Graduates, go forward into farming

Dear Editor,

Female farmer, Miss Morgue Mortley is encouraging students not to "scoff at farming". She said: "Some university graduates, from rural communities, who now live in urban centres, but cannot find a job, I am therefore urging them to return home, and create employment for themselves and others through farming."

That's a good alternative, coming from Miss Motley. And I agree with her. And it's one of the best antidotes to human's dilemmas of needs and wants; as it feeds hunger and creates employment in a number of supporting roles such as transportation and marketing.

Many young people see farming as dirty work, so they scornfully look down upon it. But the Bible said that we are made of dust and we shall return to the dust. Therefore, based on what the Word of God say, shouldn't it be a flying start for us to plunge ourselves deeply into farming? Furthermore, the Creator's number one portfolio in His administration was make the earth fruitful. So, we can't lose, when it comes farming.
