Horticulture societies face several issues, including:
Climate change: Horticulture societies depend on the environment to grow crops, and any change in climate patterns can severely affect the availability of water, soil nutrients, and the growth of plants.
Pests and diseases: Horticulture societies face several pests and diseases that can damage crops, leading to economic losses.
Market fluctuations: Horticulture societies face market fluctuations that can lead to price fluctuations, which can impact the income of farmers.
Limited land resources: As the population grows, the demand for land increases, leading to limited land resources for horticulture.
Labor shortage: Horticulture requires a significant amount of labor, and labor shortages due to migration, aging population, and lack of interest in farming can impact the productivity of horticulture societies.
Limited access to technology: Horticulture societies in developing countries may not have access to the latest technology, leading to lower productivity and income.
Environmental degradation: Overuse of fertilizers, pesticides, and other chemicals in horticulture can lead to soil and water pollution, which can affect the environment and human health.
