Abstract	''Agriculture, Food, and Rural Land Use" constitutes a major part of the AP Human Geography course outline. This article explores challenging topics to teach, emerging research trends in agricultural geography, and sample teaching approaches for concretizing abstract topics. It addresses content identified as "essential knowledge" in the course description, including the role of women in food production, the interdependence among regions of food production and consumption, the prospects for a new Green Revolution in Africa, environmental consequences of agricultural practices, and the changing nature of contemporary agriculture.
