Involve young leaders in farming industry
Bangladesh is full of natural resources. Despite such a large share of our economy taken up by agricultural activity (almost 80 percent of the population’s occupation is farming), younger generations show little to no interest in the sector. Farming doesn’t just refer to rural people working hard in fields all day long. It is also a scientific process requiring the young generation’s participation in order to develop. If we can motivate students to contribute to the farming sector, we can fix the unemployment problems of Bangladesh. It would give them an alternative to competing for office jobs in a herd and also help develop and important sector of the economy.
