AG-BAS-1 The student evaluates human needs and demonstrates the role of agriculture in meeting the needs of humans: historically, currently and in the future.

AG-BAS-1g Compares and contrasts US and world agriculture practices.

Materials Developed from: AgriScience, 4th ed. 2006 J. Lee and D. Turner Pearson/Prentice Hall Chapter 1: Human Needs and AgriScience, pgs 28-29

Agriculture around the World Farming practices vary considerably around the world.

Agriculture around the World Developed nations (US, Canada, Japan, Europe) have advanced food systems – using science and technology.

Agriculture around the World Developing nations may have primitive agriculture and lack technology.

Agriculture around the World Areas of contrast are: 1.Soil and Climate 2.Mechanization 3.Improved crops 4.Commerce 5.Education of People

Soil and Climate Affect Practices Developed Developing Soils and climates that support the production of food and fiber Poor soils and extremely dry or wet climates

Mechanization Affects Practices Developed Developing Tractors, power equipment, lower levels of hand labor, GPS and variable rates of application of chemical products High levels of hand-labor and low levels of mechanization; animals may be used for power

Improved Crops Affects Practices Developed Developing Crops selected to produce high-yields, including genetically modified crops Fewer improved crops with lower yields

Commerce Affects Practices Developed Developing Systems for buying and selling food and fiber Poor transportation, lask of storage facilities, no easy way to buy and sell

Education Affects Practices Developed Developing People have higher levels of education, including agricultural and agriscience education People have lower levels of education and very little agriculture or agriscience education

International Agriculture International Agriculture focuses on helping people improve how they farm – this includes Supplies and Services, and Marketing and Processing.

International Agriculture Now, the US exports technology to developing countries to help them produce items for export to the US
