Engaging rural youth in strengthening the local food movement in India
First paragraph: In India, traditional agriculture has historically been a subsistence-oriented, labor-intensive, closed-loop, and varied production system. Farming has long formed the foundation of the rural economy and served as a means of subsistence for local communities. Until a few decades ago, rural youth were actively choosing farming as a career, serving as the main workforce in a variety of agricultural enterprises. However, most of today’s youth do not want to work in low-value agriculture. Instead, they migrate to urban areas, within or outside of their home states where there are not many opportunities for quality work, social services, or protection. Responding to these constraints through more inclusive changes in rural areas and through the alignment of rural-urban linkages is a significant challenge. It is crucial to look at opportunities and address obstacles in order to ensure that agriculture is economically viable and provides year-round employment for young people in rural India. . . .
