NY Sengphet Farm In Mason Tennessee: Case Study

Over the years agriculture has nearly diminished from the workforce. Why is this happening? In fact, ever since the Industrial Revolution’s promises of “big city success” agriculture has taken a hit. Agriculture has been a foundation for the infrastructure of the United States since it’s creation. Agricultural careers are a necessity for the nation. It is important through the history, from whom it affects, the effects on the environment and people, and to find a solution to the loss of this core element.

Permaculture is a system of agriculture and society whose design is inspired by patterns observed in natural ecosystems. As Mollison states: "Permaculture is a philosophy of working with, rather than against nature; of protracted and thoughtful observation rather than protracted and thoughtless labor; "[1]. The Permaculture movement began in the 1970's as an alternative farming strategy that seeks "permanent agriculture". The term evolved to permanent-culture, since the social aspects are important in the agriculture. The term permaculture goes beyond food production, it is a sustainable system that provides food, energy, shelter, as well as the social components [2][3].

A discourse community follows Swales’ six characteristics: members share common goals, has a form of communication, a form of feedback, genres, a specific lexis, and has a level of expertise all within the group (Swales 25). I believe the Future Farmers of America is a great candidate for this topic for that it falls in to the categories listed by Swales. The start of Future Farmers of America came in 1900s in the state of Virginia. Adolescent to teenage males were not interested in farming and did not want to take over the family farms. This led to a homegrown farmer becoming the supervisor of Agriculture Education and set out to fix this problem, Walter Newman. With the help of Edmund C, Magill, Harry W. Sanders and the most influential Henry

While the Midwest may be “the breadbasket of the United States,” the Central Valley of California is the entire rest of the Thanksgiving meal on the table for the country. With its fertile soil, Mediterranean climate, and expansive flat land, the Central Valley produces more than 250 different crops that produce more than $20 billion annually, meaning it provides over half the produce grown in the United States. Recent droughts, recession, and growing urbanization in California have changed the conversation around farming practices and the large role family farms still play in the state. Popular opinions circulating the urban areas were calling into question the sacrifices farms were making throughout the drought, believing they got a

On June 15th, 1836 Arkansas became the twenty-fifth state in the nation and slave assisted plantations were still the backbone of the economy. After the Civil War (1861-1865), the state coped with the abolishment of slavery by creating the alternative agricultural systems of tenant farming and sharecropping. Landlords leased the land (the ground itself) to tenant farmers, not any structures that may/may not have been on the property - although if such existed, the tenant could make use of them. If the land did contain structures like a house, barn, or outbuilding, sometimes even equipment, the landlord did not have to guarantee habitability or effect repairs; nor were they liable for any physical injuries sustained on the leased property for any reason (McKinney II, J.C., 2013, p. 1049-1112). Tenant farmers leased a property "as is, where is" and moreover, they became responsible for keeping the property, or equipment, in "as good or better condition" than they received it. The adoption of Caveat Lessee codified this aspect of the landlord-tenant relationship and is enforced to this day even though tenants are now renting primary living spaces instead of land. While the object of a lease has changed and modernized, these laws

The Labor Unions protect their workers in many different ways people do not know. The Unions make it possible for their members to receive adequate pay better benefits, have left of absences, and have vacation time when you ask and not take the punishment for it. Once you are in the union books it is hard to be fired from it. There is a downside of it, you can be laid off which is not being fired.

I have always lived on a farm for the majority of my life. Nowadays life now on a farm for me is much more different then how life was back then. The kids back then had it tough too they most likely had to work all day on the fields and your future was already determined once you were born. Just because there was no one else to take over the farm once your dad got too old or incapable to work. So with this said you were going to take up on you fathers trade for the family. Now though everyone has options on what they want to become, but the real question is, is that when you lived on a farm back then was your future almost always guaranteed to become a farmer?

Agriculture was the most important economic activity in America from the founding of Virginia in 1607 to about 1890. Although farming declined rapidly in relative economic importance in the twentieth century, U.S. agriculture continued to be the most efficient and productive in the world. Its success rested on abundant fertile soil, a moderate climate, the ease of private land ownership, growing markets for farm produce at home and abroad, and the application of science and technology to farm operations.

Agriculture in the United States has changed dramatically over the centuries. Since the 1960’s large commercial farms have been leading in sales. As a direct result of their success we, as a society, have access to affordable food. However, the success of large farms has lead to many negative impacts such as increased usage of resources and decreased diversity in crop fields. This begs the question, what can be done to reduce the negative impacts of large farms. One solution growing in popularity is sustainable agriculture. The idea of sustainable agriculture is to create farms that need little to no outside help from irrigation, pesticides, or fertilizers. Sustainability can be achieved in many way through
