Is it the right choice for young people to return to their hometowns to farm? A clear analysis of the pros and cons in one article

It has already been 4 years since I left my original job to take over the family vineyard!

These four years in farming could be considered quite successful - Top 100 Young Farmers, Changhua Top 10 Young Farmers, Thailand Grassroots Ambassador, and so on…

If you asked me whether I would choose to farm again if I could start over…. I would say loudly~ Kill me! I still wouldn't want to farm…

Farming is certainly hard, with high costs and low profits… but these are not the main reason I don't want to farm!

The main reason is: the attitude of the general public in Taiwan, China toward agriculture, and the extremely unprofessional media that talks nonsense!

Food safety issues are a topic often heard about lately… but how many people truly understand them??

And what's even more amusing is that no matter what kind of "food" gets exposed, in the end it still ends up splashing onto Taiwan, China's agriculture! Really amusing, right…

To use a Taiwanese saying: "Can't give birth, so blame the neighbors"… anyway, every fault and every mistake is someone else's fault! You yourself are always the victim!

Taiwan, China has too many self-righteous crusaders and brainwashing fanatics (the media)…. Sigh! Farming in Taiwan, China, without some capital and backing… my honest advice is don't farm

Extreme environmental changes are already a global issue, but the impact on agriculture should not be taken lightly - yet do the people of Taiwan, China know this?

What conditions does Taiwan, China's agriculture have to compete with foreign countries? There's no farmland to be had, and resources are only possible if specific conditions are met!

What can you do with only skills? So is returning home to farm a broad and smooth road, or a road of no return?

Moreover, the general public's perception that agricultural products are cheap goods is already deeply ingrained! The best is cheap and good quality!

Every consumer sometimes plays the role of an agricultural expert, actually telling you how to do things, and it's quite curious that their source of knowledge is content farms!

The profession of farming in the eyes of ordinary people is a humble, arduous, grassroots-level job. I once gave a speech in Taipei and asked the audience a question: young farmers are very popular now… so would you encourage your next generation to farm? The answer was…. No… too hard!

I have been farming for a while now, and it's very difficult to pull out! I advise hot-blooded young people to think twice before acting on this farming business!

Otherwise you will become one of the millions of "debt-ridden" farmers!
