Have you ever wondered why agriculture is essential in every country? Come to think of it. What do you think will happen to you if you have not eaten any kind of meal for the entire day? How worse will you feel in case the same thing happens for another day and then another and then another? Without the producers and their produce, the inhabitants in this planet will mainly turn into part of history.
Throughout history, nations will certainly attest to the significance of farming because it is every government administrations job to ensure that its people are well served with the food that they need for their nourishment. It is the governments main task to uphold food security and feeding the people is a top priority. With this, agriculture has ranked to be the very foundation of a country's social and political stability.
On the same level, employment is being provided mostly by the agricultural sector basically because huge farms need a hand. Manpower is necessary to operate tasks that include crop cultivation along with the care and raising of the farm animals. In other countries in the world, the field of agricultural demand remains so far as the biggest sector that caters to employment and then feeding of the large portion of the peoples population.
On the other hand, it is also essential in terms of evaluating a country's development standards. The competence of the farmers is being appraised especially in terms of catering to the needs of the people in line with food. Such competence is measured because with the recent developments as introduced by the advanced methodologies and technologies, the poorly trained farm hands cant definitely apply all of these.
Experts say that a country's agricultural development is based on two things. The first is on policy. The second is on science. Of course, farming itself will not be enhanced without the support of both the local and national government units. Farmers need funds so they can buy the high-end equipment that will let them cultivate the land easier and faster.
Come to think of it. This agricultural field is also widely affected by the natural disasters. Again, without the support of the government, improvement will not be possible.
Modern cultivation is far different from those of the conventional times. Traditionally, people aimed at bulk manufacturing and then keeping these provisions for the rainy days. That was when the world was still young and no natural and economic disasters were yet known of. These days, when the challenges have actually worsened, the more that farmers need a helping hand. Organic farming is being asked for by the health buffs but that goes to mean another set of funds to make this request totally possible.
Nevertheless, the facilities will change and more policies will be applied. But it will never change the fact that agriculture is a necessity. Every country must invest on it for the nation to meet its goal of having a stable social, political, and economic progress.

As in any country, agriculture plays a very important role for the country. Not merely to realize its vision of achieving overall development and growth, but especially in terms of boosting the economic productivity of a nation. I am certain no one would refute that agriculture is a very indispensable aspect of a country since it brings food to the tables of thousands of our citizens and countrymen. Obviously, if a country will solely rely on agriculture as its main source of food; its people would naturally depend on agriculture for their livelihood as well.
Really, without agriculture, life will just be more difficult especially for nations which have rice as their staple food. Indeed, we can say that a stable agriculture without doubt, can ensure a country of its food supply. This only means that the primary requirement of its citizen – food – is regularly delivered to their homes and into their tables.
Rising Dilemma of Food Shortage
However, with the onset of a rising population in a global sense, it then becomes more difficult for the industry of agriculture to sustain the food supply to people; hence, the crisis of food shortage is introduced. The demand for food and the supply of food simply do not meet both ends of their trade and so inequality becomes an issue with agriculture.
Therefore, it is truly important that through agriculture, food security is successfully met to prevent the further growth of the number of people getting hungry. And since most countries especially the developing ones solely relies on agriculture, it becomes more of a challenge to them to meet the demands of the people.
Less Products from Agriculture
At present, the agricultural lands that we have do not equate to the agricultural land that we have had in the past. In the past, it is easy to produce tons of products from agriculture since we have an abundance of arable land. However, as the decades pass, these lands are slowly degrading and becoming less productive triggered by the different human interventions and practices that have been implemented in these lands.
These include excessive tillage that results to soil erosion, usage of bad chemicals as fertilizers which then results to a long term degradation of the land, and even the development of the industrial sector that took over the lands that are once used for agriculture. These things result to unproductive lands and decreased quality of food. In turn, as more and more lands become commercialized, what happens is more and more farmers lose their jobs. Also, as the quality of the crops become increasingly negative, its economical value also decreases.
The Magnitude Of Agriculture Goes Beyond Food Production
It is important that agriculture should be sustained if people still want the future generation to have food to eat on their tables. It is important to fund various researches and developmental projects in order to solve the main root of food shortage: degradation of agriculture. And so, with the development of different technologies, it is then possible that agriculture can truly save the global population. And whats even more important is that with the goal of making farmers much more competent and knowledgeable on the different methods which they can use in farming, it is still possible that the agricultural sector can rise from below.
Truly, although some may not have realized yet the importance of agriculture, it is still apparent that we have to take action for the development of every nation in the globe. It is imperative that we make agriculture one of the top priorities of governments and international agencies to aid in the rising problem of food shortage all over the globe.
