Interpret Data with Graphs, Percents, Rate and Ratio: California Agriculture in a State of Drought | The Lowdown
In this infographic, learn about the impact of drought on agriculture in California. In the accompanying classroom activity, students use information on one of the infographic graphs to compare share of production value to share of water usage for different crops and consider the implications for the choice of crops to grow in times of drought. To get the most from this lesson, students should be comfortable interpreting percentages and double bar graphs and familiar with ratio and rate.
