Summary V5.0 Time 15 minutes Activity Expectations Students will:   Activity Expectations Students will: Answer the question, “How will we sustainably feed 9 billion people by the year 2050?” Materials Summary PowerPoint Key Terms Refer to the Glossary of Key Terms handout for any words the students need to revisit. Summary V5.0

Record your ideas as a group “How will we sustainably feed 9 billion people in the year 2050?” In groups of three or four, write down as many Best Management Practices and NEW IDEAS as you can think of to answer the question: “How will we sustainably feed 9 billion people in the year 2050?” Think of realistic solutions happening right now and also think outside the box! [If you want to discuss other interesting agricultural innovations and practices that improve sustainability, here are three in each country] Canada 4R Nutrient Stewardship – is a global program that ensures farmers apply the right source of nutrients, at the right rate, time and place specific to their farm to improve their economic, social and environmental performance. Global Positioning Systems (GPS) – machinery is guided by satellites to precisely place nutrients, seed and crop protection products at variable rates to match the soil’s productivity. Wetland Restoration – brings back the kidneys of the environment, wetlands that filter excess nutrients and help reduce water levels during floods. Africa Cell Phone Towers - increase communication and result in improved market access, education and local jobs. Improved Grain Storage – reduces spoilage and allows grain to be sold at a premium. School Meal Program – nourishes children resulting in improved learning outcomes and school attendance. India Remote Control Drip Irrigation – reduces evaporation and improves water utilization by the crop; using a cell phone to turn the water on and off conserves water and energy. New Seed Varieties – increase yield, crop quality and resistance to drought, insects and disease. Marketing Cooperative – helps producers collectively sell crops, rather than individually, to increase market access and prices.

Get involved Tweet this…“How do we sustainably feed 9 billion people by the year 2050?” #journey2050 #feedingtheworldresponsibly Get involved! Emphasize to students they can make a difference in sustainability – not only in agriculture but across all sectors! Students could consider: volunteering to help a charity in need, making changes at home to be more sustainable, fundraising for charities contributing to sustainability and educating others about the challenges we face in feeding the world. All teachers who complete the survey on the Journey 2050 website (one per year) will be entered in a drawing to win a $100 gift certificate! The certificate can be used as a donation to pre-selected charities contributing to sustainability. Two drawings of 25 names will take place on Dec. 1st and June 1st, and winning teachers will be notified. For those who use the online game, students must enter your Teacher Code on at least TWO of the games in order for you to be entered in the drawing. Your reports will be posted under Student Reports. We require at least 10 student reports per game on your profile.

Journey expansion HOME EDITION: FARMERS 2050 The Journey 2050 game is available in the iOS, Android and Windows Stores; however, it wasn’t intended for public use. It has timers to make sure everyone starts and stops roughly at the same time, and it has less commodities simply because there isn’t enough time in the program to incorporate everything in agriculture.   Students who want to play at home are encouraged to download: Farmers 2050 SCHOOL EDITION: JOURNEY 2050 HOME EDITION: FARMERS 2050

MORE CROPS, ANIMALS & CRAFTING. FREE. NO IN-APP PURCHASES. EVER. ONE FARM. NO TIMERS. MORE CROPS, ANIMALS & CRAFTING. CRAFT SELL TRADE GROW CROPS FARMERS is an animated farming game. Droughts occur, mortgage payments come due, and farm chores never stop. Students will discover what it really takes to feed the world.   Players will have one farm, instead of three, to grow crops, raise animals, and craft goods to sell in your local community all the while managing the three pillars of sustainability: environment, economic and social. Sound familiar! Along the way, real farmers from across the world will show students what they are doing on their farms. Farmers is FREE to play and there are no advertisements or in-app purchases. It is available on iOS and Android devices. Learn more at www.Farmers2050.com RAISE ANIMALS FREE. NO IN-APP PURCHASES. EVER.
