  1. 4. Type of agriculture where farmers depend on crops/livestock for survival
  2. 8. Herding or moving livestock based on seasons and climate changes
  3. 10. A type of rural survey method where property boundaries are established using a grid system; i.e. Western US & Canada
  4. 13. A type of agriculture in urban areas where members of a neighborhood can access locally sourced produce
  5. 18. Type of agriculture where farmers grow grain to feed to livestock (i.e. corn in Iowa --> livestock)
  6. 19. Process of farming only one type of crop/breed of livestock
  7. 20. Government aid in the form of money; most common in Core and semiperiphery states; allows farmers to offset high-input costs with farming; encourages certain practices
  8. 22. Settlement pattern where settlements are not near one another
  9. 23. Settlement pattern of many close urban areas/settlements; local scale: when many families live near one another
  10. 27. Acronym for a specified feeding area for livestock
  11. 28. Theory that states land further away from the market/CBD is less expensive
  12. 29. Latitude region of the world where the most productive farmland/agriculture is located
  13. 30. An agricultural revolution that was marked by the mechanization of agriculture and technologies that increased yields and reduced labor costs
  14. 31. Type of agriculture that exploits cheap labor, and produces majority cash crops
  15. 33. Movement to allow those living on the periphery/semiperiphery greater ownership of goods and direct trade with consumers/third parties
  16. 34. The process where land loses its arability due to overgrazing or overproduction of crops; major cause of the Dust Bowl in the 1930s
  17. 36. Type of agriculture characterized by a high amount of labor, capital, and a high amount of labor; located near large populations
  18. 37. Period of great agricultural diffusion as a result of European exploration to the "new world"
Down
  1. 1. Type of climate found in California, Chile, coastal Australia; semi-arid and good for produce/grapes
  2. 2. Major hearth of agriculture and civilization
  3. 3. Man who adapted proposed that disposable and fragile ag products would be located near the market, while grain crops and livestock would be placed furthest away
  4. 5. When farmers process their produce into high-value products (i.e. jam, salsa, etc.)
  5. 6. An area that lacks access to grocery stores/food; common in urban areas; disproportionately affects those in low-income areas
  6. 7. Period of agricultural advancement in GMOs, Pesticides/herbicides, and Disease resistant and higher yield crops; primarily accessible to Core, limited in Periphery
  7. 9. Also called "slash-and-burn", it requires a lot of land, and is most common in tropical regions; mostly subsistent
  8. 11. The science of farming and cultivation
  9. 12. A type of rural survey method where property boundaries extend out from rivers and roads (or other transportation networks); French Canada

  11. 15. Process used by corporations to gather resources to transform them into goods
  12. 16. Settlement pattern that follows along roads, rivers, dikes, etc.
  13. 17. A type of rural survey method where property boundaries are determined along natural features/landmarks; evident primarily in England and Eastern US
  14. 21. A type of irrigation method that evenly distributes water over a field; found throughout the US, but notably in the Western US arid climate
  15. 24. Type of climate where most of the world's intensive farming is located; type of climate throughout most of the Global South
  16. 25. A common type of agriculture used in urban areas to conserve space using
  17. 26. Agriculture that does not require a lot of labor, but does utilize large plots of land (i.e. ranching)
  18. 32. Central Asian trading network that led to increased agricultural diffusion
  19. 35. Land pattern common throughout hilly/mountainous regions of SE Asia and Latin America; highly productive and sustainable
