Is A Dignified Future With Dreams Harmful or Utopia?

This photo: Great, self-propelled air-powered robots explode on acres of parallel fields under a black sky that pollutes damage. All the trees have been cut down and no animals can be seen. Pesticides are overused because people are no longer in the field. The machines do their job – they produce a lot of food to feed a growing number of people – but this happens naturally.

Or consider another future: Small robots produce a wide variety of plants, working around trees, rivers, and wildlife. They are driven by renewable energy, such as the sun, wind, or water. Electronic medicine is a thing of the past, because robots help keep the environment cohesive, which is why pests and superweeds are preserved. It is a future Garden of Eden, rich in cloudy skies, green pastures, and fresh air.

In what country would you like your food to be grown?

This is the future of the mindset of Thomas Daum, an economist at the University of Hohenheim, who works in food security and agricultural agriculture in places like Uganda and Bangladesh. In July, he published a file on a thinking piece inside Events in Ecology & Evolution which set out the twin vision of nature or dystopia in an attempt to discuss how agricultural change – also known as Agriculture 4.0 – could shape our future.

“Modern agriculture needs to change,” said Daum, who is concerned that the impact of climate change on the environment is not being adequately addressed. Ways to reduce climate change stated in the Paris agreement it would not be possible without changes in the way we eat food. “Even if you change the rest of the sector,” he says, “unless you change the agriculture, we will still miss the goal.”

Even in a world without big robots, large-scale farming methods have already changed the environment. “Organic farming is done intentionally by the environment,” says Emily Reisman, an environmental specialist at Buffalo University. We get rid of wildlife, degrade the soil, and clean the soil for good nutrition, and spray pesticides to prevent pests and diseases.

When we add existing agricultural technologies, it only gets worse. Machines such as tractors, harvesters, and seed drones often require a well-maintained environment to operate, which is why the unexpected needs to be eliminated as much as possible in developed agriculture. This could mean that each year they enter different cultivated areas and grow smaller, everything burns at the same time, as well as the use of pesticides, pesticides, and fungicides to match. This stability is due to our need to use agricultural methods, says University of Rhode Island agricultural expert Patrick Baur. “This is agriculture and the environment as well as all the farming methods that are designed to meet the needs of the machinery,” he says.

The instability of the environment in the need for sustainable agriculture has contributed significantly to the destruction of the ecosystem, plant species and animals needed for the ecosystem. Biodiversity protects the aquatic environment, reduces global warming by trapping carbon in the soil (instead of the atmosphere), and ensures the presence of pests that carry plants and natural animals to reduce the presence of pests. “Machines greatly reduce the number of species of insects, microorganisms, and plants and animals,” says Baur, as many need to be removed in order to function properly.

But why do we do that needs food processor? It’s a financial issue. In order to meet the growing demand, agriculture needs more people. Food is cheaper than in the past, forcing farmers to take produce at a much lower profit margin. As a result, if farm workers make less money and quit the job to make better purchases, farmers may be able to use machinery to fill the gaps.
