On March 11 at around 2:46pm Japan was a witness of a massive 8.9/9.0 magnitude earthquake. It caused damage with blackouts, fire and tsunami. Nuclear Power Station and the cooling systems at three separate reactors are suffering problems. Officials have reported that a partial meltdown has likely occurred at the reactors, though the extent of the damage to the core is not yet clear. If the reactors melt then radiation poison will spread through Japan and neighboring countries. The soil will be unable to grow produce and Japan will have to buy produce from other countries like America. Some people believe that the end of the world is coming. If produce will become less susceptible then we will not have enough food and die. Some people believe that it may be good for America because if we improve our agriculture then Japan and neighboring countries will buy from us freeing us from debt. I believe it would be an awesome thing for America but Japan will have a lot of problems. Personally if I were a farmer in Japan I would move to America so that I could do what I do for a living and I could live in peace but it would be a whole new life. America is definitely different from Japans agriculture.
