I am doing my PhD on Dynamics of agroecology in the urban parks which is completely following agroecological farming principles in dayalbagh Agra, India. And it is surprising how a deserted land converted to green forest and very resilient ecosystem within 10 years. And surprisingly increased biodiversity. We introduced approx 250 plant species and now it is home to more than 2000 species same goes with faunal diversity, It is very productive and constructive but the sad part is seed company like syngenta and chemical company like yara is not going to support these vibrant approach towards environment. But i am hopeful for earth.

So I got to write a paper on sustainable agricultural practices. Hint, there isn't any. Almost the entire process is unsustainable, from use of artificial fertilizers, insecticides, run off and erosion, to phosphorous sourcing, to cover crops and yes even the precious herbicide. This talk was nothing more than a trade show presentation on "we are doing fine" before the company declares bankruptcy.

I think Sri Lanka had bigger problems, and they were getting unable to afford fertilisers, so their government banned it

I think you may be surprised to see the population of the world isn't going to increase as much as you think. In fact, it may start to decrease in a little bit.

Great, sustainability always achieved through integrated nutrient management, mainly from less application of inorganic fertilizer

USA population can't be 7.8 billion. Check the facts Sir. Otherwise, the presentation was powerful.
