Ⅱ.阅读理解
We're going to help her do it
Beth Wangari is a farmer in Kenya. She's one of 450 million smallholder (耕种小块农田者) farmers worldwide. Together, they produce over 25% of the worlD s food supply. But they could do much more. Across Sub­Saharan Africa, the average farm produces only 1.3 tonnes of maize (玉米) per hectare (公顷). In North America, a farm produces 7 times as much.
What Beth needs is the technology and skills that can help her get more from her land.
As one of the worlD s leading agricultural companies, Syngenta helps farmers across the world to raise harvests while saving water and soil. This is part of what we call The Good Growth Plan.
The Good Growth Plan
We promise to help farmers get through four major challenges by the year 2022.
1．Increase the average productivity of the worlD s major crops by 20% without using more land or water.
2．Increase the biodiversity (生物多样性) of 5 million hectares of farmland.
3．Reach 20 million smallholders and help them increase productivity by 50%.
4．Train 20 million farm workers on labor safety，especially in developing countries.
See how we do
As part of The Good Growth Plan we are ready to work with growers, governments and all who share our goals. We will report our progress on our website. You can find out more about The Good Growth Plan and the progress we are making at .
