Global Food Crisis Report
- The current patterns of agricultural intensification are not proving sustainable. High levels of land and water use are stretching the productive capacity of land and water systems to the limit, and severely degrading land and environmental services in the process. Climate change is expected to increase evapotranspiration and alter the quantity and distribution of rainfall, leading to changes in land/crop suitability and greater variations in river run-off and groundwater recharge.

- 72% of all freshwater withdrawals are used by agriculture, 16% by industries, and 12% by municipalities. UN-Water
- Agriculture is the largest consumer of the world’s freshwater resources, and more than one-quarter of the energy used globally is expended on food production and supply. UN-Water
- Demand for water, food and energy is increasing. Pressure on the nexus is being driven by a rising global population, rapid urbanization, changing diets and economic growth. UN-Water
- Global water demand is projected to increase by 20 to 30% by 2050. UN-Water
Aman system Advantages
Less Water
Reduce energy
Less Waste
One Input
It will grow much more food – for far less water & energy of a similar size garden.
It’s more sustainable – no waste stream. Everything can be 100% recyclable.
It provides for precise watering and feeding…in a timely manner.
- It can be done anywhere including indoors and deserts
It’s easier to learn and operate.
If stopped for any reason it can be stored and get bio-activated quickly.
It’s more productive…it will grow more food for fewer inputs in a given footprint
It’s organic by design an Eco system that recreates the rhizosphere .
It requires far less labor input…no digging, weeding or hand watering.
It’s more resilient…it will recover faster from setbacks.
Our Growing Media is a permanent asset that does not require replacement.
Diverse , Can grow root crops, melons and vine crops, fruit trees, ornamentals, grapes ,leafy greens and flowers…and even potatoes it is also used to propagate plant and seedlings.
It’s less likely (depending on its source) to harbor soil-borne diseases…and if it does contract a soil disease, it can be more readily disinfected.
