Learning goals
You know why the
food
footprint
increases, and why this leads to
large-scale farming
and
intensification
You can demonstrate with maps that tropical rainforest is disappearing for agricultural land

Why is the Netherlands a huge contributor to global deforestation?
Slide 13 - Mind map
The Netherlands is one of the largest European importers of soybeans
Farmers use soybeans to feed their cattle
Soybeans plantations are usually created in rainforest areas

In The Netherlands we have:
More than 12 million pigs
More than 3,8 million cows
More than 100 000 000 million chickens
Slide 16 - Slide
How does the production of meat lead to deforestation of the tropical rainforest?
Production of 1 kilo of meat: 50 tot 250 m² is needed
More space is needed for the animals and for fields of animal feed
Deforestation tropisch regenwoud

Tropical rainforest and agriculture: Amazon

Food footprint increases
Food footprint
= the space needed to produce the food for a single person
World population increases
World population is getting richer

C
The bigger the population, the bigger the meat consumption
D
The smaller the population, the bigger the meat consumption
Slide 22 - Quiz
What is changing in the food
industry?
Quite a lot: organic framing, large-scale framing and intensification.
Organic farming
Organic farming uses fewer pesticides and gives animals more space
Large-scale farming
Companies make a lot of the same food. This is the most efficient.
Intensification
Companies that use knowledge and money for higher yields (opbrengsten). They use a lot of modern technology.
Slide 23 - Slide
Large-scale farming
Agricultural businesses that are
expanding and maximizing
their production
Slide 24 - Slide
Large-scale farming
Larger farms, fewer types of crops (or 1 species = monoculture)
Advantage: knowledge of 1 product and only 1 type of machine is needed
Disadvantage: decrease of
biodiversity
Large-scale farming
This is easy for the farmers.
They can harvest a lot at one time.
Without large-scale farming
Here grow many types of plants. This is good for the biodiversity, but the work for the farmer is more difficult and expensive.
Slide 25 - Slide
Intensification
An increased yield of crops per hectare or per animal by means of knowledge or capital
Slide 26 - Slide
Intensification
Farmers try to get as much as possible out of a piece of land or an animal.
Use of science and expensive machines.
Intensification
This farmer uses a drone
to determine exactly how much manure (mest) is needed
Intensification
All these cows are milked at once by one machine.
This saves the farmer a lot of work.
