Food Production: Farming 🧑🌾 GCSE Biology Learning & Revision
Manage episode 489544793 series 3139280
In this episode, we discuss food farming techniques.
Achieving global food security requires more efficient food production methods.
The amount of energy transferred between trophic levels in food chains has implications for food production efficiency because only a fraction of energy is passed on.
Shortening food chains can, therefore, increase efficiency. Minimising energy loss from livestock through processes such as movement helps as well.
Feeding livestock high-protein foods can also increase growth rates and productivity.
