KIDS TRIVIA

Detailed explanation-1: -Urban farming essentially refers to growing plants and keeping animals that produce food within a city. It may encompass processing and then distributing that food throughout the city. It may or may not be organic, but most instances of urban or city farming can at the least be classified as ‘sustainable’.

Detailed explanation-2: -Contrary to traditional farming, urban farming is the agriculture of food in urban areas that is small space friendly, uses fewer water resources, fewer food miles, more sustainable packaging, and emits less GHG. With slow steps, urban farming is solidifying its place in the larger food system.

Detailed explanation-3: -Farmers need to borrow money to buy inputs like seeds, fertilizers and pesticides. Sometimes, banks do not lend money to farmers because they fear that they cannot repay the principle amount in periodic interests since agriculture is a seasonal business and the income is not fixed.
