I REFER to the letter “Youths needed in food production” (The Star, May 10). Malaysia has not paid enough emphasis on the importance of national food security.

We should adopt modern technology and increase farm size to reduce cost and increase profitability. This would remove the image of 3D and poverty among farmers and attract investment and youths into agricultural food production.
