Intensive agriculture
Intensive agriculture is a modern farming approach characterized by maximizing crop yields through high-input practices. It involves the extensive use of advanced technologies, synthetic fertilizers, pesticides, and machinery to optimize productivity. This method aims to cultivate a significant amount of produce on limited land, emphasizing efficiency and output. While intensive agriculture has led to increased food production to meet growing global demands, it also raises concerns about environmental sustainability and biodiversity loss due to chemical usage. Farmers practicing intensive agriculture often employ precision farming techniques, such as data-driven decision-making and smart irrigation, to enhance resource efficiency. Striking a balance between meeting food demands and ensuring environmental stewardship is a key challenge in the ongoing discourse on the future of agriculture.
