AP Human Geography Take out your homework and put it on your desk. How old is von Thunen’s theory? According to von Thunen, how does the cost of land change the closer you get to a market place? Why do labor intensive goods need to be closer to business centers? Why are livestock ranching and grain farming in the last circles of von Thunen’s model? Name and explain two criticisms of von Thunen’s theory.

Organic Agriculture (#1)

U.S. Dairy Production (2-3) 2014

U.S. Wheat Growing Areas (#4-5)

(#6-7)

Global Distribution of Fertilizer Use, 1960-2001 (#8-10)

Tractors per 1,000 Hectares (#11) Global mechanization of agriculture.

Global Distribution of Maize Production (#12 & 13)

(#13-16)

Cattle Production (#17-18) The darker the color, the more beef is produced.

Value-added specialty crops (20-21) Small farmers struggle to compete with big business, so what can they do? Grow weird stuff! If you grow something unique, you don’t have to compete with major corporations that don’t make that product. Examples: Buffalo/bison Specialty cheeses Luxury foods (caviar, escargot)

Local food movements (22) Backlash against globalized agriculture and GMO’s has led to growth of local food markets People want fresh, organic foods, and they want to support local farmers Even happening here in Houston! We have a growing number of local farmer markets and restaurants that advertise that they only use local products

Food deserts (23) Urban areas where a significant portion of the population (over 1/3) live more than a mile from a supermarket (10 miles in the country) Generally low income areas Leads to serious health issues for residents (no quality food is available) Do you live in one? If this is all you’ve got for food, that’s not good.
