Concern about soil loss relates to the idea that our ability to produce food will diminish; however‚ human ingenuity has always seemed to find ways to increase agricultural yield. We should definitely be concerned with soil erosion. According to our text‚ the Earth’s topsoil is being degraded by forestry‚ agriculture and pollution. Since soil is irreplaceable and promotes the nutrient cycle as well as treating waste‚ a system must be put into place to ensure this resource does not disappear.

"As demand for food increases‚ the amount of land we have available to grow food on is reducing‚" he adds. "An area twice the size of Scotland’s entire agricultural area has been swallowed up by Chinese towns and cities in the last 10 years.’’ ’’ Food demand will likely to increase as a result of increased biofuel production from food crops. Biofuel production is set to increase by nearly 90% over the next

The Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) started it life in the 1960s and this it is now celebrating 50th anniversary. The main idea of the policy stayed throughout the years and was aiming at guaranteeing EU (European Union) farmers with income and their product prices to stay stable. To fulfil these aims‚ it is not surprising that the CAP budget has represented a large proportion of the overall EU budget and expenditure‚ as it takes the place of national policy and expenditure on agriculture. It is

Runoff is caused by rainwater that does not percolate into the soil‚ and it carries chemicals and waste that are then drained into the Bay through the storm drains (“Stormwater Runoff”). Plant nutrients like fertilizers are one of the chemicals that are carried by runoff. The rainwater dumps out nitrogen and phosphorus from the fertilizers into the water. These contaminants directly harm

erosion More recently still‚ the use of powerful agricultural implements has‚ in some parts of the world‚ led to damaging amounts of soil moving downslope merely under the action of gravity: this is so-called tillage erosion. Erosion processes The processes of soil erosion involve detachment of material by two processes‚ raindrop impact and flow traction; and transported either by saltation through the air or by overland water flow. Runoff is the most important direct driver of severe soil

Every being relies and require water in order to survive. The earth is composed of more than 70% water; most of it is not usable water. The increase of population has increased the demand for crops and livestock from the agricultural industry‚ which resulted in the increase of contamination within the waterways. In this lab‚ we will explore water quality and contamination. The USGS has conducted water quality test and provided water managers and policymakers with technically
