Why do haitian farmers use the phrase “the earth is tired”?

Haitian farmers use the phrase “the earth is tired” to describe the major agricultural problems Haiti is facing now.

 Rice makes up 20 percent of the typical Haitian’s diet, and that percentage is growing. In 1981 Haiti imported 18,000 tons of rice. Now the country imports close to 400,000 tons annually. Less than a quarter is homegrown.

Based on the statistics, there is a major agricultural crisis happening in Haiti right now. I hope my answer has come to your help. Thank you for posting your question here in .
