In every small way, anyone can. Plant something. Government isn\u2019t responsible for it all. No. We the citizens should also take responsibility. The youth of today are honestly lazy. Nobody wants to get his hands dirty\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Bridget Otoo has however dragged Kwadwo Safo saying that farming is not that cheap as people think. According to her, farming requires a lot including labour, land tools and many others which makes it look like farming is for the rich now.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In her twert she wrote, \u201cFarming is expensive. Let\u2019s be honest, it is even beginning to look like the rich people are the ones doing the farming,\u201d she stated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cPeople talk about farming as if they are giving out free lands, paying for labour and the youth are refusing to do it. Even me, my dad gave me farmlands, we\u2019ve not been able to find money to put it to use. Not having money is not equal to being lazy\u201d, she explained.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<div class=\"twitter-tweet\"><blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-lang=\"en\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Farming is expensive\u2026<br><br>Let\u2019s be honest, it is even beginning to look like the rich people are the ones doing the farming!<br><br>Days ago I saw a nigerian poultry farmer crying cos he lost about 4,000 birds due to floods &amp; not having access to feed!
