Despise the advances made in agriculture many people around the world still go hungry. Why is this the case. What can be done to solve this problem?

It is a well-known fact that

agriculture

is a primary need in survival for people around the world. With the advancement in technologies, the world is becoming a better place,

although

proper utilization of those techniques is not being well implemented. The primary reason for

agriculture

to not flourish as expected is due to the regular use of artificial fertilizers and pesticides in bulk. Due to

this

, the quality of soil deteriorates which in turn results in poor yield in crops.

This

problem is widely seen and is said to be the root cause of the scene. In the country like Nepal alone, more than 50% of the total yield has lessened since the past 10 years.

Furthermore

, people are not aware of the proper utilization of natural sources to benefit farming and

agriculture

. Lack of

knowledge

in the science behind

agriculture

and crop yield

also

affects overall production. To exemplify, most of the land-locked countries has less access to education which affects farming as well. Farmers in those countries focus on the traditional approach to produce any type of crops which might be inappropriate. These issues evolve lower production in overall. The

first

and the foremost point to be noted in solving the problem of low yield is to reduce and slowly abandon the

usage

of fertilizers and harmful pesticides. Many governments around the world have initiated law and rule to limit the

usage

of pesticides which in turn showed positive results in overall crop yield. In the United States, the government has declared that the use of man-made supplements in farming should be done with proper consultation and recommendations, which in the long run is suitable for both the farmer and country as a whole.

In addition

to

this

, the circulation of techniques and proper process in farming should be made to benefit cultivators in maximizing their yield. Little

knowledge

is dangerous and there is not an exception in the case of

agriculture

. So, proper

knowledge

and reduced

usage

of harmful pesticides might provide positive results in the future. In conclusion,

although

there has been a significant change in way of doing

agriculture

with the advancement of technologies, lack of proper

knowledge

and increased

usage

of toxic pesticides has deteriorated the overall production. Focus on these issues is a must to get a positive side on the field of

agriculture

.
