food produced and the food supply. The enclosure allowed the continuation of innovations and inventions to help increase food production. The land was used more efficiently. The decisions on what crops to plant were not made communally as like in the village method. The farmers would use crop rotation and had more manure to use as fertilizer. The farmers wanted to make more money after the enclosure. There was an entrepreneurial attitude. The farmers wanted to own land. These attitudes‚ however

currently a pest for over one hundred different host plants through out the country. Economically speaking‚ they do the most damage to corn crops in the Corn Belt. There are three main different types of Corn rootworm: Northern corn rootworm‚ Western corn rootworm‚ and Southern corn rootworm. They all have their own unique way to reproduce and affect the farmer’s crops. Northern corn rootworm has a unique life cycle. The female insects lay eggs in late August. Those eggs then hatch starting in May

fertile owing to the wood ashes and accumulated humus. After two or three years’ crop‚ when the fertility of the soil is seriously reduced‚ the people again change their land of cultivation. Thus the essential feature of shifting cultivation is the rotation of fields rather than crops. As a result more and more land are exposed to erosion.

BUT WHAT WOULD HAPPEN IF THAT SLOWDOWN SPEEDS UP? If the speed of rotation were reduced by about one kilometer per hour‚ traffic air would face serious consequences. Most commercial aircrafts navigate with the help of GPS‚ which rely on a series of satellites that tell an aircraft where in the world it is. But if the Earth
