Math on the Farm


Book Description

Explores the different ways that math is used on a farm.




Math on the Farm


Book Description

Math is everywhere - even on a farm! Step into your boots and take a look around. Farms are filled with animals, fields, tractors, and... math!




Maths on the Farm


Book Description

The Maths at Work series examines how people around the world use common basic maths skills in their jobs. This book looks at maths on the farm, and includes chapters on counting, measuring, shapes, and telling the time. The final page of each chapter ends with a relevant maths teaser question for the reader, so they can put their own maths skills into practice.




Multiplication on a Farm


Book Description

Reinforces multiplication and critical thinking skills, and provides a better understanding of the use of real-world math through examples involving the running of a farm.




Practical Mathematics for Precision Farming


Book Description

As the public and producers becomes more aware of the environmental and economic benefits of precision farming, there has been increased demand for quality training to accurately evaluate spatial variability within fields. Practical Mathematics in Precision Farming provides hand-on training and examples for certified crop consultants (CCAs), farmers, crop consultants, and students (both undergraduate and graduate) on how to conduct to conduct and analyze on-farm studies, write simple programs, use precision techniques to scout for pests and collect soil samples, develop management zones, determine the cost of production, assess the environmental consequences of precision techniques, understand soil test results, and develop site-specific nutrient and plant population algorithms. Using real agronomic examples, the reader is taught the crucial task of managing products and inputs for application at the right rate, place, and time.




Feeding Time at the Farm


Book Description

Engaging story lines and relatable contexts assist readers in understanding the fundamentals of numbers and operations in base ten. Students will learn how to extend the count sequence and gain an understanding of place value in order to apply that understanding to addition and subtraction equations. Age-appropriate text and eye-catching visuals make these concepts easy to understand for beginning math students. Cows, pigs, and horses all need to be fed, and that task can be used as a lesson in place value, too. Readers will learn how to subtract multiples of ten as a way to solve subtraction equations. This volume satisfies CCSS Math Standard 1.NBT.C.6. This book should be paired with "Feeding Farm Animals" (9781477721360) from the InfoMax Math Readers Program to provide the alternative point of view on the same topic.




Planning My Farm


Book Description

Shapes are everywhere, and understanding geometric properties is an essential part of math education. A comprehensive introduction to geometry is told through relatable narratives and real-world situations, teaching readers how to recognize geometry in everyday life. Engaging visuals and age-appropriate content work together to reinforce complex math concepts. Readers join the narrator as she plans a farm, learning how to partition a rectangle into same-size squares. This volume meets CCSS Math Standard 2.G.A.2.







Mathematics for Agriculture


Book Description

PLEASE PROVIDE COURSE INFORMATIONThe primary intent of Mathematics for Agriculture is to provide a relevant review of basic arithmetic, statistical interpretation, and algebraic concepts to prepare students for mathematics involved in other agriculture and horticulture courses. However, the book would readily lend itself for use as a general math text in an agricultural curriculum. The application problems use current and realistic agricultural situations similar to those encountered by professionals engaged in agriculturally related occupations and industries. Because the math skills required in solving problems in the text range from the very simple to the more challenging, the book can be adapted to various grade levels. Math plays an important part in everyone's life, but the increasing complexity of agricultural technology makes it mandatory that workers in agricultural occupations have skills in the analysis and solution of mathematical problems. A prominent unit on using both the English and metric systems and making conversions from one system to the other is provided. A separate Answer Key is also available.
