Complusory Blog Post 1 - Conclusion

Compulsory Blog Post 1 requires us to research and discuss agricultural innovations such as NILS, crop rotations and biotechnology. Instead of having all of the entries as one long blog post, we decided to spilt them into separate blog entries. We also included many different You tube videos that provided further explanation on the innovation. However, in this blog entry we would like to summarise everything that our class has learnt about agricultural innovations during this study.

Our class has learnt a lot about innovations in the agricultural industry and has also learnt about some different types of innovations. We have also discussed and justified which innovations are the most important for the Australian agriculture industry. Our students believe that the topic for a blog post for other students that do not associate farming with innovation or research could be: “Why Farmers Are Important To YOU!”, “The Changes That Farmers Have Made In YOUR Life”, and finally “A Changing Industry- How YOU Can Change The World”.

In conclusion, the key points that we have discussed include:

•  Innovations developed by farmers that have changed their lives (i.e. the toaster). 
• How the agriculture industry is always changing and developing new innovations. 
• That failure is important because it teaches us to persist in the face of adversity.
• Why things such as GPS systems and fabric innovations are important on a global scale.

We love our Aussie Farmers!
