Name three technologies that farmers can use to increase

crop yields.

Precision farming hydroponics Genetic

engineering

Which technology do you think holds the most promise for the future?

Precision Farming

Hydroponics Genetic Engineering

• saves time and money

• increases crop yields by helping farmers maintain ideal conditions

• farmer will know exact amount of fertilizer needed

• allows people to grow crops in areas with poor soil

• can grow crops in containers filled with sand or gravel with a nutrient solution

• crops can grow in a wider range of climates

• engineering plants to be more resistant to damage from insects
