- 5. The amount of agricultural production harvested per unit of land area.
- 6. The integration of various agricultural-related activities, including production, processing, marketing, and distribution.
- 8. (GMOs) Living organisms whose genetic material has been altered through genetic engineering techniques.
- 10. An approach to designing sustainable agricultural systems that mimic natural ecosystems.
- 11. The ability of crops or plants to withstand and thrive in conditions of prolonged drought.
- 12. The farming of aquatic organisms such as fish, crustaceans, and mollusks.
- 14. A period of significant increases in agricultural productivity, primarily due to the development and adoption of high-yielding varieties of crops.
- 16. Farming The practice of growing crops in vertically stacked layers or inclined surfaces, often in urban environments.
- 17. The ability to meet the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs.
- 18. The practice of cultivating soil, producing crops, and raising livestock for food, fiber, and other products.

- 20. Crops grown primarily for the protection and enrichment of the soil rather than for market value.
Down
- 1. The practice of growing different crops in the same area in sequential seasons to improve soil health, reduce pests, and enhance yield.
- 2. The distance food travels from its place of production to the consumer.
- 3. Measures taken to prevent the introduction and spread of harmful organisms in agriculture, including diseases and pests.
- 7. The integration of trees and shrubs into agricultural systems to create environmental, economic, and social benefits.
- 9. The artificial application of water to soil or land to assist in the growth of crops.
- 13. The use of technology (such as GPS and sensors) to optimize field-level management with regard to crop farming.
- 15. A farming method that avoids the use of synthetic fertilizers, pesticides, and genetically modified organisms.
