The industry is an economic field that produces goods for the economic development of the country. According to Muray Brayce (1960), the notion of the industry can be described in two forms. In the narrow sense, industry means a development in the industrial sector, while in the broadest sense, the industry is defined as the development of infrastructures such as power stations and transportation facilities. This is because the absence of such facilities makes modern industry impossible to create. In line with the country's economic development, many industrial sectors have been opened. Among them is industrial agriculture. Industrial agricultural plays an important role in the economy country through its contribution to national income and turnover exports and job creation. This sector is a supplier of main food as well as raw materials for resource-based industries.

However, the opening of the agricultural industry can harm the environment. What is meant by the environment? the environment is a geographical term of philosophical doctrine that emphasizes the physical aspects of the environment such as the climatic conditions of the world concerning human activities. (A. Bullock & O.Stallybrass, 1997).

The environment is divided into four components. The first component is the biosphere component which is life such as humans, animals, and plants. The second component is the lithosphere which refers to the outer layer of the earth which is very solid and forms the land area of​​the continents and islands and the ocean floor. The third component is the hydrosphere which includes lakes, seas, swamps, ponds, and rivers and the last component is the atmosphere which is the layer of air found around the earth.

The growing activity of the agricultural industry has harmed all four components of the environment.
