- W2004887964 abstract "Global agriculture is entering a challenging and difficult period with an increasing human population and an accelerating need for food, fiber, feed, and raw materials for other industries. This challenge will need to be met on fewer hectares of available land and a reduced supply of the fossil fuel inputs that have catalyzed the increased productivity of the past five decades. Agriculture in some forms has negative and lasting effects on the environment. The research and education community is seeking a more resource-efficient, sustainable system of food production that has less negative impact on the environment. This system is characterized by increased resource use efficiency, greater reliance on internal or renewable resources, increased short- and long-term profitability, enhancement of soil productivity, minimal negative environmental impact, and social viability for families and communities. Agricultural research over the last half century has contributed many components to sustainable productivity, but its focus in the future will be more on systems, interactions among components, and the impact of the activity on the broader environment and community. Education in agriculture is moving from a concentration on memorizing detail and cook-book approaches to a development of creative thinking and problem solving skills. We are building the capacity to access and apply a wide range of information resources. There is a growing congruence of classroom teaching and adult education in extension, an evolution that will lead to better curriculum planning for a life-long educational and learning experience. All the key players in US agriculture will take greater responsibility for their own learning in this system, being empowered to conduct both on-station and on-farm research, design learning activities, and evaluate progress and applications of information to real world challenges. This paper describes what is happening in the US in research, in teaching, and in extension. We also envision a new paradigm for education in the future. Instead of preparing to react or adjust to a predictable future, an empowered rural populace can begin to design a more desirable future. With increased focus on scarce resources, fragility of the environment, and the lessons of nature, we can take creative approaches to systems design and begin to make decisions today to create a more sustainable future for tomorrow." @default.
