Text Quotes
Food production has affected the environment more than any other activity humans have engaged in. Humanity devotes more land to food production than anything else - roughly a third of the surface area of the earth, much of which was once forest but has been converted by humans into farms or grazing lands.  (Food Production Quotes) An almost forgotten means of economic self-reliance is the home production of food. We are too accustomed to going to stores and purchasing what we need  (Food Production Quotes) Agriculture is not crop production as popular belief holds - it’s the production of food and fiber from the world’s land and waters. Without agriculture it is not possible to have a city, stock market, banks, university, church or army. Agriculture is the foundation of civilization and any stable economy  (Food Production Quotes) With nine degrees of warming, computer models project that Australia will look like a disaster movie. Habitats for most vertebrates will vanish. Water supply to the Murray-Darling Basin will fall by half, severely curtailing food production  (Food Production Quotes) Anybody interested in solving, rather than profiting from, the problems of food production and distribution will see that in the long run the safest food supply is a local food supply, not a supply that is dependent on a global economy. Nations and regions within nations must be left free and should be encouraged to develop the local food economies that best suit local needs and local conditions  (Food Production Quotes) Our early 21st century civilization is in trouble. We need not go beyond the world food economy to see this. Over the last few decades we have created a food production bubble-one based on environmental trends that cannot be sustained, including overpumping aquifers, overplowing land, and overloading the atmosphere with carbon dioxide  (Food Production Quotes) I don’t want food that comes from animals that are caged up and fed antibiotics. I am really suspicious of that kind of production of meat and poultry.  (Food Production Quotes) I don’t have many expenses as a college student (mostly food) so I’m able to put advertising revenue right back into the production of new videos.  (Food Production Quotes) One cannot fix one’s eyes on the commonest natural production without finding food for a rambling fancy.  (Food Production Quotes) I had the realization that hunger is not caused by scarcity of food, it is caused by the production system and an absence of democracy throughout the world.  (Food Production Quotes) Global food insecurity is increasing...the slim excess of growth in food production over population is narrowing.  (Food Production Quotes) Within your culture as a whole, there is in fact no significant thrust toward global population control. The point to see is that there never will be such a thrust so long as you’re enacting a story that says the gods made the world for man. For as long as you enact that story, Mother Culture will demand increased food production today- and promise population control tomorrow  (Food Production Quotes) We also call for a healthy food system that prioritizes sustainable healthy local food production  (Food Production Quotes) Supporting local food production is so much healthier for people. It’s better for the local economy, and it’s a lot of fun.  (Food Production Quotes) If we do nothing, the ensuing climate catastrophe will wreck our economy - including wreaking havoc on our food production systems. All credible scientists agree on this point.  (Food Production Quotes) The Second Green Revolution, as the world’s population grows to over 9 billion by 2050, is the new revolution we have to have to lift food production by another 75 percent.  (Food Production Quotes) We announced that there’d be no more starvation in India. And you responded, ‘Impossible. You’ll never succeed!’ Instead we succeeded; today in India no one dies of hunger any more; food production far exceeds consumption.  (Food Production Quotes) I am but one member of a vast team made up of many organizations, officials, thousands of scientists, and millions of farmers - mostly small and humble - who for many years have been fighting a quiet, oftentimes losing war on the food production front.  (Food Production Quotes) It is clearly the case that programs in Europe and the United States that have increased biofuel production have contributed to the added demand for food.  (Food Production Quotes) There’s a big difference between industrializing production of tractors and industrializing production of food. We like technology, but we really like technology that allows us to do better what nature does itself.  (Food Production Quotes) Food production is just one part of the repeated emphasis that you store a provision of food which will last for at least a year wherever it is legally permissible to do so.  (Food Production Quotes) The production of fuel from basic food commodities is, in fact, unjustifiable  (Food Production Quotes) Permaculture offers a radical approach to food production and urban renewal, water, energy and pollution. It integrates ecology, landscape, organic gardening, architecture and agro-forestry in creating a rich and sustainable way of living. It uses appropriate technology giving high yields for low energy inputs, achieving a resource of great diversity and stability. The design principles are equally applicable to both urban and rural dwellers  (Food Production Quotes) We are living as if we had three planets’ worth of resources to live with rather than just one. We need to cut by about two-thirds our ecological footprint. For that we need one planet farming as well as one planet living - one planet farming which minimises the impact on the environment of food production and consumption, and which maximises its contribution to renewal of the natural environment  (Food Production Quotes) The international community must offer short-term emergency measures to meet critical needs. But it must also make longer-term investments to promote food production and agricultural development, enhance food security and maintain and accelerate momentum towards the MDGs  (Food Production Quotes) Rising oil prices have focused the world’s attention on the depletion of oil reserves. But the depletion of underground water resources from overpumping is a far more serious issue. Excessive pumping for irrigation to satisfy food needs today almost guarantees a decline in food production tomorrow  (Food Production Quotes) Farms and food production should be, I submit, at least as important as who pierced their navel in Hollywood this week. Please tell me I’m not the only one who believes this. Please. As a culture, we think we’re well educated, but I’m not sure that what we’ve learned necessarily helps us survive  (Food Production Quotes) Corn is the leading food and feed crop of the United States in geographic range of production, acreage, and quantity of product. The vital importance of a large acreage of this crop, properly cared for, therefore, is obvious  (Food Production Quotes) To be interested in food but not in food production is clearly absurd  (Food Production Quotes) Justice requires that everyone should have enough to eat. But it also requires that everyone should contribute to the production of food  (Food Production Quotes)
