infrastructure, public education, population growth rate, poor weed control, and poor pest control technology. If these small issues are being improved, the industry will be much better than how it is. Climate change is one of these major problems that affect the growth of the agricultural industry. Climate change has an effect on the agricultural sector in Jamaica,

Population is the total number of individuals living in a country, city, or any district or area. On the other hand, population growth is the elevation in the number of individuals in a population. The impact from population growth is on the nation’s economy as well as their environment. Due to the in-proportionate number of births and number of deaths every year, this led to a rapid growth in human population. The issue was more distinct between 1900 and 2000, when the increase was three times as
1) What is the real meaning of development? The real meaning of development is the process of improving the quality of all human lives and capabilities by raising people’s levels of living, self-esteem, and freedom. Development is a multidimensional process that involving changes in the social structures, the popular attitudes and national institutions, and the acceleration of economic growth. Besides that, economic development also means that have a stable population and an increased in the national
2.2 Causes of land use changes Land use change is usually a result of many combined factors arising from different phases of organisation. The combined causes of land use change differ with time, space and environment(Lambin et al., 2003). There are direct causes of land use change which includes population growth, economic growth and initiation of policy, laws ad legislations (Morara et al., 2014). 2.2.1Population growth Population growth has been the fundamental driver of land use change all
the main cause of water pollution is man-made. Biological water pollution is when water borne diseases multiply in a body of water. This can be diseases like cholera, typhoid and bilharzia. This occurs when communities have poor sanitation around the body of water. These diseases cause pain and in serious cases
Australia's Current and Future Population Nineteenth century scholar Thomas Malthus famously argued that population growth, if not controlled, would outgrow resources, resulting in many social catastrophes. Malthus warned that it was mathematically inevitable, but is this the case for Australia? Population defines the number of people a country houses. This number is determined by the birth rate and death rate of a country as well as and country’s migration rate and fertility rate. Australia is
recent years, the population has been increasing exponentially which brings about the question of overpopulation and resource scarcity, especially in lesser developed countries. One of the major causes of this problem is poverty. This, in turn, leads to issues regarding resource scarcity like overcrowding, food scarcity, and water scarcity. CAUSE Poverty has led to overpopulation for several reasons. In 2012, world population hit the 7 billion
Limits to Growth Theory According to ( Bardi 12), the limits to growth is a theory that was developed to show the effects of accelerating industrialization, the rapid population growth, the wide food production, the depression of non-renewable resources, and the deteriorating environment trends in the current world. If the developments continue unchanged, the globe will reach to its limit to growth within a hundred years. The concept was used to enable the determination of the characteristics of
from Table 1 is showing an exponential type of graph because due to the quantity in the population increasing at a fixed percentage per unit for time at 2% per year. Exponential graphs start off slowly however; it leads to the quantity to double each time. One can see that in the exponential growth graph the rate levels off although, the population continues to grow. c. One possible cause of the exponential growth trend graphed in part a. could be the increase in both technology and medicine. Today
