In this sentence "3x" means "three times".

So the sentence would be:

"Produce three times more food on the same land."

And this sentence means the following:

Farmer Adams uses Growex fertilizer and his land produces 300 bushels of grain per acre, while on the next farm over Farmer Brown uses no fertilizer and his land produces only 100 bushels of grain per acre. So by using Growex fertilizer Farmer Adams is able to produce three times (3x) more grain (food) on the same type of land than is Farmer Brown, who uses no fertilizer.

Why do organic products tend to be more expensive?

Organic products cost more because of 1. With natural things we can not produce more as per requirement( Demand and supply). 2. Research were taken to produce more with limited land available to developed countries. As a result we started produce more but at the same time our natural food products ( Vegitables) lost their original test and quality. Our land can not produce the good old days agricultural products. 3. To bring the situation back again researcher trying to produce organic products within natural environment. 4. Only limited quantity can be produce and sellers take the advantage of fixing high price. 5. New generation is crazy about organic product and thus fetches high profit to the sellers or producers in the name of organic product. 6. Actually we do not know whether the same land is capable of producing the good old days natural product!


Why the production possibilities frontier bowed outward.?

The bowed out shape of the production possibility curve is because certain factors of production are better suited to producing one good than they are to producing another good. For example, if the two goods are food and clothes, then in order to produce more and more clothes, eventually the most productive farmland must be allocated to clothes production. As a result, the opportunity cost of producing ever-larger quantities of clothes rises as more clothes are produced. So at first when reallocating the resources to produce more clothes, the unfertailed land will be sacrificed, this land may just produce 40 units of food, so the opportunity cost for producing cloths will be low, but then, as the state will reallocate more resources to produce clothes, the most fertailed land will be sacrificed, which may produce 100 units of food, this will raise the opportunity cost for each unit of cloth being produced.

Why do people promote vegetarianism as a possible answer to produce enough food?

When animals are produced for food they have to be fed something. Even cows don't only eat grass. The plants they eat could often be eaten by people, saving the field space used by the animals, and also saving the planet from the methane emitted by the animals as they digest their food. If we eat the plants directly, we also produce methane (obviously!), but there's a lower total than if cows etc produce it and we then eat them. Also if we only eat vegetables there is a lot more land area freed up to produce them. When animals are produced for food they have to be fed something. Even cows don't only eat grass.
