Of course they would be interested in sectors that could bring them most money. The younger generation is always experimenting and trying out new ideas to make some profits. If the government can not help the farmers and the agricultural sector at large, not even the older generations would take interest in investing in such things anymore.
In an economist perspective, this might be a sign of something that should be addressed soon. In our perspective as investors, it is practical and smart and thus should be void of any emotional nor sentimental value.
However, it is very unfortunate, in reality the younger generation's interest in getting involved in the agricultural industry is very minimal. And of course I say this not without reason, I see this reality very clearly, because I live in an agricultural country. Young people are very reluctant to enter the agricultural industry, because the profession of a farmer is often considered lowly. Even though going into the agricultural industry seems profitable, because their prestige is very high, they prefer to work as office employees, even though the wages they earn are relatively small. I don't know what the conditions for food security will be like in the future, but if you look at the existing reality, there is very little interest in becoming a farmer and land continues to shrink. If this problem is not addressed immediately, perhaps the food security situation in the future will be more difficult than today.
