Agroterrorism WebQuest

This WebQuest was created to complement the DVD, 'Agro-Security-Safeguarding the American Food Supply'. The term Agroterrorism has been used to refer to terrorists attempting to impact agriculture. The DVD was developed for high school students and is intended to help students understand vulnerabilities that our farms and agricultural businesses may have to terrorist activities. The WebQuest includes internet activities in which students become more familiar with agricultural practices and the agencies that protect our food. There are also some case studies that will require students to make some difficult decisions.
