Boserup theory is known as an optimistic theory. It states that agricultural methods and productivity of food depend on the size of the population.
Indications:
1: if population increases, larger workforce so more food produced.
2: if population increases, mechanistaion occurs, more food produced as more effective means found of producing high yields of food through use of machinery.
3: if population increases, increased use of fertilisers results, so as to produce more food for the growing poulation.

What is the boserup thesis?
The Boserup thesis, proposed by economist Ester Boserup, suggests that population growth drives agricultural innovation and intensification. Boserup argued that as population increases, the need for food will also increase, leading to advancements in farming techniques to meet the demand. This contrasts with Malthusian theory, which posits that population growth leads to scarcity and resource depletion.

What is the difference between malthus and boserup theories?
- Ester Boserups theory was that as the generations grow so will the population and as we grow into the future we will become cleverer, smarter and learn more things. This means that we shouldn't worry about running out of resources and food, because as we grow into the future we will create a new way of avoiding the problems, increase the food supply and discover and create more resources. - Thomas Malthus's theory was that as we grow into the future people that two people will have four children, those people will have eight children and so on -it will double the amount before it. And as we double into the future the population will grow out of hand that there will not be enough resources and supplies to meet the needs of these people. So the population will overtake the amount of resources.
