Sustainable agriculture integrates three main goals which are economic profitability, environmental health, economic as well as equity.

Industrial agriculture is about industrial ways of agriculture promote the usage of chemical fertilizers and pesticides on the massive scale and sustainable agriculture, on the second hand, encourages growing a number of crops and crop rotation.

The supply of secure, clean, sustainable energy is arguably the most important scientific and technical challenge facing humanity in the 21st century. Rising living standards of a growing world population will cause global energy consumption to double by mid-century and triple by the end of the century. Even in light of unprecedented conservation, the additional energy needed is simply not attainable from long discussed sources these include nuclear, biomass, wind, geothermal and hydroelectric. The global appetite for energy is simply too much. Petroleum-based fuel sources (i.e., coal, oil and gas) could be increased. However, deleterious consequences resulting from external drivers of economy, the environment, and global security dictate that this energy need be met by renewable and sustainable sources. The dramatic increase in global energy need is driven by 3 billion low-energy users in the non-legacy world and by 3 billion people yet to inhabit the planet over the next half century. The capture and storage of solar energy at the individual level personalized solar energy drives inextricably towards the heart of this energy challenge by addressing the triumvirate of secure, carbon neutral and plentiful energy. This talk will place the scale of the global energy issue in perspective and then discuss how personalized energy (especially for the non-legacy world) can provide a path to a solution to the global energy challenge. Daniel G. Nocera is the Henry Dreyfus Professor of Energy at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Director of the Solar Revolutions Project and Director of the Eni Solar Frontiers Center at MIT. His group pioneered studies of the basic mechanisms of energy conversion in biology and chemistry. He has recently accomplished a solar fuels process that captures many of the elements of photosynthesis outside of the leaf. This discovery sets the stage for a storage mechanism for the large scale, distributed, deployment of solar energy. He has b

The major question of how to increase crop yield dramatically, has been solved by the new upcoming biotechnological methods, there are various threats posed by these methods when it comes to genetically modified plants.

Ways to increase crop production includes enhanced utilization and administration of agricultural biodiversity assets, (for example, seeds, fertilization, gainful fauna, and so forth), to attain higher yields while advancing the practicality of the cultivating frameworks.

Natural farming is popular a sustainable farming mainly for the reason that it results in protection of the environment. Trivedi Science is a pioneering scientific research organization aimed the high quality of produce as well-retinas soil fertility without any harmful effects.

Organic farming is basically called natural farming it helps in fixing nitrogen content in the soil due to which fertility is enhanced naturally without any side effects. trivedi foundation is a scientific research organization that is engaged in the study of existing farming methods and techniques.

December 9th, 02005 - Sam Harris"The View From The End Of The World"This is an audio only presentation. This talk took place in the Conference Center Golden Gate Room, San Francisco. Quote: With gentle demeanor and tight argument, Sam Harris carried an overflow audience into the core of one of the crucial issues of our time: What makes some religions lethal? How do they employ aggressive irrationality to justify threatening and controlling non-believers as well as believers? What should be our response? Harris began with Christianity. In the US, Christians use irrational arguments about a soul in the 150 cells of a 3-day old human embryo to block stem cell research that might alleviate the suffering of millions. In Africa, Catholic doctrine uses tortured logic to actively discourage the use of condoms in countries ravaged by AIDS. "This is genocidal stupidity," Harris said. Faith trumps rational argument. Common-sense ethical intuition is blinded by religious metaphysics. In the US, 22% of the population are CERTAIN that Jesus is coming back in the next 50 years, and another 22% think that it's likely. The good news of Christ's return, though, can only occur following desperately bad news. Mushroom clouds would be welcomed. "End time thinking," Harris said, "is fundamentally hostile to creating a sustainable future." Harris was particularly critical of religious moderates who give cover to the fundamentalists by not challenging them. The moderates say that all is justified because religion gives people meaning in their life. "But what would they say to a guy who believes there's a diamond the size of a refrigerator buried in his backyard? The guy digs out there every Sunday with his family, cherishing the meaningthe quest gives them." "I've read the books," Harris said. "God is not a moderate." The Bible gives strict instructions to kill various kinds of sinners, and their relatives, and on occasion their entire towns. Yet slavery is challenged nowhere in the New or

Governance, sustainability and environment. A new approach to information and publishing

When it comes to how to increase crop production, two major options come into play. One is that the area of production has to be increased and the productivity of the crops in existing crop lands has to be increased.

The field of agriculture encompasses a wide range of activities wherein the cultivation of plants, animals, fungi and other life forms is done for fulfilling the requirements of food, medicine, fiber, bio fuel etc. to sustain and improve human life.

The poultry industry today is dealing with the pestering need to have improved research in order to give sustainable poultry production. So, if you have a poultry farming business plan, you should do market research and gain every information regarding poultry farming because in future it gives you more profit due to rapid consumption of beef.

There was a time, when people knew nothing about farming or insecticides and the pesticides. People are now trying to go organic and finding natural ways and natural things, these days, so those who are all for the natural way of living, Natural farming is your thing.
