Industrial agriculture typically requires the lowest input of labor and energy compared to the other options listed. It relies on machinery, synthetic fertilizers, and pesticides to maximize efficiency and output, which reduces the need for manual labor and makes the system more energy-intensive. However, among the options provided, industrial agriculture is designed to be more efficient in terms of labor and energy use than intensive farming or nomadic pastoralism. The development and use of genetically modified crops can also contribute to reduced labor and energy needs, but it's typically part of an industrial agriculture system.
