Until about four decades ago, crop yields in agricultural systems depended on{{U}} (1) {{/U}}resources, recycling organic matter, built-in biological control mechanisms and rainfall patterns.Agricultural yields were{{U}} (2) {{/U}}but stable. Production was{{U}} (3) {{/U}}by growing more than one crop or variety in space and time in a field as insurance against pest{{U}} (4) {{/U}}or severe weather. Inputs of nitrogen were{{U}} (5) {{/U}}by rotating major field crops with legumes. In turn, rotations suppressed insects, weeds and diseases by effectively{{U}} (6) {{/U}}the life cycles of these pests.A、typical corn belt farmer grew corn{{U}} (7) {{/U}}with several crops including soybeans, and small grain production was intrinsic to maintain livestock. Most of the labor was done by the family with occasional hired help and no{{U}} (8) {{/U}}equipment or services were purchased from off4arm sources. In these type of farming systems the link between agriculture and ecology was quite{{U}} (9) {{/U}}and signs of environment degradation were seldom evident.
But as agriculture modernization{{U}} (10) {{/U}}the ecology-farming linkage was often broken as ecological principles were{{U}} (11) {{/U}}. In fact, several agricultural scientists have arrived at a{{U}} (12) {{/U}}consensus that modem agriculture confronts an environment crisis.A、growing number of people have become concerned about the long-term{{U}} (13) {{/U}}of existing food production systems.Evidence has shown that{{U}} (14) {{/U}}the present capital-and-technology-intensive fanning systems have been extremely productive and competitive, they also bring a{{U}} (15) {{/U}}of economic, environmental and social problems.
Evidence also shows that the very nature of the agricultural structure and prevailing polices have led to this environmental{{U}} (16) {{/U}}by favoring large farm size, specialized production, crop monocultures and mechanization. Today as more and more farmers are integrated{{U}} (17) {{/U}}international economies, imperatives to{{U}} (18) {{/U}}disappear and monocultures are rewarded by economies of scale. In turn, lack of rotations and diversification{{U}} (19) {{/U}}key self-regulating mechanisms, turning monocultures into highly{{U}} (20) {{/U}}agro-ecosystems dependent on high chemical inputs.
