How does Boserup’s hypothesis regarding agricultural intensity relate to changes in population density within rural areas?
Reduction in agricultural land use following out-migration prompted by overpopulation.
To human ingenuity results in increased yields through intensified farming techniques due to higher population pressure.
Adoption of technology increases yields up to a point, after which they decline regardless of population pressures.
No significant relationship; multiple factors beyond population density influence agricultural intensity.
