- Describe two 'beneficial' aspects from the last 10,000 years of humanity, as well as two 'dis-advantageous' aspects. Agriculture should be your guiding point here.The Green Revolution depended on: a traditional farming techniques such as contour farming and crop rotation. b the use of high-yielding crop varieties as well as synthetic fertilizers and pesticides. c crop varieties genetically modified to deal with problems such as drought or pests. d Increasing the diversity of crops planted on a given plot to maximize productivity per acre.Many cultures and religions have customs which deal with the way they use the land. For example, in Judaism, it is required that a field be left fallow (unplanted) every seventh year. What is one beneficial effect of customs like this? A) They prevent the land from being overused. B) They cause less competition among farmers. C) They make the land more valuable to farmers. D) They force people to farm more recklessly at other times. (Not Graded)
- Geographer, historian, and author Jared Diamond (1987) once referred to agriculture as "the worst mistake in the history of the human race." Given what you have learned about the health consequences of the domestication of plants and animals for humans, how would you respond to his statement? You may find this article helpful in your discussion response: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4163920/In the near future, what business would be suitable to establish using animal resources and its products without compromising the principle of sustainable farming and why?Why is the change in human footprint relatively low for the most agriculturally suitable land? a) Very little of the land is highly suitable for agriculture b) Cities put little pressure on the environment, and tend to be in very agriculturally suitable areas c) Pressure was already high there
