Geografia: A Modernização da Agricultura | Ensino Fundamental |

And everyone is fine with you in this geography class, let's talk about the modernization of agriculture and also about the Green revolution So let's go to class then when we talk about modernization of Agriculture or modern agriculture We are referring to the use of technologies in agricultural production and a process that has more intensely to occur from the second half of the 20th century modern agriculture it is different from traditional mode of production wanted a little more independent of the nature of human labor and draft animals to carry out the activities involved in the production the use of modern technologies in agriculture involves the use of machinery, equipment and modern facilities, tools typical of properties aimed at agribusiness if currently the use of technology is common in agriculture. In the not too distant past, reality was different and the traditional mode of production is great leap for the modernization of agriculture takes place u after the 1960s during a period of great scientific advances that became known as the Green Revolution that Green Revolution brought about several changes in agricultural production between all these changes is worth mentioning some such as the mechanization of work and replacement of human labor by machines the use of irrigation systems the continued use of industrially produced chemical fertilizers since the beginning of the 20th century and improved after the Second World War application of chemical poisons pesticides to control agricultural pests planting high-yield seeds developed with genetic improvement techniques and designed to increase productivity so from the 1970s the Green revolution methods have been widely adopted by boosting agribusiness and causing changes in the rural areas of the countries including Brazil for example the predominant mode of production became agribusiness Mostly at the In medium and large urban centers the modernization of Agriculture represented a great increase in global agricultural productivity, however it was harmful to many small producers who, with their traditional mode of production, were unable to compete with the new technologies of agribusiness. they use all this modernization, they end up producing much more on the same space of land as the traditional farmer, who has this Family Farming, okay so think if he produces much more often, even much cheaper, he ends up being much more competitive, or in other words he ends up getting sell a lot more sell a lot more and then you, the traditional farmer, end up losing a little competitiveness.

It ends up being a little more difficult for him to do business because he has to sell his product a little more expensively, he manages to deliver less than this agribusiness producer is getting a little more difficult this side of Commerce That's cool, and the mechanization of work in the field has contributed to many families moving to cities, increasing the rate of urbanization. Global however, family properties have not ceased to exist and are still responsible for supplying the very families who work there on this land and for a large part of the agricultural production in several countries with the advance of genetic research in the last decades, the agricultural examination ended even more and started the commercialization of transgenic foods. transgenic species are genetically modified and have genetic material from other species in order to improve production agricultural or crop resistance to pests Currently, transgenic crops are common in several countries including Brazil transgenic crops can lead to a global increase in food production , however, as this is a recent advance in genetic science, research on their relaxing effects consumer health pain still do not present significant conclusions and it cannot be said, therefore, whether transgenics are good or bad for health.
