| Water-Logging | Concentrated Animal Feeding Operation | Pesticides | Monocropping | Final Jeopardy |
|---|---|---|---|---|
|
The saturation of soil with water
What is water-logging?
|
Large indoor/outdoor structures designed for maximum output used for beef cattle, dairy cows, hogs, and poultry
What is CAFO?
|
Any substance or mixture of substances intended for preventing, destroying, repelling, or mitigating any pest
What are pesticides?
|
The practice of planting the same crop on the same plot of land year after year
What is monocropping?
|
|
|
Poor and over-irrigation
What causes water-logging?
|
Overgrazing and compaction
What are problems from CAFO?
|
Pesticides can contaminate soil, water, turf, and other vegetation as well as be toxic to other organisms
What are problems of pesticides?
|
Soil depletion from lack of nutrients
What is a consequence of monocropping?
|
|
|
Displacement of air
What is a consequence of water-logging?
|
more animals on less land= higher profiting
What is a benefit of CAFO?
|
controls pests, increases profit
What is one benefit of pesticides?
|
Can increase short term production and profit
What is one benefit of monocropping?
|
Waterlogging- aerate the soil
CAFO- providing more land for animals Pesticides- remove overwintering sites Monocropping-rotate crops
What is one way you can solve each problem of these problems: Water-logging, CAFO, Pesticides, and Monocropping
