Example: "During the agricultural phase of the project, we focused on sustainable farming techniques to improve crop yields."
Alternatives: "farming stage" or "agricultural period".
As the technologies and processes for providing for the basic needs in the agricultural phase became unproblematic enough, the focus could shift to providing material goods to elevate the level of subsistence.
Thus, the first of Malaska's societal phases, which is commonly referred to as the agricultural phase, is in Malaska's terms the society of basic needs, where technologies evolved for a more efficient and reliable production of food and shelter, the basic level of Maslowian hierarchy of psychological needs.
In the agricultural phase the germ to introduce the next phase of development were embryonic industrial techniques of producing agriculture, which then evolved into the industrial age that would add to the satisfaction of basic needs another layer, that of the production of material goods.
For example, in the agricultural phase, good sugar cane yield and a high index of TRS (total recoverable sugar) are the main drivers for high yield of ethanol per unit of planted area.
During the post war period when agriculture in Western Europe had entered a productivist phase, agricultural change was marked by trends of agricultural abandonment predominantly evident in the upland areas.
Substances retained and progressively accumulated in soils can be gradually released into the aqueous phase; agricultural soils may therefore act as environmental reservoirs for anti-infectives (Lee et al. 2007; Rooklidge 2004).
Therefore, the agricultural and oenological phases excluding the packaging, transport and consumption phases of two consecutive years were analysed.

Based on the monitoring of precipitation, soil moisture, and vegetation conditions, EPMC extracted four main agricultural drought evolution phases termed: (i) latency, (ii) onset, (iii) development, and (iv) recovery.
Ethanol yield has grown 3.77% per year since 1975 and productivity gains have been based on improvements in the agricultural and industrial phases of the production process.
