Chaophin Seth, a young farmer from South Guadalcanal, serves as a role model for the youth in the country. Growing up in a family with a farming history, he started his own farm at a young age. In his village, they practice traditional shifting and relocating of farms within allocated plots to avoid distant or environmental destruction. Despite weather challenges, Chaophin established his farm on a sloped area with proper drainage systems. To minimize pests and destructive events, he integrates his farm products and employs the handpicking method on his cabbage plots. Chaophin emphasizes the value of traditional knowledge, urging other youths to learn from elders for the benefit of society. Audio Player
