Nurturing our family farms

Abstract

So what is family farming then? As the name implies family farming includes all agricultural activities that are undertaken by families – it can be a small home garden or a commerciallysized affair. It is not just limited to growing fruits and vegetables, but may also include keeping livestock and fish farming (aquaculture) – any farming activity that is managed and operated together by a family. What many people do not know as that in many countries, most of the food is grown not by huge company farms, but by fami lies.
