Over the millennia, every region on Earth has developed its own successful agricultural ecosystem from flat fields of grain and mountainside rice terraces to coastal fish farms and goat herding. Today, we-re going to break down agricultural systems into three scales: subsistence, small-scale, and industrial agriculture. And we-ll take a look at how a place's history plays a huge role in the system we see today as we follow the story of agriculture in the Philippines

Genuinely surprised no mention of drip irrigation. Drip irrigation is a type of micro-irrigation system that has the potential to save water and nutrients by allowing water to drip slowly to the roots of plants, either from above the soil surface or buried below the surface. The goal is to place water directly into the root zone and minimize evaporation. It was invented in Israel

I-m a 4th generation tree fruit farmer here in E Washington State. Anybody here is more than welcome to come out and see what producing apples, pears, cherries and some apricots and peaches. If you do I can hook you up with a box ----. And we would so much appreciate the acknowledgment of our existence.

I'd love to learn all about American wheat production vs. Wheat production everywhere else. Also, I'm now curious about all things rice production. Since I work at Starbucks it'd also be interesting to learn more about coffee production and the future of its production

Kind of overlooks the benefits of agrobusiness. Mainly it is much more efficient and therefore requires less land use (no more clearing forests) and less human labor freeing citizens up to pursue something other than subsistence farming

Great video and really insightful. Food scarcity is a real global problem considering that we-re the masters of agriculture. We need better ways to protect workers and less politics around food

Animal agriculture is the leading cause of habitat destruction and climate change. Stop supporting the destruction of our planet and the cruelty/exploitation of non-human animals.

I often think about the exploitation of labour workers involved when I'm buying produce. I try to buy local even if it's more expensive. Thanks for doing a video like this.

lighten the load on the global trade system by giving people the free time to grow their own. No more evictions from primary residences!
