Hero. Little mathematician [00:24:21] of Afghanistan, what greater honor [00:24:24] than to be in the first [00:24:28] international exhibition of agriculture and [00:24:32] livestock of our beloved country Afghanistan, in [00:24:35] your presence, to speak about lands [00:24:39] that can build the economic future [00:24:42] of my country. Agriculture is not [00:24:45] just cultivation and harvesting, [00:24:48] it is the economic pillar, the [00:24:51] source of livelihood, and one [00:24:54] of the most important ways for our [00:24:58] beloved country Afghanistan to achieve [00:25:01] self-sufficiency. Our beloved country [00:25:03] Afghanistan has a product [00:25:07] from each province to be proud [00:25:10] of. From the grapes and pomegranates [00:25:12] of Kandahar to the apricots and peaches [00:25:15] of Badakhshan, from almonds and pistachios [00:25:18] to the valuable fresh and dried fruits [00:25:22] of Afghanistan, and most importantly, the [00:25:25] saffron of Herat, which has made [00:25:28] the name of Afghanistan shine in [00:25:31] global markets. But behind every [00:25:35] wheat field, every fruit orchard, and every [00:25:39] valuable product, [00:25:41] there are the hands of a powerful and [00:25:44] hardworking farmer. A farmer [00:25:47] who, with his efforts, makes this land prosperous [00:25:51] and makes family tables colorful. So, [00:25:55] supporting agriculture [00:25:57] means supporting farmers. Supporting [00:26:01] farmers means supporting national [00:26:04] production, and supporting national [00:26:06] production means moving our beloved country [00:26:10] Afghanistan towards self-sufficiency. [00:26:13] Let us join hands and support farmers and national [00:26:17] production so that the lands [00:26:20] of Afghanistan become more prosperous, [00:26:23] the tables of the people more blessed, [00:26:26] and the future of our country brighter. [00:26:29] Afghanistan is our common [00:26:33] home. The prosperity of this home is the common responsibility of all [00:26:37] of us. And peace be upon you and the mercy and blessings of Allah. [00:26:56] May Allah, the Lord of Glory, grant our country [00:26:59] such. [00:27:03] In the program, the number of [00:27:06] Afghanistan [00:27:08] General Directorate of Radio.
