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
• saves time
and money
• increases crop
yields by helping
farmers maintain
ideal conditions
• farmer will know
exact amount of
fertilizer needed
Hydroponics
• allows people
to grow crops
in areas with
poor soil
• can grow
crops in
containers
filled with sand
or gravel with a
nutrient
solution
Genetic
Engineering
• crops can
grow in a
wider range
of climates
• engineering
plants to be
more resistant
to damage from
insects
