Today many nations are suffering due to lack of nutritional
food. Many governments around the world have already taken
steps to encourage their people to think about the value of
family farming. We all should think about our food, not only
because of our hunger, but also the importance of a nutritional
diet. Let’s hope all nations will understand this thought and its
importance during the year 2014!!!!
