section27: The agricultural crisis as a crisis of culture.

   The agricultural crisis as a crisis of culture.

Since world war2, many farms started to meet a less diversity state, less owners and larger holding. Not to mention technology and big economics resulted in abandoned land in the country. Agriculture has driven people to many categories. those who got big and bigger, and made those who could not, kicked out of the farm communities. These farmlands where an increase of overhead, dept, and dependence on machine require an absolute revolution in the farmer's mind. What becomes more important to him is where the money is going and not where it comes from. Another point, is that food cannot be produced by technology alone. Food is a cultural product. A culture is not a collection of remains but a practical necessity, its infection evolve a disaster. A sane culture is a communal order of memory, insight, value, honour and aspiration. Necessary disciplines are also to be taken into account. Loyalty and the use of experience. Agriculture cannot live longer at the expense of the natural systems. Likewise, culture cannot survive at the expense of its agriculture or its natural sources. The latter would be a suicidal act, which drives us to live at the expense of other life.
