Lowering crop yields

Description

Lowering crop yields involves intentionally reducing agricultural output to address issues such as overproduction, market surpluses, and environmental degradation. This strategy may include limiting planting areas, adjusting input use, or implementing set-aside programs. The practical intent is to stabilize prices, conserve natural resources, and prevent soil exhaustion, thereby remedying problems of unsustainable farming practices, economic imbalances, and ecological strain caused by intensive, high-yield agriculture.
