Farming is acknowledged all over the world as being one of the most fundamental class of occupation. However, the current generation tends to gravitate towards fancier fields where the works involve fancy gadgets and more luxurious surroundings. Farming seems to be losing its place in society, but its importance is still evident and keeps growing. Currently, the world is trying to achieve the "green dream" reality, of which, Suparatana Bencharongkul in Thailand has arisen, and her mission is to drive society towards achieving the collective goal.

Suparatana's love and respect for farmers started when she was very young.  Her father, Boonchai Benchrongukl, a Thai telecom billionaire, believed that farmers are the most important and thriving people in society, and these very values have been Suparatana's guiding light.  Despite her comfortable surroundings, Suparatana does not mind getting her hands dirty in the fields to understand how farmers carry out their activities, such as applying fertilizer and other essential farming exercises. Her concern is that many farmers use estimation methods, which Supratana and her team of experts believe there is room for increased efficiency by merging technology and traditional farming. In short, she is pioneering an agriculture revolution in Thailand.  

In order to increase production efficiency, Supratana is introducing modern technology systems, which is considered the beginning of a new agricultural revolution in Thailand.

With her father's telecom background, she had the opportunity and an advantage of impacting change in a way that many can't.  For example, she was able to spread the knowledge and ultimately lead by example through her social media platform such as Instagram.  From being one of the earliest adopters for Instagram in Thailand, Suparatana's account @nina_neungb evolved from being a lifestyle influencer to an agriculture guru.  Through these efforts, her goals, which seemed as a mere dream, is becoming a reality.

Suparatana's main aim is to make farming a profitable business to keep farmers in it in the future. Through her apps and services, farmers can handle logistics, optimize production more efficiently, and increase their yields, thus making more money.

Suparatana is achieving these goals by technological disruption such as predictive analysis data collection and alternative farming methods. These methods help improve the crop qualities making them yield more increasing quality and quantity.
