Know your agroecosystem
The first step to knowing your agroecosystem is knowing your broader ecosystem region. Once you have a handle on the natural ecosystem, you are ready to tackle the managed ecosystem. An agroecosystem can be defined as a management strategy applied to a natural ecosystem. Compare the NRCS map of cultivated lands in U.S. (below) to the EPA map (above) to get a first idea of U.S. agroecosystems.
Nearly every state has resources in agroecosystems. Agroecosystem Research at Texas A&M
