How do traditional methods compare to modern ones?

Traditional methods are often rooted in history, cultural practices and have been passed down from generation to generation. These methods strive to maintain the same tried and tested approach to solving a particular problem or achieving expected outcomes while relying on manual labour and minimal use of advanced technologies. On the other hand, modern methods are more advanced and rely on sophisticated technologies, highly skilled labour, and extensive research and development. In comparison to traditional methods, modern methods are faster, more efficient and provide better precision, consistency and quality of output. However, traditional methods have their unique benefits by often being more sustainable, cost-effective and community-driven. Hence, it is essential to find a balance between the two methods to enable development while preserving traditional knowledge and practices.
