Agricultural productivity has increased nearly 1.8 percent per year since 1950

"Efficiency in productivity has resulted in abundant food sources that enable North American consumers to spend a smaller proportion of their income on food than do people on any other continent. A significant crop and meat export market to foreign countries has also developed"

Taken from "Introduction to Agronomy" - Craig Sheaffer

Was just beginning to read through this and found the agronomists perspective on food production interesting. Especially considering the ever increasing cost of food not only in North America but in many, many places around the world. Bitcoin fixes this. Bitcoin makes it so the gains in efficiency are felt not by the few but by the many. #HODL
