Answer:

Industrial agriculture promote farming techniques that are ecologically destructive by using fertilizers and using processed feeds to feed the animals. Fertilizers contain harmful chemicals that may not be seen on the plants since its main function is to kill the pests that eats the plants. What makes it destructive is when the particles of the fertilizer is mixed with water and then leached into the soil into the water table. The once pure water table is now contaminated. The accumulation of various chemicals from the pesticide can cause the death of aquamarine life and even humans. Also, it can destroy the components of the soil overtime because it can interact with other compounds found in the soil to create a harmful product.
