Accueil | Réseau Ecole et Nature Un quart de l'agriculture mondiale en zone de stress hydrique Paris - Un quart de la production agricole mondiale est issu de régions subissant un fort stress hydrique et 40% de l'alimentation disponible provient déjà de cultures irriguées, selon l'étude d'un institut américain publiée jeudi. Pour le World Ressource Initiative (WRI), - ( - «cette étude illustre les tensions entre la disponibilité en eau et la production agricole» et la nécessité de «trouver un équilibre entre ces deux ressources essentielles alors que la population mondiale ne cesse d'augmenter». L'agriculture compte déjà pour 70% des usages de l'eau sur la planète. Bien sûr, notent les auteurs, toutes les cultures ne sont exposées de la même manière. De même, toutes les cultures n'ont pas la même consommation: les racines et tubercules comme les carottes, betteraves ou pommes de terre requièrent moins d'un demi-litre d'eau pour produire une calorie.

The Slow Poisoning of India The Slow Poisoning of India is a 26-minute documentary film directed by Ramesh Menon and produced by the New Delhi-based The Energy and Resources Institute (TERI). It deals with the dangers of excessive use of pesticide in agriculture. India is one of the largest users of pesticide in Asia and also one of the largest manufactures. The toxins have entered into the food chain and into our breakfast, lunch and dinner. The film showcases startling case studies from Kerala where villagers in Kasaragod district are paying a heavy price as it has been exposed to pesticide spraying for many years. But some farmers are bouncing back into better practices, and this is a silver lining shown towards the end.

Why “get big” isn’t the answer for poor farmers around the globe In the U.S., an economic ratchet steadily drives farm sizes up and the total number of farmers down. Just a few days ago, the Department of Agriculture released an update with the completely unsurprising conclusion that “today’s farms are fewer and bigger.” Does that mean that, to modernize, farms in poorer countries will have to emulate North American agriculture and get fewer and bigger, too? Nope. The economics are actually pushing in the opposite direction — in low and middle-income countries, farms are getting smaller, not larger. Bigger is better only in the right context. To understand what’s going on here, it’s useful to have clarity of hindsight, so let’s look to history. Why do small farms win? There are some clear ways in which big really is better, Byerlee points out: Large companies have the ability to do their own research and development; they have access to money for machines and factories; and they have the wherewithal to sell their products on the global market.

The Primacy of Consciousness | Documentary Heaven | Watch Free Documentaries Online The Primacy of Consciousness The fundamental nature of reality is actually consciousness. In his documentary Peter Russell explores the reasons why consciousness may be the fundamental essence of the Universe. Many have made such claims from metaphysical perspectives, but the possibility has always been ignored by the scientific community. In this talk, he discusses the problems the materialist scientific world view has with consciousness and proposes an alternative world view which, rather than contradicting science, makes new sense of much of modern physics. This documentary basically seeks answers for these questions: What is consciousness? Report: The Primacy of Consciousness Processing your request, Please wait....
