Can anyone help me? I have to watch this video on Youtube called America Revealed The Food Machine which is about 53 minutes. And at about 17:03 minutes to 17:17 minutes there is something they are saying that answers one of my questions that I have for my worksheet but I can't quiite catch what they are saying.
The question says : The two major changes that have happened to allow that increase are new ______ and water deliver through _______
I hear him say irrigation and something fertilizer
Can anyone help me
It seems logical that the first blank is fertilizer and the second blank is irrigation.
The first blank could also be hybrid seeds (which produce greater yields). ????
The next question from the video says On average Americans eat _____ caloroies more each day than our ancestors did.
Around 29:19 to 29:56 they talk about this. Would I put 2,000 calories?
or do I put 600
33:08 to to 34:14 they say stuff that can help me answer two questions

Of course, I can help you. To figure out what is being said in the video at the specific time frame you mentioned (17:03 to 17:17 minutes), you have a few options:
1. Adjust the playback speed: You can slow down the video playback speed to make it easier to understand what is being said. On YouTube, you can do this by clicking on the settings (gear) icon in the bottom right corner of the video player, selecting "Playback speed," and then choosing a slower speed like 0.75x or 0.5x.
2. Use subtitles or closed captions: Check if the video has subtitles or closed captions available. Click on the "CC" button in the bottom right corner of the video player to enable them. This can help you read the text of what is being said, even if you're having trouble hearing it.
3. Transcription websites: If the video doesn't have subtitles or closed captions, you can use transcription websites like otter.ai or YouTube transcription tools. These tools allow you to enter the URL of the video and generate a text transcript of the audio. You can then search for the specific phrase you are looking for.
Based on your interpretation of the audio, it seems like the speaker mentions "irrigation" as one of the major changes that have allowed the increase, but you couldn't quite catch the second item. It may be related to water delivery, possibly "improved" or "enhanced" water delivery using a specific method or technology. However, it's important to confirm this by following the steps above to get an accurate and complete answer.
