Growing food, either commercially or as a hobby, is one of the most satisfying things you can do. It is, however, not without challenges. Protection against natural or human-made threats, irrigation, or other soil treatments must be done with care.
Agriculture And Gardening Makes The World Go Round
Agriculture is producing food, feed, fiber, and many other desired products by cultivating certain plants. The practice of agriculture is also known as ‘farming,’ while scientists, inventors, and others devoted to improving farming methods and implements are also said to be engaged in agriculture.
Subsistence farming; who farms a small area with limited resource inputs and produces only enough food to meet the needs of his/her family. At the other end is commercial intensive agriculture, including industrial agriculture. Such farming involves large fields, large resource inputs (pesticides, fertilizers, etc.), and a high mechanization level.
Nowadays, critical attention is given to industrial agriculture. Alternatives are proposed, such as regenerative agriculture, drones, smart techniques, and blockchain. The use of fertilizer and water in large quantities is also criticized. The risks of monocultures are large. In combination with the depletion of agricultural land, the reduction of insects, and climate change, it is necessary to change our view on industrial agriculture and growing crops.
