How does an organic dairy farm differ from a conventional farm?
Rejection of genetically modified and lab-manufactured inputs and use of local and on-site resources are ways in which organic dairy farms differ from conventional farms. Conventional farms permit genetic alteration and synthetic treatments in all aspects of raising livestock for revenue from milk and milk-related products whereas organic farms do not admit anything into their procedures which involve genetic changes, non-local provenance, or synthetic make-up.
What is the major cause of water contamination in the US?
The major cause would be runoff from farms with pesticides and insecticides, secondly would be contamination, chemical spills, and thirdly would be contamination by people such as matter from animals and humans.
How has technology allowed Israel to increase its food production?
The Zionists during and prior to the creation of the State of Israel, brought much more advanced agronomic techniques to the Middle East than that region had ever seen before. There were modern systems of water-piping and irrigation, the use of hardier crops and genetic variants, the use of secondary crops (such as peanuts) to replenish the soil with nutrients, the increase of the size of farms and the use of mechanized forms of reaping, the use of insecticides, the use of stabilizing plants (such as eucalyptus trees) to firm up swampy soil enough for cultivation, the use of genetic engineering to pioneer saltwater crops (such as the saltwater tomato), and the increased prevalence of desalination plants and humidity-liquifiers to increase liquid water content.
