Physical Conditions
This physical condition can also be referred to as 'the slope of the land'.
Topography
Farming a relatively small amount of land with the use of large amounts of labour and capital.
Intensive Farming
This area of food sustainability ensures that foods are available to promote the health and development of communities.
Social Equity & Human Health
GMOs are created by taking one or more of these from an organism and adding them to another.
Genes (Desired Traits)
This process of human development has covered a lot of quality farmland around the world.
Urbanization
This complex substance contains minerals, living organic materials such as earthworms and bacteria, as well as decaying materials such as rotting plants.
Soil
People who farm to meet the immediate food needs of their family.
Subsistence Farmers
Food production that does not compromise land, air, or water today or for future generations.
Environmental Health
Once farmers begin growing GMO crops, they are at risk of being controlled by...
Big Businesses (Large Companies that develop and set the prices of seed each year)
Increased communication and trade with other parts of the world.
Globalization
Weeds, bees, and locusts can all be categorized under this physical condition.
Biology
With this method of farming, stubble left from the previous year's crop forms a cover that prevents soil erosion.
No-Till Cropping
In this area of sustainability, food producers are able to earn a decent wage so they can continue to grow food.
Economic Vitality
Aside from allergy risks, it is argued that another health risk of GMOs is...
Unknown long-term effects
When farmers pool money together and buy shares in an operation to minimize individual risks.
Farming Co-operative
This can be considered the more scientific term for 'heat' from the sun.
Solar Energy
Farming with the use of modern machinery and synthetic chemicals.
Conventional Farming
Seeing this label on a product means that the producers were paired fairly for their work.
Fairtrade
Grocery stores and restaurants on this continent are required to label GMO products.
Europe
This can be cited as the main factor behind the global food crisis, as well as the push to grow more food in Canada
Rising Fuel Prices
This is usually measured in terms of precipitation levels and evapotranspiration.
Moisture
Ploughing across hilly fields rather than up and down the slope of a hill.
Contour Ploughing
This type of farming is the best option for promoting the health of the environment.
Organic Farming
Another word for Genetically Modified Organisms (not the abbreviation)
Transgenic Organisms
Most food shortages or 'challenging conditions' are occurring in these types of countries.
Developing Countries
