Most of the time, these small-scale farmers face challenges like food security and sustainability. Also, there are problems like overexploitation of natural resources, climate change, and increasing population. The main talking point is whether these alternative methods are sustainable when compared to conventional hi-tech agriculture.I came across a statistic stating that small-scale farmers produce food for 70% of the global population. However, they are usually some of the world's most food-insecure people. What alternatives should be adopted to improve subsistence farmers' yields?
