🌱 My Journey in Agriculture: From Dream to Reality 🌱 Back in 2015, I embarked on a journey that I didn’t fully understand at the time – I wanted to take up farming as a career. However, without a clear purpose and facing financial constraints, my dream had to be put on hold. Fast forward to 2018, I moved to Dubai and found joy in my work there. Yet, the call of agriculture never left me. By 2022, my passion for farming resurfaced stronger than ever, and from that moment on, I have not rested in my pursuit. Today, I am thrilled to share that my purpose has crystallized. I now see how farming can contribute to global food security. As a young person, I am committed to empowering youth, fostering community engagement, and creating employment opportunities for the younger generation. Our company is now poised to produce both locally and internationally. We have secured contracts for fish farming that will benefit local and international markets. Additionally, we have secured a contract for fine beans. I am excited to connect with like-minded individuals to bring about positive change. Together, we can make a significant impact on the world and Africa. I am also targeting the UAE to diversify and bring fresh produce to the region. Let's change the world through agriculture! 🌍💪 #Agriculture #FoodSecurity #YouthEmpowerment #CommunityEngagement #Sustainability #Farming #Dubai #Africa #UAE #GlobalImpact

"In today's discussion, we emphasized three key points. Firstly, Brazil's pivotal role in regional food security due to its abundant agricultural resources and commitment to sustainable farming practices. Secondly, the UAE's strategic position as a hub for Brazilian products, facilitating their distribution to markets across the Middle East, Africa, and Asia. Finally, the importance of collaborative efforts, spearheaded by the food and beverage group, to foster dialogue and address challenges in enhancing trade relations between Brazil and the UAE for the benefit of regional food security and economic growth."
