Masa depan Indonesia pada hakikatnya ada di lahan basah. Pernyataan yang secara historis dibuktikan oleh raja-raja Nusantara yang menempatkan daerah kerajaannya di sepanjang aliran sungai-sungai besar, seperti Sungai Musi, Batanghari, Barito, Kapuas, Kahayan, dan lainnya. Sejak lama lahan basah yang merupakan dataran aluvial sungai dikembangkan menjadi daerah pertanian tanaman pangan dan perkebunan karena didukung oleh kesuburan tanah dan ketersediaan air yang melimpah. Secara historis, perta nian di lahan basah menjadi penghasil komoditas-komoditas penting dan strategis untuk pangan, pakan, papan, dan obat-obatan herbal. Namun, dalam perkembangannya, dukungan ilmu pengetahuan dan teknologi ...
The burgeoning demand on the world food supply, coupled with concern over the use of chemical fertilizers, has led to an accelerated interest in the practice of precision agriculture. This practice involves the careful control and monitoring of plant nutrition to maximize the rate of growth and yield of crops, as well as their nutritional value.
In this book J. M. Balkin offers a strikingly original theory of cultural evolution, a theory that explains shared understandings, disagreement, and diversity within cultures. Drawing on many fields of study--including anthropology, evolutionary theory, cognitive science, linguistics, sociology, political theory, philosophy, social psychology, and law--the author explores how cultures grow and spread, how shared understandings arise, and how people of different cultures can understand and evaluate each other's views. Cultural evolution occurs through the transmission of cultural information and know-how--cultural software--in human minds, Balkin says. Individuals embody cultural software and...
