Tell I.T. fella about farming is barking at the wrong tree, though people can choose to divert to farming but its a dirty job that parents of the previous generation who brought up their children not to inherit.
For that reason, we import a lot of foreign cheap labor in plantations and many farmlands are now concrete community. This is called development and we haven't reach a stage where imported food are too expensive and increased the value of local farm products, soon it will happen when jobs are scarce or it become a lucrative business.
