When you think about farming, there are mainly two ways to do it: the traditional way that's been around for a long time, and the sustainable way, which focuses on caring for the earth. Traditional farming practices such as tilling, the regular application of chemical fertilizers and pesticides, wasteful watering and high energy use can harm the environment, leading to problems like pollution and harm to waterways and aquatic life, greenhouse gas emissions, resource depletion, the loss of different species of plants and animals, and damaged soil.

Agriculture has played a foundational role in the progression of human societies, acting as a pillar for economic development and sustenance. With the advent of the modern era, however, our reliance on industrialized agricultural practices has resulted in dire environmental consequences.
