Family FarmingOldest of Arts of Living facing Newest Challenges
Family Farming as old as human society
• Living in Crises—Food, Fuel, Financial, Climate change, technology … … Family Farm survives across the Globe
• Family members directly involved in farming
Family Farming advocates Food Security to Food Sovereignty—
seed, water and farm
Family Farmers Neglected most
A Farmer’s Son
and daughter struggle
…and his wife
…and evicted family farmer
Where is the policy space for family Farmer?
• He labours hard over the rocky field
Once he produces faces marketing
If less production faces hunger
• A farmer child curiosity vanishes in bewilderment
What IYFF must address
• Ensure farmers’ access and control over natural resources, mainly land, water, forests and seeds
• Preserve and Promote sustainable, agro –ecological long practised by Family Farmers
• Ensure Youths’ vibrant dreams in Farming• Recognise women’s role in Farm busines• Ensure access and fair competition in market
And there is Huger Free World by 2025
Farmers Claim • Today is
