Description
Farming - a cornerstone of human civilization since Neolithic times - remains a vital part of our lives today. With over one billion people working the land, it provides food and other essential products for an increasingly large population. This book takes you on a visual journey to explore the diverse types of farms and farming practices around the world. From the latex extracted from rubber trees in Malaysia to the stepped rice fields of Bali, where Hindu priests manage traditional irrigation systems, each image offers a unique glimpse into the varied ways people cultivate and harvest food. With over 180 photographs showcasing farming from every corner of the globe, Farming presents a stunning celebration of our connection with the land that sustains us. Presented in a landscape format, this book is a must-have for anyone interested in agriculture, technology, or the natural world.
