Conclusion: Farmers are responsible for the future of their village
· A village makes no progress if
its farmers are not modern.
· If the way of farming remains
what it always was, nobody earns much money. The young people won't stay in the
village, because they want to earn more money to satisfy all their new needs.
· If the village does not
modernize itself, if there are no better houses, if there is no pure water, no
dispensary, living conditions are difficult. The young people want to go away to
live in better conditions.
· If there is no life in the
village, if there are no groups for work, no associations for leisure, the young
people become bored, they are attracted by the life and amusements of town.
· If the people leave, there is
no future for the village, little by little, it will die. The farmers, the
grown- up men, will become disheartened, they won't want to work for a dying
village, they won't make an effort any more for a village whose children have
gone away.
To get the young people interested in agriculture, to encourage
them to stay in the village, farmers must modernize agriculture. They must build
up modern farm businesses that will ensure a better future for the young.
What is a living village?

work and marketing, leisure associations.
It is a village where the living conditions are good: where
housing has been improved, where the rules of health are respected, where
children and ill people are cared
for.
