More and More people are moving away from agricultural background to relocate to cities to look for work. What will be the consequences of this? What solutions can you offer?

There is no doubt that it is becoming increasingly popular for people to quit farming and move to cities looking for employment.

This

essay will explain two problems resulting from

this

shift and

also

suggest some possible solutions to address them.

Firstly

, one major concern arising from people moving away from agricultural background is that it could drastically reduce the

food

production of a country.

This

is because independent farmers produce most of the

food

consumed by the nation.

For example

, in India about 80% of the

food

eaten comes from farming while the rest 20% is produced by private companies.

This

issue can be tackled by encouraging more farmers through provision of lands at lower rates, which could motivate families who do not have their own land to buy one and start farming.

Secondly

, people relocating to cities can result in crowding of the cities.

This

happens as people involved in farming move to cities to look for a job because they are not making enough money in raising crops.

This

could lead to increased pollution in cities. The problem can be handled by helping farmers to get good profits from their crops.

For Instance

, government of India, encourages farmers to grow a crop

that is

more suitable for the land they own,

thus

increasing their earnings. In conclusion, two of the main problems created by people relocating to cities from agricultural background are the decrease in the production of

food

and increase in the pollution in cities. These problems can be managed by the authorities via encouraging more farmers by providing lands at low prices and helping to improve farmers' profits.
