As for farming methods, we should advocate adopting organic farming.
It offers a sustainable and healthy alternative to conventional agriculture. For example, using natural fertilisers and crop rotation keeps the soil rich in minerals without chemicals. Moreover, this method protects the environment by preventing chemicals from polluting the air, water, and crops. It also safeguards people's health by providing food free of harmful residues.
Hence, we should advocate organic farming as a responsible choice for our future.
