Big changes in agriculture are taking place in Singapore. The small, Southeast Asian nation is leading a farming
revolution.
Singapore covers 724 square kilometers of land and only one percent of that land is used for agriculture. Food
production costs are higher there than the rest of Southeast Asia. As climate change and population growth threaten
food supplies, the pressure is on new farmers to answer the government’s call—to grow more with less.
“Whenever I talk about food security in Singapore, I tell people not to think land-think space because you can go
upwards and sideways.”said Paul Teng, an agriculture professor at Nanyang Technological University.
There are more than 30 vertical(垂直的)farms in Singapore-ones that grow up not across the land. Sustenir
Agriculture is one of these businesses. Its hydroponic(水栽法的)farm grows non-native foods like cherry, tomatoes
and strawberries inside buildings under artificial lighting. Then it sells the produce to local supermarkets and online
stores. Sustenir raised $16 million from investors(投资人)last year. The money will be used to expand operations in
Singapore and open in Hong Kong.
However, not everyone thinks the new technology is best. Egg farmer Milliam Ho says the government should
not depend so much on agriculture technology businesses. “Many of them have failed. That’s why I’m always asking
the government, ‘Why don`t you invest in us old-timers?’ We are more practical,” he said. Professor Paul Teng said an
issue for urban farmers is that the high cost of the technology makes their products too pricey for many people.
1．What is the second paragraph mainly about?
A．High food production costs.
B．Reasons for changes in agriculture.
C．Agricultural technology businesses.
D．Sale expansion of food markets.
2．According to Paul Teng, the way to achieve food security is
A．expanding farmland upwards
B．buying more food
C．developing facilities
D．investing more money
3．What do we know about the old-timers?
A．They work on high-tech farms.
B．They benefit from pricey products.
C．They need government’s support.
D．They reduce production costs.
4．What is the author’s purpose of writing this passage?
A．To criticize people’s traditional view of farming.
B．To support the growth of vertical farming in Singapore.
C．To introduce the latest development in Singapore’s agriculture.
D．To emphasize the importance of traditional agriculture.
