Good morning everyone and welcome to week 2 of online learning! Week 1 Assignments Please make sure you have turned in all 3 assignments to me from week 1: the case study from the fertilizer power point, the notes on global agriculture, and the snapshot of agriculture of the country of your choice. All the assignments are on the blog and I revised a couple of them to fix formatting issues. Please let me know if there are still any problems. Overall I've seen excellent work, keep it up! Week 2 Assignment 1 Last week we looked at global agricultural systems, mostly to put the United States in context. This week we will be taking a closer look at the agricultural system here in the US. Our agriculture is highly advanced and diverse, making it difficult to look at it all at once. Instead, we will be focusing on the most important agricultural product in the US: corn. This week's assignment is to watch the documentary King Corn (link below) on YouTube and follow along in your notes (below). This documentary goes through many of the complexities in growing corn and the role that corn plays not only in our agricultural system but in our entire society. The documentary is about 90 minutes, so this will be your assignment through Wednesday (30 mins per day). Thursday and Friday we will be working on a summarizing activity. As always, please let me know if you have any questions. I will be posting another greenhouse update fairly soon. Have an awesome day, I miss you guys!
