Agricultural Land Use

By Siana

The Problem

The main cause of agricultural land depletion is overpopulation.

The Chain ReactionMore people… More food needed…

More land getting cut down…

More places getting affected by Co2…

Effects

Animal habitat loss because of depletion of land.

Future EffectsCrazy CO2 emissions, hot world, hungry people, dead animals, etc.

Places Already Affected

Brazil, Argentina, and lots of places in Africa.

THE SOLUTION

Vertical Farming

Hydroponics System

Can grow on your rooftops and on top of buildings.

Who needs to be involved?

Each and everyone.

Materials Needed?

All of these materials are needed to make a hydroponics system.Public, too.

Successful Solution?

Less hungry people

Less habitats destroyed

More animals alive

Less CO2 emissions

More vertical farms

More rooftop farms

Best Solution?Veggies close to you (less carbon emissions), able to grow healthy,organic vegetables, good for the earth (if you use solar power), gives poor people jobs so that they can feed themselves.

Time NeededDepends, if people approve these ideas fast, it will take less time. We also need building time.

Money NeededFor single hydroponics system: about 2,000 bahtFor vertical farming building: millions of bahtFor family garden (no hydroponics): 500 baht (maximum)

Sustainable?

Yes!Everythingmentioned

What can YOU do?Buy hydroponics system (or make it), start a personal garden, spread the news, etc.

-Plant a garden-Say yes to hydroponics-Spread the news of what is happening to the world and what will happen if we don’t stop this from happening

It’s up to us…
