Description

Farming for the Future is one of 40 lessons from "Engaging Students Through Global Issues" (there is a cost for this publication). Through a simulation activity, students experience the challenges, decisions, choices, and impacts that subsistence farmers in the developing world face. In “village” groups, students decide which crops they will plant over 2 seasons, during which time there are randomly assigned dry and wet years.
