Question

A. Identify the scales of analysis in the two maps shown.

Answer 1

A. To identify the scale from the maps, it is seen that:

• The top map is regional because it is showing the average rice yields  per acre in each region.
• The bottom map is national/country scale because it shows south east Asia and it's countries.

What is a scale?

The scale of a map is the ratio of a distance on the map to the corresponding distance on the ground.

B. They were shaded to show the analysis in great detail.

C. Southeast Asia was more intense because they practiced intensive wet rice production which used up lots of water, labor, and resources. West Africa does not use land as intensively as Southeast Asia does for rice.

D. Transportation made it easier for farmers to transport goods to the market. Tractors made it easier to harvest crops.

E. In the national map of South East Asia, crop yields are much higher than those of West Africa.

This is due to South East Asia submerging into the green revolution using high amounts of fertilizer where West Africa slowly accepted the ways of the green revolution.

F. Mechanization produced high yields and increased rice production. Higher yields led to more profit which led to lower rice and water prices.

G. The fertilizers helped improve rice production.

Answer 2

The data from the map showed that Green revolution and farm mechanization helped to improve rice production in Southeat Asia and less developed countries of the world.

What is scale of analysis?

Scale of analysis of a map refers to the different units of measurement used to describe different aspects of the world.

The scale of analysis used in the two maps is economic scale of analysis.

Based on the data from the map;

• Southeast Asia are shaded in a single color in the world map but differently in the regional map since it represents the overall regional production of rice.
• The rice production data for Southeast Asia and West Africa is 0.5 ton 1.0 ton per acre indicating intensive land use for rice production.
• The use of machines in farming helped to increase food production making the Green revolution possible.
• The Green revolution resulted in increase food production in less developed countries.
• Mechanization improved rice production in less developed countries.
• The use of agricultural chemicals such as fertilizer and pesticides helped to improve rice production worldwide.
