A packet of introductory calculations for use with agricultural students going into agronomy or production agriculture.

Students choose one of sixteen agriculture- or FFA-related learning activities from the grid for use during a day when the regular classroom teacher is absent. 

Students learn about economic costs and benefits and cultural costs and benefits. By practicing cost-benefit analysis, students discover that decision making is a complex task.

This activity engages students in considering the scope of costs of tools, technology, and equipment in agriculture. The goal is to correctly guess the prices of various agriculture-related items. The contestant with the closest guess without going over wins the round. This can be used as a classroom activity, or for an FFA Chapter to host an activity for the school like a pep rally.

Even when talking about different types of pollution, we were unaware of these kinds of pollution such as plastic pollution, soil pollution, agricultural pollution, smog etc. But when we study the particular topic, it is very familiar to us. Thus let us understand what agricultural pollution is, their cause, types, prevention methods and effects, elaborately. Pollution by agricultural practices has come up ever since the demand for food has increased, proportional to the increase in population. To increase the yield of farms and fields the farmers have had to resort to additional chemical fertilizers, pesticides, weedicides, hormonal treatments for the animals, nutrient laden feed and many such practices which changed the way farming was done traditionally.

The purpose of this lesson is to teach students about the history of agriculture and farming vocabulary. This lesson will allow students to think about human impacts on the earth.

Established with the aid of a Sustainable Agriculture Research and Education (SARE) grant, this project was created to offer insight into what sustainability within agriculture actually looks like. Spread across eastern Nebraska, ten different farming operations are featured across the twenty different videos. Each farmer was interviewed by a high school student from a nearby school about what their operation does, how and why they choose to manage it in a certain way, and what makes it sustainable as well as what would make it more sustainable.
