An Epidemiological Approach to Addressing Food Insecurity
Description
Objectives:
- Identify multiple row spacing models used by soybean farmers and determine how these planting arrangements impact crop yield.
- Explore how row spacing influences the amount of access that a plant has to the natural resources it needs to grow.
- Recommend a row spacing model that considers overall yield, economic efficiency, and potential environmental threats for a hypothetical farmer.
