Do Now 2/27/14Imagine you lived in this house on
the edge of a cliff
1) What would some concerns be about living there?
2) What potential dangers might you face? Explain how these dangers may occur.

How does erosion differ from weathering?
• Weathering BREAKS DOWN the Earth’s material into sediments.
• Erosion TRANSPORTS the sediments to a new location.
STOP:What are the
2 different types of
weathering?

Where can erosion be seen in real life?
• The entire river basin in Louisiana is the product of sediment deposition from the Mississippi River (following the latest rise in sea level about 5,000 years ago.)

–Provides pore space for water & air
• Older soils are:–More
weathered–Lower in
certain essential nutrient minerals

You need a diverse, balanced diet!
• Carbs, fats and proteins are essential for storing and providing energy
• Proteins also break down into amino acids that are very important for structuring cells
• We also need essential vitamins and minerals

Food and Agricultural Organization of the United Nations
• 925 million people are malnourished
• 15.7% of the world’s population

• People in developing countries rely primarily on grains for their diet
• Because of this agriculture, is very important in relieving world hunger

Agriculture• Farmers clear the land, plant seeds,
grow crops, and harvest them• Manage resources, such as land,
soil, water and seeds
![Page 40: Do Now 2/27/14 Imagine you lived in this house on the edge of a cliff 1)What would some concerns be about living there? 2)What potential dangers might](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022013004/56649e2a5503460f94b17940/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
• Care for growing crops from weeds and pests
• Harvested crops are used to feed the family, feed livestock, or be sold for a profit
![Page 41: Do Now 2/27/14 Imagine you lived in this house on the edge of a cliff 1)What would some concerns be about living there? 2)What potential dangers might](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022013004/56649e2a5503460f94b17940/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
4 Types of Farms
• Small tenant farms – farmers do not own the land, but work the land for a landlord – farmers are paid or get a share of the crops
![Page 42: Do Now 2/27/14 Imagine you lived in this house on the edge of a cliff 1)What would some concerns be about living there? 2)What potential dangers might](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022013004/56649e2a5503460f94b17940/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
• Family-owned farms – Family owns the farm and works the land for itself, small business farming
![Page 43: Do Now 2/27/14 Imagine you lived in this house on the edge of a cliff 1)What would some concerns be about living there? 2)What potential dangers might](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022013004/56649e2a5503460f94b17940/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)
• Commercial farms – Agribusiness companies own large farms and employ farmers to work for them – crops are sold or used for other products (i.e. corn for high fructose corn syrup)

• State-owned farms – Government owns these large farms and employs citizen farmers to work the land, largely found in former Soviet Union and China

of our food production

• More than 99% of food comes from this arable land
• Of the 2.3 billion acres of U.S. land, only 20% is sufficiently fertile for crop production
• Nearly 400 million acres of land is arable in the U.S.

What is SOIL????
• The relatively thin surface layer of the Earth’s crust consisting of mineral and organic matter.
Soil is not DIRT!

As rocks are broken down by the process called weathering , small pieces of rock (sediments) are formed.
These small pieces of rock are then eroded, or carried away.
These pieces of sediment will eventually form sedimentary rock. However, before other sediments are placed on top of them, these small pieces of rock form soil.

The 5 Soil-Forming Factors
• climate (water, wind, temperature)• biology (macro- and microorganisms, plants)
• relief (topography)
• parent material (rocks/minerals)• time
Which is the MOST important?? CLIMATE!!!
Formed from parent material (bedrock) that’s slowly broken down through weathering processes.
