Production and Consumption

(Originais Teachy 2023) - Question Medium of Geography

In the food production process, various environmental and economic factors are considered. Farmers, for example, must choose which crops to plant based on soil conditions, climate, and market demand. Considering this context, explain how corn production can be influenced by global warming and discuss possible consequences of this phenomenon for the food production and consumption chain. Consider aspects of climate change and impacts on agricultural productivity and product distribution.
a.
Corn production can be influenced by global warming due to climate changes, which can directly affect the development and productivity of crops. Possible consequences include decreased supply, price increases, restructuring in the food industry, changes in the geographical distribution of suitable cultivation areas, and threats to the food security of corn-dependent communities.
b.
The production of corn is immune to global warming, as it is a highly adaptable plant that grows in various climatic conditions without suffering impacts on productivity. Therefore, there are no possible consequences for the food production and consumption chain.
c.
Global warming can affect corn production only in specific regions, such as tropical ones, where pests and diseases can spread, but this does not have a significant impact on global corn production or its implications for the food production and consumption chain.
d.
Global warming may even increase corn productivity, as higher temperatures can prolong the growth period and increase plant size. This will result in greater availability of corn, reducing prices and improving food security.
e.
Climate changes caused by global warming may lead to a decrease in corn productivity due to loss of biodiversity, but will not influence the product's market supply, keeping prices stable and the production and consumption chain unchanged.

And vice versa, what do you do at home but can't do at school? Describe something that is very different between school and home and explain why this difference exists.

The Southern Common Market (Mercosur) is an international organization created in 1991 by Argentina, Brazil, Paraguay, and Uruguay, with the aim of promoting economic integration among these countries. However, the integration process of the bloc faces considerable challenges both economically and politically. Considering the importance of Mercosur for the region and the complexity of the factors involved in its integration, analyze and discuss the following aspects: 1) Evaluate how the diversity of interests and economic asymmetries among Mercosur members can influence the adoption of common policies in the bloc, highlighting concrete examples of measures that have been hindered or facilitated by these issues. 2) Examine how political changes in the governments of member countries can affect the dynamics of Mercosur's economic integration, considering both changes in political alignment and adopted economic orientations. Specify how a scenario of political instability in one of the countries could impact decision-making and the implementation of internal Mercosur agreements.
