To feed the increasing world population we must:
• Produce and equitably distribute more food than ever before.
• Do this in a environmentally sustainable way.

FOUR Types of Agriculture Systems:
Industrialized agriculturein developed countries
Land
Labor
Capital
Fossil fuelenergy
•Uses large amounts of fossil fuels energy, water, commercial fertilizer, and pesticides to produce huge quantities of single crops or livestock animals for sale.
• 25% of croplands in developed countries.

•Uses large amounts of human input and draft labor, water, and fertilizer, to produce enough food to feed their families and sell for income.
• In North America 2.4% of labor force is used in agriculture vs 45-65% in developing countries.

•Growing cash crops on large monoculture plantations, mostly for sale.
• A large amount of livestock production is industrialized. Mostly pigs and chicken are raised in densely populated pens and cages and are fed mostly grain from croplands.

• Uses mostly human labor and draft animals to produce only enough crops or livestock for a farm family’s survival.
• Practiced by 2.7 billion people (44% of the world’s population).
•Provide 20% of the world’s food supply.

Rangelands• About 40% of the earth’s ice-free land.• This land provides forage or vegetation
for grazing and browsing animals.

Fisheries• The world’s third major food-producing
system.• 55% of the annual commercial catch comes
from the ocean.• Harvesting methods:
] Trawler fishing] Purse-seine] Longlineing] Drift-net

Comparing Food ProductionTerrestrial
• Food is harvested from low trophic levels.
• More efficient fixing of solar energy by photosynthesis.
Aquatic• Food is harvested
from higher trophic levels mostly because of human taste.
• Energy conversions are more efficient along the food chain.

Try new foods• Increase cultivation of less widely
known plants to supplement or replace staple foods.• Insects – microlivestock – could be an
important potential source of protein.
