Please Sir.
Follow the rules for posting a verbal question.
The title must be the first sentence and the table must be formatted in the proper manner here how in one second

Even though the pragmatism (approach) of agricultural production is inherently devoted to mass production. yet , this approach is still not enough to solve the world's famine

i don't understand current organization of agricultural production is part of the problem not only a phase of it so
the blank 1 should be A. responsible for
and for blank 2 as the following sentence ""two to five times more grain is required to produce the same number of calories in meat as can be obtained through the direct consumption of grain"" describe the blank so it must be F. inefficiency
what type of pragmatism from consume 5 calories of grain to produce 1 calorie of meat
the blank 1 should be A. responsible for
and for blank 2 as the following sentence ""two to five times more grain is required to produce the same number of calories in meat as can be obtained through the direct consumption of grain"" describe the blank so it must be F. inefficiency
what type of pragmatism from consume 5 calories of grain to produce 1 calorie of meat

agree Sir
Pragmatism does not have much sense

I too struggled with this and would definitely get this wrong if doing for the first time. But I saw somewhere that they are using a lesser used definition of pragmatism meaning AN APPROACH (which is precariously close to the general definition =rationality).
consider: "What pragmatism do you propose to solve this?"
Infuriating, I know.
