agriculture with raising household livestock. These livestock cannot be maintained on the fodder produced on arable land alone. In Nepal‚ agricultural crops are seldom grown specifically for fodder production except in some small areas. Because of increasing pressure of human population and also because of higher income from cereal and cash crops than from forage crops‚ more agriculture area cannot be set apart for fodder production. In most of the areas‚ cereal straw and dry grass which are very poor in protein

In 2007 58.6 % over one half of the world’s soybean crop was genetically modified. Soybeans are the most genetically modified crop in the world. 40 million tonnes of soy material has been used has been imported in 2007 by the EU states. Scientists modify soybeans for many different reasons. Scientists modify soybeans so tocopherol levels

Considering this‚ full frame lenses have a bigger image circle than the image circle on crop lenses. This is the key difference between these two lens types and we have seen this in the many examples of cropped vs full frame. As I said earlier‚ full frame lenses have no problem adjusting to cropped sensors because the image circle is big anyway. On the other hand‚ if you were to put a cropped lens on a full frame sensor the image circle would be too small to cover the entire sensor and‚ as a result

us and our planet? Genetically modified foods are foods coming from genetically modified organisms (GMOs) which have had specific changes introduced into their DNA by genetic engineering techniques; they are usually genetically modified crops‚ or fish. They were first produced in 1983 after scientists discovered that DNA can be transferred between organisms in 1946. They were well received by the public back then but now‚ there is a big question surrounding the ethic of genetically

vegetables. To satisfy hunger‚ cultivation of crops was discovered as a better way to secure food of a family. However‚ crop improvement has resulted to cultivation of crops that perform well even under hot climate of tropical areas which are typical for most cities in the Philippines. The challenge to find alternatives and practical ways of growing crops is pursued because of the rapid urbanization rate of the country that leads to minimal space for growing crops. It is also noticeable that the vegetables

70% of the poorest people in the world. Why does the world have so much inequality? The foundation of inequality is geography. Geography is what controls the climate and what they can grow depends on the climate the crops they grow can help them domesticate animals. Together good crops and good domesticated animals will add a food surplus which makes the civilization develop faster. As Maslow’s hierarchy of needs says that when a person has food and water and other basic needs a person can have better
