Food is the third most important thing for living beings to provide energy and development, maintain life, or stimulate growth after air and water. In fact, it is one of the most complicated sets of chemicals.
Food plays an important role in the promotion of health and disease prevention.
In general, it consists of essential nutrients, such as carbohydrates, proteins, fats, minerals and vitamins which are consumed to provide nutritional support for an organism and ingested by an organism and assimilated by the organism’s cells to sustain health. These nutritious foods are in the form of grains, pulses, fruits, vegetables, oils, etc.
We must know that the terms ‘food’ and ‘nutrition’ are sometimes used synonymously, which is not correct completely. Food is a composite mixture of various ingredients that are consumed for nutrition.
On the other hand, nutrition connotes a dynamic process in which swallowed food is utilized by the human body for nourishment.
For thousands of years, agriculture has played an important role in everyday life. Before agriculture, hunting and gathering enabled humans to survive. It wasn’t until the transition to the planned sowing and harvesting of crops that humans began to thrive. Humans developed tools and practices to improve agricultural output with more efficient means of sustaining themselves. From there, innovations that created industries led to the modern era.
Today, the importance of agriculture in everyday life can’t be minimized. Without the agriculture sector, activities such as getting dressed for work and cleaning the home wouldn’t be possible. Here are examples of the agricultural products we use in our everyday lives:
80 medical professionals from a medical college attended a workshop conducted by VOICE Trust. 20 more students from a different college also joined. They shared their opinion that wherever they may go and what profession they choose, they are going to take food. So, they promised to do small-scale agriculture in their areas in the form of terrace farming. They can at least produce vegetables and crops for their own families. They have also promised to plant and maintain 10 trees each. Totalling 1000 saplings for this year.
Thank you so much dear supporters of VOICE Trust. Thank you all for the encouragement you have to us all through these years. We are happy to share that we are entering into the 40th year of social service.
