ORIGIN OF AGRICULTURE

      What Is AGRICULTURE?: Is the science or practice of farming, including cultivation of the
soil for the growing of crops and the rearing of animals to provide
food, wool, and other products. Agriculture is as old as a Man, Since the time GOD Created Heaven and Earth. "According to the FORGOTTEN BOOKS OF ADEN

1. ON the third day, God planted the garden in the east of the earth, on
the border of the world eastward, beyond which, towards the sun-rising,
one finds nothing but water, that encompasses the whole world, and
reaches unto the borders of heaven.

2.  And to the north of the garden there is a sea of wafer, clear and
pure to the taste, like unto nothing else; so that, through the
clearness thereof, one may"

" GENESIS CHAPTER 1 VS 24. Vs 29

 And God said, “Let the land produce living creatures according to their kinds: the livestock, the creatures that move along the ground, and the wild animals, each according to its kind.” And it was so. ²⁵ God made the wild animals
according to their kinds, the livestock according to their kinds, and
all the creatures that move along the ground according to their kinds. And God saw that it was good."..

²⁹ Then
God said, “I give you every seed-bearing plant on the face of the whole
earth and every tree that has fruit with seed in it. They will be yours
for food. ³⁰ And
to all the beasts of the earth and all the birds in the sky and all the
creatures that move along the ground—everything that has the breath of
life in it—I give every green plant for food.” And it was so."..

" GENESIS CHAPTER 3 VS 21

 The Lord God made garments of skin for Adam and his wife and clothed them."

 With my understanding, Agriculture is as old as a man, even before Our father were created....

 In Time Of Our Forefather ADAM & EVE

Planting and rearing of animal has start since the time of our forefather, in the time of Cain and Abel.

Cain: Is a farmer the "growing of crops", while Able Is a farmer rearing of animal.

DEVELOPMENT:

Farming and rearing of animal develop in generation till DATE, in time of Noah, land of Egypt. Agriculture involving domestication of plants and animals was developed around 10,000 B.C. although earlier people began altering communities of flora and fauna for their own benefit through other means such as fire-stick farming prior to that.

AGRICULTURAL IMPROVEMENT IN THE WORLD 

Without agriculture, there is noting like life, because no one can do without food, cloth e.t.c. With agriculture we are able to provide shelter and living in good health. Crude oil is from Agricultural, Sugar cane, Maize, Rice, Wheat,Sugar beet, Soybeans, Potatoes, Cassava, Barley, Tomatoes, Vegetable Fiber, Eggs, Vegetables and melons, Cereals, Meat, Fruit, Pulses,Roots and Tubers, Vegetable oil... Agricultural is the father of life...

Dichlorvos, organophosphate - DDVP

 Dichlorvos is an organophosphate (OP) insecticide widely used in
developing countries. Because of its high acute toxicity and the consequent
dangers to workers, there are concerns whether safe use is possible under such
conditions.



    It is effective against mushroom flies, aphids, spider mites, caterpillars, thrips, and whiteflies in greenhouse, outdoor fruit, and vegetable crops. It is also used in the milling and grain handling industries and to treat a variety of parasitic worm infections in dogs, livestock, and humans. It is fed to livestock to control bot fly larvae in the manure. It acts against insects as both a contact and a stomach poison. It is available as an aerosol and soluble concentrate. It is also used in pet collars and "no-pest strips" as pesticide-impregnated plastic. In this form it has recently been labeled for use against bed bugs

Abstract

In this study, in order to elucidate the toxic nuclear effects of
dichlorvos, freshly isolated human peripheral blood lymphocytes were
incubated with 5, 10, 20, 40, 80 and 100 microg/mL of dichlorvos.
According to the results, dichlorvos induced micronuclei, decreased the
mitotic and replication indexes. It is a genotoxic product causing
chromosomal damage (an increase in micronucleus) and cell death
(decrease in mitotic and replication indexes).

DDVP COMPANY

Different type of company with the same effectiveness, but the same product: example of company like WACOT COMPANY, ACTION COMPANY AND JUBAILI COMPANY  e.t.c



Chronic toxicity
Reproductive effects
The HSE review found: "No fertility studies which are both adequately conducted and reported... Individually no study is considered adequate to assess the teratogenic potential of dichlorvos in any species". In spite of these data gaps, government ministers ruled that: "Overall the weight of evidence indicates that dichlorvos does not present a risk to fertility and reproduction in humans.

Genotoxicity
There is evidence that dichlorvos is mutagenic in bacteria, fungi, and mammalian cells in vitro, but that there is no evidence for mutagenicity in whole animals, when it is rapidly degraded.

Environmental effects
   Dichlorvos is toxic to fish and aquatic arthropods are more sensitive than fish. It is highly toxic to birds and to honey bees.

   However, by applying an arbitrary safety factor of 100 to the toxic dose for the most sensitive species, the Water Research Centre has recommended an annual average level of 0.001 µg/l (parts per billion) for freshwater species, and 0.04 µg/l for marine life in saline waters.


 Food residues
Because dichlorvos degrades fairly rapidly it is not generally found as a residue on food. The UK Working Party on Pesticide Residues monitors residues in food, and dichlorvos is rarely found if at all.
