Would organic farming be a way to solve food crisis?
有機農業可解決糧食危機嗎？
Organic farming could help to solve the problem of food crisis. The normal farming practices nowadays is a single cultivation method that peruses maximum yield, which is not able to fulfill the need of the world population. In the contrary, organic farming could increase the yield of diversified crops and protect the ecosystem. It can help increasing job opportunities, improving the living standard and infrastructure in the rural area, and increasing the competitiveness of the local farmers. This would be the way of environmental protection and sustainable development of our society in the future.
有機農業不只遠離農藥化肥，更是解決糧食危機的出路。因為常規農業單一追求最大產量的種植方法，已經不足以應付全球人口的需求。而有機農業除能提高多元的農作物產量和保護生態環境，還能帶來更好的社會影響，如增加農村的就業機會、改善農民生計、農村社區建設，以及加強農民的競爭力等，是保護自然環境以至促進社會整體發展的未來路向。
