What are the social and environmental ramifications of only a small percentage of the U.S. population being involved in agriculture and ranching?
What will be an ideal response?
If students search the Internet, cutting and pasting this exact question, they will find information on food insecurity as a result of having food produced by a small percentage of the U.S. population, and the trend toward urban agriculture as a way to combat this insecurity. Urban, lowincome people are susceptible to food insecurity since they do not grow their own food. Unlike their rural counterparts, they usually have no access
to knowledge concerning the nutritional value of fresh foods and tend to
eat more unhealthy choices, leading to obesity and lifestyle illnesses, such as
diabetes. By participating in urbanized community gardens for the purpose
of growing vegetables and fruit, they gain food security and have access to
knowledge about nutritional foods.
