Population density (in agriculture: standing stock or plant density) is a measurement of population per unit land area. It is mostly applied to humans , but sometimes to other living organisms too. It is a key geographical term.
The physiological density or real population density is the number of people per unit area of arable land. A higher physiological density suggests that the available agricultural land is being used by more and may reach its output limit sooner than a country that has a lower physiological density.
Population density (people per km 2) by country. This is a list of countries and dependencies ranked by population density, sorted by inhabitants per square kilometre or square mile. The list includes sovereign states and self-governing dependent territories based upon the ISO standard ISO 3166-1.
Agricultural productivity is becoming increasingly important as the world population continues to grow. [14] As agricultural productivity grows, food prices decrease, allowing people to spend less on food, and combatting hunger. [15] India, one of the world's most populous countries, has taken steps in the past decades to increase its land ...
This article includes the table with land use statistics by country.Countries are ranked by their total cultivated land area, which is the sum of the total arable land area and total area of permanent crops.
“If a sweet potato is about the size of your fist (roughly 5 inches x 2 inches) then it will be suitable for one person. If it’s the size of two fists, then it can serve two people.”
The land equivalent ratio can be used whenever more than one type of yield can be obtained from the same area. This can be intercropping of annual crops (e.g. sorghum and pigeonpea ) [ 1 ] or combination of annual and perennial crops e.g. in agroforestry systems (e.g. jackfruit and eggplant ).
