Yours Truly - An Eternal Saga Of Hearts

I am no author who dives deep down into the ocean of affluent thoughts and writes great sagas to last eternally. I am just a humble teacher with a heart overwhelmed with the memories of my students who came into my life in school as small children and stayed back forever even when they grew up. They walked side by side with me on the road of life sharing all smiles and sorrows. They say a teacher imparts knowledge. Yes! they do, but it is also true that some students teach truly beautiful lessons, make a difference in life, support, applaud, inspire and help in forging an authentic teacher too. 'Yours Truly' is me, whom the magnanimous provider blessed with many students who made me a teacher in true sense. This book is a mark of gratitude to all my boys and girls who were, are and for sure will be with me as my inspiration. Indebted I am to them all for not only being there and keeping connected with me with all their care, love and concern but also teaching me so many precious lessons to abide.

THE FAMILY BUSINESS: IS THERE A FUTURE FOR SMALL FARMS?

The United Nations declared 2014 the International Year of Family Farming. Although many forms of production were once family-based, agriculture is now one of the few that are still dominated by families. Because family farms are so prevalent, making them more productive could help combat poverty and hunger in many rural areas around the world. Family farms are mostly small in scale, but they are highly diverse in other ways, and their pathways out of poverty will vary. The feature article in this issue of Insights looks at the prospects for supporting family farmers and, in some cases, encouraging workers to move off of farms in favor of other opportunities.
