 "Agriculture
represents a crucial sector that underpins our
population growth and well-being. It has been
providing nourishment for generations. According to
the United Nations, agricultural development is one
of the most powerful tools to combat extreme
poverty, boost prosperity, and feed the global
population.. However, our current methods of food
production, including monocropping and intensive
tilling, have degraded over one-third of the world’s
productive topsoil while failing to provide the
agricultural yields necessary to sustain the growing
global population."
