My OperaVIABLE ORGANIC PROJECTS FOR YOUTHS

When we talk about Organic Farming for youths majority of them wonder how possible and yet they have no land for crop cultivation. Agricultural land has proved a big challenge due to the fact that the existing land is inherited and this mainly happens at the death of parents. The other option is purchasing one which is realy expensive beyond the capability of youths.
To my opinion there is a solution by adopting projects that require small portions like under utilised backyards, flower gardens and parking spaces and convert them to productive spaces.
Are you still wondering what I intend with such spaces? Well only high value crops like strawberries & basil can give you some substantial money. But rearing rabbits or mushroom growing are some of the most viable projects. The other option is value addition and processing of organic crops grown by elderly farmers who own agricultural land.
These are but just a few projects where youths can be self employed with limited resources and make a decent living.
