Something that is related to my tradition which is lost due to globalisation - Farming

From the past, a few thousand years ago, in order to obtain food, people will farm for a living. Farmers will have a plot of land and workers will come and work on the land. The farmers will then sell the harvested crops to others and this is how the cycle of farming will continue. Hence, we can tell that farming was a very integral part of every tradition and farming has helped civilization until today. However, farming has been slowly dying off ever since globalization and now farming is deemed as the job of a laborer and an uneducated person. 

This reminds me of a time when I used to live in Hong Kong when I was around 4 or 5 years old. We were living there because of my father's work and I can still remember that we used to own a very small area of land in the agriculture area of Hong Kong. The entire farm was run by a couple and we had a small area of land where we could plant whatever we wanted. My family and I planted many seeds and grew many vegetables. We used to visit there every weekend to see how our plants were faring. It was a very memorable experience and we would cook the vegetables that we grew at the farm. But when we moved back to Singapore, we gave up that small land and we heard last year that the government wanted that farm to develop and construct new buildings, so the couple had to eventually give up that farm to the government. 

This shows how globalization is affecting traditions and soon nobody would remember the traditional way of faming if it is not preserved. The introduction of machinery into farming is convenient but the traditions might be lost forever if nobody works hard to preserve it.
