Answer:
(a) (i) Define the term "Green Revolution" as used during the period 1945 to 1985.
- The use of modern agricultural techniques became widespread around many regions in the world. This led to higher yields through the use of fertilizers, pesticides, genetically modified seeds and mechanical machinery.
(ii) Explain the principal agricultural practices/technologies associated with the green revolution.
- extensive use of fertilizers, pesticides, genetically modified seeds and mechanical machinery.
(iii) Name TWO regions, in different parts of the world, where the green revolution has had a significant impact on crop yields.
- In North America, Mexican food production increased and they stopped importing food. Although currently that has reversed, and it is importing even more food than before.
- In Brazil, agricultural production increased dramatically. Both total farmed area and yields have continued to increase in the past years becoming a threat to the amazon basin.
(b) Identify and discuss TWO social, political, or cultural conditions necessary for the success of the agricultural practices/technologies of the green revolution.
- Emigration from rural areas to urban areas which resulted in a rapid expansion of urban centers. Since less labor was needed in farms, many people left rural areas due to lack of jobs.
- People started accepting genetically modified crops, which were not well accepted at first. A lot of money was invested in research and development of new seeds, fertilizers and pesticides.
(c) Identify and discuss TWO significant economic or ecological factors that may limit the long-term success of the agricultural practices/technologies of the green revolution.
- Many new agricultural techniques have resulted in a decrease of soil fertility. In many places crops cannot grow unless a lot of fertilizer is used.
- Countries were the green revolution was originally successful, like Mexico (where it started), have reduced the total area dedicated to crops. As the yields increased, the price of food started to decrease and many small farms could not keep operating.
Answer:
False
Explanation:
In this scenario, the natural rate of unemployment would be 5% = 3% of frictional unemployment plus 2% of cyclical unemployment. The other type of unemployment that is part of the natural rate is not referenced in the question (surplus unemployment).
Cyclical unemployment is not added up because it is not part of natural unemployment.
In fact, what natural unemployment basically is, is unemployment that does not depend on business cycle, that is not cyclical. In that sense, cyclical unemployment is totally the opposite to natural unemployment, and you only reach a rate of natural unemployment, when cyclical unemployment is eliminated in a healthy economy.
Walter Co. is a manufacturer because it uses raw materials, and has a stock of merchandise inventory, work-in-progress inventory, and finished goods inventory. The current assets of Walter Co. will be:
Current Assets:
Cash 6,000
Inventories
Raw materials inventory 21,000
Work in progress inventory 40,000
Finished goods inventory 25,000
Merchandise inventory 48,000
Total inventory 1,34,000
Other assets
Accounts receivable 41,000
Prepaid expenses 1,000
Current assets 2,22,000
A manufacturing company is a company that takes in raw materials processes the raw materials and then sells the finished goods manufactured in the market. So the current assets section of the balance sheet of Walter Co. is given which will be written on the right side of the balance sheet.
