As you'll have noticed when you drove here, most of the land around the park is farmland.(當你開車來這里的時候，你會發現，公園周圍的大部分土地都是農田。)

Trees need more water as temperatures rise, but the prolonged droughts have robbed them of moisture, making whole forests easily cleared of trees and turned into farmland.(隨著溫度的升高，樹木需要更多的水，但是長期的干旱剝奪了它們的水分，使得整片森林很容易被砍伐，變成了農田。)

Opening up new farmland was a possibility, but most of what was suitable had already been exploited and further reclamation was technically unfeasible.(開辟新農田是可能的，但大部分適宜的土地已經開發，進一步開墾在技術上是不可行的。)

The increased productivity from farmland made some countries self-sufficient in grain and livestock, and offered effective protection against famine.(農田生產力的提高使一些國家在糧食和牲畜方面能自給自足，并為防止饑荒提供了有效的保護。)

Once the damage is done, it will take many years for the farmland to recover.(一旦損壞造成，農田需要許多年才能恢復。)

One acre of farmland used for raising cows can produce 250 pounds of beef.(一英畝用于養牛的農田可以生產250磅牛肉。)

We took a gravel road that meandered through farmland.(我們走上了一條蜿蜒穿越農田的石子路。)

It is surrounded by 62 acres of farmland.(它被62英畝的農田環繞著。)

They opened up large areas of wasteland and turned them into farmland.(他們在荒原上拓出大片農田。)

The Netherlands has been reclaiming farmland from water.(荷蘭一直在圍海造田。)
