On the demand side, those trends include the ongoing addition of more than 70 million people a year, a growing number of people wanting to move up the food chain to consume -72- highly grain-intensive meat products, and the massive diversion ( ' , 轉向) of U.S. grain to the production of bio-fuel.

Its production depends too much on technologyThey enjoyed cooking as well as eating.

Increasing water shortages prove to be the biggest obstacle to boosting the world's grain production.

They reduce production drastically to boost oil prices.

Vast areas of the United States are off-limits to oil exploration and production in the name of environmental protection.

To what extent are Americans really willing to endure the environmental impacts of domestic energy production in order to cut back imports

It allows for economic efficiency, and when we buy things from places that have lower production costs than we do, we benefit.

Its own oil production falls short of demand

Textbook versions are constantly updated, motivating publishers by minimizing production costs (the big ones like McGraw-Hill are already on board).

Industrial production fell by

their production capacity has shrunk to less than half of the previous year

Anna Gomez leads in an exciting production of the great Spanish love story, Carmen.

In a bid to take production back to Detroit, michigan lawmakers have introduced legislation that could make their state the best place in the country, if not the world, to develop self-driving vehicles and put them on the road.

On the demand side, those trends include the ongoing addition of more than 70 million people a year, a growing number of people wanting to move up the food chain to consume highly grain-intensive meat products, and the massive diversion of U.S. grain to t

The reasoning behind this saying is that low oil prices discourage investment in new production capacity, eventually shifting the oil supply curve backward and bringing prices back up as existing oil fields—which can be tapped at relatively low marginal cost—are depleted.

The British traveler Charles Thompson spoke for many Grand Tourists when in 1744 he described himself as being impatiently desirous of viewing a country so famous in history, a country which once gave laws to the world, and which is at present the greatest school of music and painting, contains the noblest productions of sculpture and architecture, and is filled with cabinets of rarities, and collections of all kinds of historical relics.

Whether it is a transition from imported to domestic oil or from coal-powered electricity production to natural-gas power plants, politicians love to talk big.

The major components of our energy systems, such as fuel production, refining, electrical generation and distribution, are costly installation that have lengthy life spans.

Whether patent for seeds is harmful to agricultural production.

Furthermore, this figure does not reflect the fact that large amounts of land, energy, fertilisers and water have also been lost in the production of foodstuffs which simply end up as waste

The challenge is that an increase in animal-based production will require more land and resources, as livestock (牲畜)farming demands extensive land use.

Energy Usage: Energy is an essential resource across the entire food production cycle, with estimates showing an average of 7-10 calories of input being required in the production of one calorie of food.

This varies dramatically depending on crop, from three calories for plant crops to 35 calories in the production of beef

Wheat production takes 50% of its energy input for these two items alone.

With production anticipated to increase by 25% between now and 2030, sustainable energy sourcing will become an increasingly major issue

This will help improve produce handling in the harvest, and immediate post-harvest stages of food production.

The production and application of fertilisers and pesticides account for the largest part of energy use in the modern industrialised agricultural process

When the Ford Motor Company, for example, recently announced that it was bringing some production home, the White House cheered.

When you see things like Ford moving new production from Mexico to Detroit, instead of the other way around, you know things are changing," says Gene Sperling, director of the National Economic Council

How did the White House respond to Ford's announcement to bring some production

Moving production to other countries.

I only heard about the delay yesterday because we kept the production line clear to handle these special sheets.

Another way in which meat production affects the environment is through the use of water and land

One acre of farmland use to for crop production can produce 1,500 pounds of tomatoes.

A decrease in production costs

"The sun provides the lowest cost of production and the cheapest meat," he says.

As the sea creeps into these fresh—water marshes, however, rising salinity (鹽分) is hampering rice production.

Farmers are reporting steep losses and a new $20 million tomato-paste factory has halted production due to the shortages.

For both beef and dairy production, it requires, at least in the beginning, more pastureland.

Grass-fed beef production tends to be more labor-intensive as well.

Only a small fraction of the population was literate, but the production of books grew at an extraordinary speed.

Publishers were interested only in books that would sell fairly quickly in sufficient numbers to cover the costs of production and make a profit.

Reducing waste by incorporating med materials into production can cut costs and decrease the price of procurement: less to be procured from the outside and more to be re-utilized from the inside.

The reasoning behind this saying is that low oil prices discourage investment in new production capacity, eventually shifting the oil supply curve backward and bringing prices back up as existing oil fields—which can be tapped at relatively low marginal c

Thus, while printing enormously increased access to books by making cheap, high-volume production possible, it also reduced choice.
