agriculture
faces
many
challenges.
Lack
of
economic
sustainability,
poor
community
support
and
planning,
growing
rate
of
abandoned
land,
and
shortage
of
skilled
successors⎯are
all
factors
that
have
inspired
wa.la
to
provide
the
agricultural
community
with
a
solu2on.
By
providing

and
comprehensive
support,
wa.la
aims

worldwide.
Sustainable
farming
is
a
complex
endeavor.
