Answer:

C. Improved technology in agriculture means it takes fewer farmers to produce the food the country needs.

Explanation:

The development of farming equipment has caused a reduction in the need for manual labor. Machines such as combine harvesters allow for vast amounts of farm work to completed in a short period. It also helps with extensive commercial farming which means there are bigger farms and fewer farmers. The Green Revolution in the mid-1900s saw the development of high yield variety crops that were stronger and more reliable. While more fertilizer and water is needed, people are not.

Softa [21]

Answer:

G

Explanation:

Although the Green Revolution is slowly replacing coal and petroleum with renewable resources, the large scale extraction and consumption of petroleum products has no historical precedent and the resources cannot be replaced.

Which conclusion explains Africa’s economic and government problems after independence
klemol [59]

Along with the fact that the infrastructural and industrial levels of the African colonies was never really developed by Europeans, the many various and opposing ethnic groups had no one to keep them in check now. As a result many civil wars took place between different religions, specific religious denominations, and specific ethnic groups of said religious denominations. Also nearly all of the leaders that broke free of European rule were woefully unprepared to lead a country both governmentally and economically. All of these factors are what lead to Africa's current problems.
