Madden: Industrialists address problems by simplifying them, but in farming that strategy usually leads to oversimplification. ███ ████████ ██████████████ ███ █████ █████████ ███ ████████ ██ █████████ ███ ████████ ████████████████ ████ ███████ ████ ██████ ███ ███████ █████ ██ █ ████ █████ ██ ██████████ ██████ ██ ██████████ █████ ██████████ ████ ███ █ ███████ ██ █ ████ ██ ██████████ █████████ ████ ███ █████ █████ █ ██████ ██ █ ██████████ ████ ███████ ████████ ███ ███████ ████ ██████ ████ ███████████ ██ ███ ██████ ██ ███ ██████████████ ███ ██ ███ ███████
Industrialists' problem-solving strategy of simplification leads to oversimplification in the domain of farming. For example, an industrialist sees water retention and drainage as opposite functions. In fact, good soil has both properties at once. Industrialists would facilitate retention by using a terrace or dam, and they would facilitate drainage using a drain tile, ditch, or subsoiler. In farming, more problems are created than solved using the industrialists’ methods.
Effective problem-solving in farming requires recognizing the complexity of a given problem.
Industrialists' preferred strategy is unhelpful in solving at least some farming problems.
