Life is impossible without plants
From earliest times plants play an important part in everyday life of man. Plants provide us with food, clothing and many other necessary things. The cultivation of plants is connected with man’s progress. Man’s food and clothing are produced directly or indirectly by plants.
Without plant life neither animals nor men will be able to live. There exist very many species of plants. Some of them are grown and cultivated by farmers and are called farm crops. Some plants are used directly by man, some are consumed by animals.
The scientists continue their work and we can expect new uses of plants to be found and the value of other plants to be discovered. Great progress has been made in breeding suitable plants and animals that grow best in the given environment. Life is impossible without plants.
We breathe with oxygen which comes from plants, we eat the food which also comes from plants. Man began to change plants about 10000 years ago, when he began to grow the first food plants. Plants use sunlight and make their food; they give off oxygen into the air during this process. Many elements make up a plant’s environment. Sunlight, temperature, rain and snow affect the growth of plants.

Plants and Nature
Nature has always served to man. But with the development of civilization man's interference in nature began to increase. The pollution of air and the world's ocean, destruction of the ozone layer is the result of man's careless interaction with nature.
Environmental protection is a problem of global concern. Plant formations and their environment are natural resources which man always used and uses now.

Animals and man will not live without plants because the cycle of nature links them. Plants also play a very important part in conservation and protection of soil, water and animals. Crop plants have not always been productive and useful as they are today. Long ago they were growing wild. As civilization progressed, man began studying plants more carefully. He discovered many of the new functions of plants, their structure and requirements for growth.
Soon plant science appeared and great progress in the improvement and growing of plants followed. Compared to the long history of plants on the Earth the plant breeders have improved plants for only short time, but in this short period they have contributed much to agriculture.
By selecting the best types, man is able to bring about improvements in a few years that would require thousands of years if left to nature.
