Growing Population Seems To Be a Major Concern for Arable Land

The world recession has done nothing to stop the increasing populace of the world. It is very much anticipated that in the next decade the populace of the globe will amplify by another one billion people. We’re short of feed for horses, cattle, goats, sheep, cows and other domestic animals as deserts get bigger & man diminishes the soil of minerals for livestock to stay alive. In some nations, the situation is so poor that livestock are left to die.

How growing population has contributed to the scarcity of arable land:

The quick extension of the populace size since the conclusion of the World War II in the globe’s poorest countries has been a prime reason of their poverty. Over-population & continuing population increase are making significant contributions to the annihilation of planet’s life-support systems.

In the past, human being populations have seldom been subject to outbursts. Only about one-third of lands are classified as farming but some of these lands are being overtaken by acid soils and where fertilizers are lacking. Therefore, roughly 2/3 of the land area of the globe aren't suitable for any type of farming use because it’s covered by deserts, mountains, cities, snow, swamps, etc. Of the 35% that can be committed to cultivation, less than 1/3 can be cultivated & produce crops that the human being can digest.

The remaining 2/3 of the globe’s farming land is covered by shrubs, deserts, grass or other plants that only ruminant animals can absorb. Therefore, the incompetence of animals isn’t a major problem as they represent the only means these plants can be transformed to human foodstuff. As the human populace of the globe increases, it’s probable that we’ll be forced to rely more on ruminant animals to meet the increasing demand for foodstuffs. But the concern we’ve is that as nature and man take over the land, there’s less feed for the animals.
