Why Agriculture?

Agriculture has always been the key to the basis of human civilization. Its history dates back thousands of years, and has come to define the establishment of the human culture on earth. Farming and husbandry rely on climates, geographic locations and cultures. They are also the primer elements of our very existence, since if there were no proper food to eat, there would not be LIFE. During the last century, plant breeding, pesticides and fertilizers (agrochemicals) and technological improvements, which constitute modern agronomy, have sharply increased yields from cultivation. In the developed world today, industrial agriculture, supported by various technologies, is largely based on modern farming, with a growing support for sustainable agriculture such as organic farming.
