Question

Analyze Argentina's Changing Economy In recent years, Argentina agricultural producers have turned to a new and increasingly profitable crop-soybeans. Soy production has increased dramatically, as has Argentina's dependence on this single crop. Work with a partner to explore the benefits and drawbacks of this development. Then have a class debate. The Rapid Growth of Soy Soybeans For generations, Argentina was known worldwide for its first-rate beef. Beef production has increased, but by 2008, Argentina's spoken products were worth millions of dollars more than its beef products. The country is now third in global soy production. Soybeans are imported by countries around the world for use in many food products, in livestock feed, and, increasingly, in biofuels. Biofuels Biofuels are an emerging energy source. Some scientists believe biofuels may help lessen dependence on soil. Sometimes these fuels can be used alone, completely replacing oil. In other cases, biofuels may be used with oil-based forms of energy. Concerns The rapid increase of soy production and exports has benefited Argentina's economy, but it has raised concerns. Much of the country's soy is grown using chemical fertilizers and pesticides, and many people are worried about the effects these chemicals could have on the environment and on the people and animals consuming soy products. Also, as soy production has increased, Argentina's farmland has become more valuable, and some small-scale farmers can no longer afford to stay on their land. The demand for additional farmland has also led to deforestation as forests are cleared to create space for soy crops. 1. Create Tables Use information in the passage to explore the pros and cons of Argentina's soy-based agriculture. 2. Analyze Cause and Effect What risks could there be in having the vast majority of a country's agricultural production dependent on one crop? 3. Identify Problems and Solutions What steps could Argentina's government take to address concerns about the effects of an increased dependence on soy?
