Improving Crop Yields: Methods for Increasing Productivity

The video discusses methods to improve crop yields, focusing on enhancing photosynthesis and providing optimal growing conditions. It covers the use of glasshouses to control limiting factors like light, temperature, and carbon dioxide. The importance of fertilizers for plant growth and pest control methods, including chemical pesticides and biological controls, are also explained.
