WHAT HAS LED TO MORE FOOD BEING PRODUCED?
• List the 5 main reasons why you think, on average, food production has increased.
• For each reason suggest 2 continents where this will be an important reason.
• Your reasons will probably fit comfortably in one or more of the following categories. Use the text and weblinks to write brief notes on the main reasons - emphasising actual locations in your information. If you prefer, bullet points are fine by me.
