What is Agro-Industrialization?

Agriculture has changed by: Change from small scale family owned farms serving a local population To Large scale, global companies, high input, high output, intensive methods serving the global community. This is agro industrialization This has happened because of: Advances in farming technology such as GM foods Fertilizers and pesticide use Improved transport and communication to export products

(ie; country/company/scenario/news story) Agro-industrialisation causes negative impacts on the environment. How? It has increased food production but is a major consumer of energy, a major contributor of greenhouses gases, air pollution, water pollution, spread of disease, land erosion and loss of biodiversity. Find one example of agro-industrialization for each environmental concern – share w/ peers (ie; country/company/scenario/news story)
