What could be more important than having farmers be heard during such a decade. In that speech Karol stated \u201cToday many people have referred to family farming as the backbone of the economy in many developing countries, but also those who are suffering the most.

No one is better placed to grow more crops, manage soils, plant more trees or sync more carbon than farmers. The potential to move to zero carbon farming relies on technologies and innovative practices that will have agriculture play its part to hit 1.5: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.un.org\/en\/climatechange\/un-climate-summit-2019.shtml\">https:\/\/www.un.org\/en\/climatechange\/un-climate-summit-2019.shtml<\/a><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Young farmers are moving agriculture ahead, and it is privilege to get to interact with them.
