We plough the fields with Tractors
With Drills we sow the land
The growth is due to DNA
Each species God has planned
We add the Fertilizers
It's N P K for grain
We provide irrigation
THEN ~ Pray to God for RAIN !
With mind-bending Technology
We do our work each day
We reap our fields with Combines
In Plastic bale the new mown hay
Agricultural Engineers
Help us strive and drive
The Farmer's a technician
Keeping his machines alive !
Then why are people starving
When we are wasting food
Food banks in our cities
Some search dustbins to feed their brood
Millions have insufficient
Subsistence farms in distant lands
Give us the opportunity
To share and care with open hands
Fertile soil and rain and CO2
And oxygen ~ are sent from Heaven above
Then thank the LORD ~ O thank the LORD
For provision with LOVE ~ AMEN
Thanks for reading ~ Comments welcome ~ Love BRIAN ~ XOX
N = Nitrogen ~ P = Phosphorus ~ K + Phophorus
CO2 is needed for PHOTOSYNTHESIS ~ CO2 combines with H20
to form Glucose ~ Starch ~ Cellulose and Oxygen. Agriculture
depends on natural cycles ~ Water ~ Nitrogen ~ Carbon etc.
