confirmed cases since august with the death toll at about $1400.00 so the headlines keep it here on al-jazeera more to come the stream is next. to al-jazeera. problems of besides the instability is corruption we listen to. the united states and president trump into conflict we meet with global newsmakers and talk about the stories that matter just 0. i welcome to the stream i'm really today we look at how millennial is have the potential to revolutionize agriculture in africa and ask what's needed to make farming jobs cool send your thoughts through twitter and you tube. africa has about 2 thirds of the world's uncultivated farmland but precious few

people are choosing agricultural careers for years young people across the continent have seen white collar jobs as a mark of success with farming often viewed as an unstable and precarious existence but now a social media campaign fronted by nigerian musician mr easy and choreographer sherry silver aims to show that farming means freedom. you know. like when you. i mean.

you can't help but dance a little bit of the campaign is called our future is here and is led by the international fund for agricultural development or found people around the world have answered the challenge from mr easy and cherry dance for change and i posted videos on tech talk and instagram for more on the campaign sherri silver joins us from los angeles as well as being an award winning dancer and creative director she is advocate for rural youth will also hear from. a coffee farmer and entrepreneur who leads communal shambo coffee and tanzania he joins us from berlin amanda my he is a farmer and advocate for youth and cultural agro in agricultural initiatives she's

in nairobi and welcome to the stream everyone knows cherie i want to get started with you because a lot of people in our community probably know your work you are the creative force behind the moves in this viral music video child this is america it addressed racism it addressed gun violence it won awards and now you're using your moves performing what led to this campaign. so my roots are in farming my grandfather was a farmer he had cows and goats and my grandmother would yams and she still has been on the trees so you know it's personal for me and i flew out to cameroon when. you know i met some farmers and they just inspired me and i felt like i had to get involved to let the wall know that farming can actually and global hunger because

through farming and and growing crops is where we begin. yeah i just have to be involved that it's having to be involved i mean and i know you had a similar moment when you were out of conference and you realize the linkage between farming and humanity you talk to us about what it was for you that sparked your interest and why you should get involved. ok so 1st and foremost. i because she is the bedrock of our existence because without food we all stuck and we realize that then like in kenya whenever we have mine drought it's considered and national disaster and having that in with the agricultural finance corporation i came to realize that indeed farming is very very poor and the young person can indeed play a rule in changing this narrative because it's food we have power to. yet

we see views like this i want to share this with all of you this is from. on twitter who says we from this part of the world have been tuned from childhood to believe that the farmer is a poor person and a literate or a dropout making it the least attractive thing to the child growing up what are some of the things that are being put in place to change that perception so i'm going to give this one to you because you are a farmer. how do you change that view is this something that you had to deal with in your own life. thanks very good for having me and thanks for the rest of the. great. what was just a. couple days ago it was for a link between 70. and one of the options that. you don't do. because they. ask me what's make sure and this. and that that was the 2nd question

. and i think we need to take it to ownership. if you want to be i mean you got to be a professional and you can be anything you want to be as long as you can be. respected as a professional. i think you're going to be anything they want to be so. i think one of our community members but agree with that so i want to play a video comment from king jordan i'm audie he's a dancer in lagos nigeria and here is what he said at the string. hello guys enjoyed a fabulous dances he did as he just said that he must have been if you so funny because so many new sports suffer too tatty said innate. disaffection lack of shelter because c. thesis won't buy from me because hips openable me by fahmi we can help create some more food for younger children and families so let's help to increase funding

because it will be put in place the small farm house the view. so cherie he and his group actually participated in the campaign you can see them there so this is the dance for change challenge. with the blocks dancers in lagos and they posted this video from his dance group talk to us about what you feel when you see people taking them on clearly they know the importance of this they're taking your message on. i think it's really important because as we mentioned farming is often. on the lamb or but it's not just about one thing in the field it's actually about your permission as well because it doesn't just stop. feeding your family but you can actually feed your community through this and i think that's really important and africa has so much untouched land so we should be

we should be producing more and importing more. but yes i mean it means a lot to see young people taking this on and being a voice for the allston for gossoon use in farms that don't necessarily have the platform to give their views and the more you get involved the more that policymakers and leaders can invest in through you so you are in cameroon as you mentioned you were carrying out dance workshops what were you hearing from people the farmers entrepreneurs and we're talking to what were some of their challenges were they telling you. yes so some of the challenges that for example being in the rural areas of roads are often bad so they will be able to do things but then when it rains because the roads and pave the way not be able to transport. the goods to the city. another thing i think is like young people they want to have gone they want to enjoy themselves they want to go to the cinema they. want to

enjoy the money that they make from farming but sometimes they don't have the resources for example internet connection and the technologies to make them want to stay in the rule areas and so they'll feel like they need to move. i definitely think technology was one of the issues that was why i want to share with her this from taipei she says i took up farming a year and a half ago mainly because i was tired of city life and needed a more natural way now i've. lies the potential it has i'm currently designing a model that speaks to africa that is one tweet i want to share with you this next one though this is from someone who says out of kenya many people there have left farming like for me in kenya the government isn't doing enough many of our crops are rotting and some after harvest we've got no where to take them because the government is still importing stuff it's sickening to me so you see the the 2 sides of that spectrum there amanda talked to us about what this person says they were

facing in kenya the idea of crops rotting things not being grown there are things being imported are those issues that you've seen yes that's true that indeed the whole value chain is not transparent 8 and 2 we don't have into connecting parts and we find that on the other side of the spectrum on this growth without the consumers side of things and then we also have some punitive bill to time it call it that really punish the farmer and we have even a time that on social media we had the hash tag save because of some bills that will passed for instance one was i'm not applying organic money on you farm which was quite punitive and then we also have the problem of infrastructure and cartels so when farmers grow and they don't have a way to get their product the produce to the markets you find that there's an

influx of these products and. it's in floods or sky city and we find that often suffers when that happens so also the government itself is not really a good buy we've had several instances we have fun as have not been paid especially for mayes. it has been a challenge in kenya we've had may's directing us. so it's been quite a challenge for thinking. yeah yeah i think sometimes we do too much pressure. and i think. it's a constant. that you know when you start changing opposition of what. we take ownership trends and various markets different local changes are you can improve your croak. croak very different ways that there's

a certain. you with those who have to take responsibility in. and that's living in that from the age that we are it's never changed simply because you took our list of schools and made them to where they were think we could go back in the exact same place in the mold of our generation how things. are so one of the treats that i read earlier was from nicholas who was explaining why people in kenya are leaving the farming industry in his perspective and he says unfortunately for him he's already sold his farm to a real estate agent so he's out of the game but this person this is tried to his size the biggest challenge for them in farming in africa is balancing production vs available markets we have to come up with a system of linking farmers with markets and help them plan their production accordingly this will make farming attractive to the you.
