本文研究人类上万年历史中的农业制度变迁,分析这一变迁对人类社会的影响。作者认为,世界人口在本世纪中叶将达90亿人,从现在起不断提高农业生产力水平与粮食产量是应对世界人口增长的当务之急。进化主义生物学家贾热德.戴蒙德认为农业的发明为人类社会带来了过大的负面结果,是人类史上最大的失误。作者对此进行了反驳,并指出,不仅历史上的农业发明和农业革命导致了人类社会的重大发展,并且20世纪以遗传学和基因技术为基础的农业发展将是人类解决自身生存困境的最佳和惟一的选择。
This paper studies the changes of agricultural system in the history of thousands of years of human beings and analyzes the impact of this change on human society. The author believes that by the middle of this century, the world’s population will reach 9 billion people. From now on, it is imperative to continuously raise the level of agricultural productivity and grain output in response to the world’s population growth. Evolutionary biologist Jarre Diamonde believes that the invention of agriculture has brought too much negative consequences for human society and is the biggest mistake in human history. The author contradicts this and points out that not only historic agricultural inventions and agricultural revolutions led to major development of human society, but also the development of agriculture based on genetics and genetics in the 20th century will be the most important for mankind to solve its own predicament Good and the only choice.
