We solved this problem by using ecocentric, anthropocentric and technocentric and this is how we did it. We used Ecocentric solutions by replanting native prairie grasses to stable the soil naturally and promoted crop rotation and cover crops to help stop natural cycles. We used anthropocentric solutions by teaching farmers new soil conservation methods to make sure they could could keep making a living. Then we used technocentric solutions by developing new farming technologies and government scientists studied soil health.
