关于此电子书
The Technological Crop Revolution examines the significant technological advancements in crop harvesting from 1970 to 2000, revealing how these innovations reshaped agricultural practices globally. The book explores the intricate interplay between engineering breakthroughs, economic forces, and their combined impact on agricultural productivity. For example, the adoption of combine harvesters and precision agriculture drastically altered the scale and profitability of crop harvesting. This transformation, while boosting yields, also led to labor displacement and increased capital investment requirements, highlighting the complex relationship between technology and economics in agriculture.
The book begins by establishing a historical context, then methodically analyzes core technologies and the economic factors driving their adoption, such as government subsidies and market demands. It then traces the consequences of these changes on rural employment, the environment, and global food supply chains. A key aspect of the book is its multidisciplinary approach, bridging technology, economics, and agricultural science to offer a holistic view of the mechanization of crop harvesting.
Through economic data, engineering specifications, and case studies, the book provides valuable insights for policymakers, agricultural businesses, and those interested in the future of food production.
