Project Outline
Participants
are invite to explore the link between Mathematics and
Agriculture in a global setting, reaching out to individual
countries, communities and students, as they search for
the difference between the Food Producing and the Food
Importing
Countries of the world, and it’s effects on their
economies.
Variables that can improve production in some countries,
seasons and duration, measurements of growth in relation
to time and recording of activities.
How can we improve the economies and reduce the costs of
food in the less developed countries?
How can we reduce cost of food in communities and families?
Through this project students will become aware of the
possibility of a career in agriculture, the effects of
food shortage in the world, effects of famine, and will
understand
the value of organic farming, the use of locally produced
crops; and, likewise, hope to see an increase in home
gardening to reduce food bills of the family.
