The main limitation

Unconventional managementNo planning + Corruptions = falling

The amount of cultivable land on earth is finite, making inputs necessary to feed the increasing population.

Food production will need to double in order to meet minimum requirements.

13

In the future, growth in food production will depend largely on finding ways to increase the productivity of existing agricultural land.

14

Future food security depends on high-yielding varieties of staple foods

Replacing the traditional diversity of crops with monocultures.

(65 -63تفكهون )الواقعة Then tell Me about the seed that you

sow in the ground. Is it you make it grow or are we the grower?

ألم تروا أن الله سخر لكم ما في السمواتوما في األرض وأسبغ عليكم نعمة طهرة

(20وباطنة )لقمان: See you not that Allah has subjected for

you whatsoever is in the skies and whatsoever is in the earth.

ولو بسط الله الرزق لعبده لبغوا في األرضولكن ينزل بقدر ما يشاء إنه بعباده خبير

(.27بصير )الشورى: And if Allah were to enlarge (increase)

the provision for his slaves, they would surely rebel in the earth, but He sends down by measure as He wills, Verily He is, in respect of His salves….

إنا بلوناهم كما بلونا أصحاب الجنة إذ أقسمواليصرمنها مصبحين، و ال يستثنون فطاف

عليها طائف من ربك وهم نائمون ، فاصبحت كالصريم

Verily, We have tried them as we tried the people of the garden, when they swore to pluck the fruits of the garden in the morning. Without saying: If Allah wills. Fire from your Lord burnt at night while

they were asleep. The garden became black ….

فقلت استغفروا ربكم إنه كان غفارا، يرسلالسماء عليكم مدرار، ويمددكم بأموال وبنين

ويجعل لكم جنات ويجعل لكم أنهارا )نوح: 10-12 )

I said to them: Ask forgiveness from your Lord, verily He is Oft-Forgiving. He will send rain to you in abundance. And give you increase in wealth and children and bestow on you gardens and

bestow on you rivers.

22

وألو استقاموا على الطريقة ألسقيناهم ماء(17-16غدقا ) الجن:

If they had believed in Allah and went on the right path way, We surely have bestowed on them water (rain) in abundance.
