The Central Plains region of Texas includes the Grand Prairie and Cross Timbers subregions. The Grand Prairie has thin soil better suited for livestock grazing than farming, with Fort Worth as the largest city. The Cross Timbers is divided into eastern and western belts by different tree species and separates the Grand Prairie from the Rolling Plains further west, where cattle ranching and farming of cotton and grains are important economic activities.
TX History Ch 9.4
The document summarizes the government and society of Texas under Mexican rule after Mexico became a republic in 1824. It adopted a constitution that gave limited powers to the central government and broad authority to states, similar to the US Constitution. However, state lawmakers rather than citizens elected the president, and there was no separation of church and state. The constitution united Texas and Coahuila as a single state, but most Texans disliked this due to lack of local control and the distant capital. Tensions increased over slavery as US settlers brought slaves despite Mexican laws restricting and then banning the practice.

Nativism in Antebellum America (AP US History)
http://www.tomrichey.net
This PowerPoint was designed to accompany a lecture on antebellum "Nativism" (resistance to Irish and German immigration) in my AP US History course. In response to the wave of Irish immigration in the 1840s, Native-born Americans mobilized first as mobs (Philadelphia Nativist Riots), and then politically in the form of the "Know Nothing" Party in the 1850s.
Mexican War and Compromise of 1850 (US History)
The Monroe Doctrine and concept of Manifest Destiny affected US relations with foreign powers by justifying American expansion westward. The US played a role in the Texan Revolution by annexing Texas after it declared independence from Mexico. This contributed to the Mexican War, where the US occupied Mexico City and gained territorial concessions through the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo, including the Mexican Cession that became the American Southwest. The Gadsden Purchase further expanded the southern border in 1853.

This document provides an overview of the Grass Roots Up Co-Operative Limited, which aims to allow communities in Nova Scotia to invest in grazing livestock from grass roots up for long-term health, social, and economic benefits. The cooperative recognizes farms and communities in Nova Scotia as assets and outlines their qualifications and needs. It discusses the historical and economic significance of cattle farming for jobs, food security, and community well-being in Nova Scotia, and presents Grass Roots Up as a cooperative solution and prescription for change that harnesses social capital.
Research Paper
The cattle industry in Texas is facing challenges due to shifting consumer interests and concerns about the environment and animal welfare. While selective breeding has created more profitable cattle, methane emissions from cattle are a problem. Producers are working to reduce methane through more efficient diets. There are also efforts to improve animal welfare conditions. However, economic declines from high feed costs and lower demand have hurt the industry, threatening jobs and state revenues. The future of the cattle industry in Texas remains uncertain.
Farming System, Types And Decisions And Distribution Ap
Farming is a system that utilizes inputs like labor, capital, seeds and animals which undergo processes like plowing, sowing, spraying and harvesting to produce outputs such as wheat, potatoes and barley. The farmer acts as the decision-maker in determining what crops to grow or animals to rear based on an understanding of favorable physical and economic conditions. Different types of farming include arable, pastoral, mixed, subsistence and commercial.

The document provides an overview of agriculture and its origins. It discusses that agriculture began as hunter-gatherer societies around 10,000 years ago and transitioned to the deliberate cultivation of plants and domestication of animals through two main types - vegetative planting and seed agriculture. This first agricultural revolution occurred in multiple hearths around the world, including Southeast Asia, Southwest Asia, Mexico, and Peru. The document then contrasts commercial agriculture practices in developed countries with subsistence agriculture in developing nations.
Land – the pacific genius
Land – the pacific geniusOceanic Transformations, conference of the Australian Association for the Advancement of Pacific Studies
The document discusses the importance of customary land (CL) systems in Pacific communities. Some key points made are:
1. CL provides food security, shelter, employment and stores biodiversity, while modern land systems have displaced people and degraded environments.
2. Pacific peoples have resisted attempts to impose individual land titling systems promoted by international organizations and companies.
3. Subsistence values from CL, along with incomes from informal cash crops, exceed formal sector wages in many Pacific countries.
4. CL systems have maintained food security in the Pacific region, unlike countries exposed to imported food that have experienced malnutrition.A Restorative Approach to Family Farm Agriculture and Prosperous Rural Commun...
This document summarizes Mike Callicrate's views on the problems facing family farm agriculture and rural communities. It outlines how large agribusiness corporations have consolidated power over the food system, squeezing out small farmers and ranchers. This has led to the decline of rural towns as farming families struggle financially. Callicrate advocates for supporting family farms and changing policies to break up corporate control of the food chain in order to create a more just and prosperous system.
Introduction to Economics
This document introduces economics as the social science dealing with scarcity and how individuals and societies make choices to allocate scarce resources. It defines scarcity, both relative and absolute, and discusses the basic economic resources of land, labor, and capital. The document also outlines the two main branches of economics - macroeconomics focused on overall economic performance and microeconomics focused on individual entities. It concludes by explaining the basic economic problems societies face and why economics is an important subject to understand rational decision making.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in Education
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
