EMPOWERING YOUTH THROUGH AGRICULTURE
Incredible Goa
|July 2024
In a time when many of today's youth shy away from farming, leading to the transformation of vast farmlands into concrete jungles, one young man decided to defy the trend and carve out his own path in agriculture.
The Incredible Goa team had the pleasure of meeting Nathan, a trailblazer in modern farming, to uncover the inspiring details of his journey. Here are the highlights from our exclusive interview.
Nathan hails from the quaint village of Taleigao, nestled close to the capital city and the famous Miramar Beach. "My name is Nathan D'Souza, and I grew up in the beautiful village of Taleigao, Goa. I completed my schooling at The Rosary High School in Cujira and am currently pursuing my BBA degree from S.S. Dempo College, also in Cujira. I'm now in my final year," Nathan shares.
When asked about his foray into farming and what motivated his decision, Nathan explained that his passion for agriculture began at the young age of 14. "My interest in farming was ignited when I discovered a barren field in Taleigao that had remained uncultivated for over a decade," Nathan recounts. Distressed by the neglect of such fertile land, he resolved to take matters into his own hands.
