21、 either the basic assumptions behind it or the way the concept is put to use. This is especially _36_ in agriculture, where sustainable development is often taken _37_ the only measure of progress without a proper appreciation of historical and cultural perspectives.To start with, it is important to
22、 remember that the _38_ of agriculture has changed greatly throughout history, and will _39_ to do so. Medieval（中世纪的） agriculture in northe rn Europe fed, clothed and sheltered a mainly rural society with a much _40_ population density(密度) than it is today. It had minimal _41_ on biodiversity, and a
23、ny pollution it caused was typically localized. In _42_ of energy use and the nutrients captured in the product it was _43_ inefficient.Whats more, demand for animal products in developing countries is growing so fast that _44_ it will require an extra 300 million tons of grain a year by 2050. Yet t
24、he growth of cities and industry is reducing the amount of water _45_ for agriculture in many regions.All this means that _46_ in the 21st century will have to be very different from _47_ it was in the 20th. This will require radical thinking. For example, we need to move away from the idea that tra
25、ditional _48_ are inevitably more sustainable than new ones. We also need to _49_ the idea that agriculture can be “zero impact”. The key will be to abandon the rather simple and static measures of sustainability, which _50_ the need to maintain production without increasing _51_.Instead we need a m
26、ore flexible interpretation, _52_ that looks at the pros and cons of all the various way land is used. There are many different ways to measure agricultural performance besides food production: energy use, environmental costs, water purity, carbon footprint and biodiversity. It is clear, for example
27、, _53_ the carbon of transporting tomatoes from Spain to the UK is less than that of producing them in the UK with additional heating and lighting. But we do not know _54_ lower carbon footprints will always be better for biodiversity.What is crucial is recognizing that _55_ agriculture is not just
