Answer 1

What are disadvantages of agriculture?

✔Uses up too much water

✔Uses up too much land

✔Many crops and especially meat production produces few calories per acre.

★Water is much more necessary than food…starvation is not that dangerous whereas dehydration is very dangerous. It takes like at least 3 weeks of starvation for anything bad to happen whereas dehydration can kill in days or even hours depending on the condition so a water crisis would be more serious than a food crisis.

★Land is needed for houses and many other things…especially important in countries with high population densities.

★Meat production especially doesn’t work well, doesn’t produce many calories per acre, uses up lots of land and water.
