APBL - Learning Issues

The learning Issues that we discussed:

-       How to keep prices low and affordable? (What can we do to achieve this aim?)
-       What are needed for farming? (Skills, knowledge, seeds, land area of 5PPS soccer field, …)
-       What are the skills for farming? (Planting, harvesting, or …)
-       What should we plant to feed the population of Singapore? (Check the types of crops, vegetables or plants that can be grown in Singapore – hint: the weather of Singapore is a factor, Type of soil in Singapore is also another factor, what are some other factors?)
-      How else can we get food besides importing them? (What do we import to Singapore? Can we grow our own plant/ crops/ food? Can we have fish farms, chicken farms in order to have our own fishes or chicken?)

Please pick one and complete your research within your groups.

Work as a team!
