Wind Farm synthesis essay

Agricultural labot is at risk. Nearly half of agrarian workers are undocumented. As current immigration policy targets places of buisness, like farms, it is evident that the labor making up U.S. agricultural is under threat. To save the production of U.S. produce, high-tech machiene learning algorithims in agriculture and increased farming space is vital to te future of agriculture, despite the initially high investment cost.

Source A states that dat analytics and machiene learning algorithims will be part of the next generation of hydroponic farms, controlling for increasingly unstable climate conditions in an age of climate change. This point addresses potential labor availability and domestic food production concerns — which are likely not controlled for on traditional farms.

Domestic agriculture is vital to the U.S. economy and an affordable food supply for Americans. As the world's population is projected to increase by 2.7 billion from 2010–2050, an additional Brazil-sized area of arable land will be required to feed them (Source F). Given that 80% of arable land was in use by 2010, vertical farming is necessary to increase food production to meet those needs. Source B states that "for some crops, 10–20 times the yield can be obtained per acre in vertical farming compared to open-field crops." As need for produce rises and arable land decreases, vertical farming presents a path to increase the effectiveness of agriculture.

The main point of contention with vertical farming is its initial high entry cost. Despite the high cost of the shipping container systems and the high price of produce grown by vertical farms (Source D), these constraints are outweighed by an extremely high yield and controllability of conditions, and very low vulnerability to yield and quality (Source C). As this form of agriculture is improved and more widely adopted, costs of implementation are likely to decrease. Early adoption is often expensive, but as future produce needs tighten, innovation will flourish. The transition to vertical farming is not without friction. Small and mid-sized farms may lack the capital to adopt these systems, and rural agricultural communities could face displacement as production shifts to urban vertical operations. Yet these tradeoffs do not undermine the case for vertical farming. This points toward a policy need for subsidized adoption programs that ease the burden on traditional farmers.

Your draft already has a clear claim, so Row A likely earns the thesis point because it “presents a defensible position” in response to the prompt (AP English Language Scoring Rubric, “Question 3: Argument Essay,” n.d.).
For Row B, this looks around a 3/4 right now because you use specific source-based evidence, and the rubric says stronger essays “organize and support an argument as a line of reasoning composed of multiple supporting claims,” but some of your commentary still stops a little early after the evidence (AP English Language Scoring Rubric, “Question 3: Argument Essay,” n.d.).
For Row C, I would hold this at 0/1 for now, because the rubric wants a response that “consistently” shows nuance, broader context, or clear limits/implications, and your draft mostly argues one side without yet pressing on tradeoffs in a fuller way (AP English Language Scoring Rubric, “Question 3: Argument Essay,” n.d.).
A useful next move in the left pane is to check each body paragraph and ask yourself: what exact claim is this paragraph proving, and have I explained why that evidence matters for my bigger position instead of just naming the source?

Try one of these right now:
Click Continue with AI and name the body paragraph you want to strengthen first, OR revise in the left pane by adding one sentence of reasoning after each source.
Then test for sophistication by adding one real tension, like cost, scale, energy use, or who benefits first, and explain why your position still stands.

One strong draft move here is that the essay already has a workable structure, and this may be at the “good enough to build from” stage. It could still help to compare your choices with a classmate’s draft or ask your teacher where they think the line between a 3 and 4 in Row B shows up here. What score do you think your evidence/commentary row should earn right now?

This draft already has a clear, defensible claim, so Row A looks like (Argument Essay Rubric) “responds to the prompt with a thesis that presents a defensible position,” so I’d give Row A: 1/1.
For Row B, the draft uses several specific source-based details and usually explains why they matter, which fits (Argument Essay Rubric) “provides specific evidence to support all claims in a line of reasoning” and mostly shows commentary, so I’d place it at 3/4 right now.
The reason I would stop at 3 instead of 4 is that some parts still feel a little jumpy, so the commentary does not yet “consistently” explain how each piece of evidence builds the same line of reasoning (Argument Essay Rubric).
For Row C, the ending starts to do more by naming tradeoffs, equity, and policy, which could count as “articulating the implications or limitations of an argument,” so I’d give a tentative 1/1 for sophistication (Argument Essay Rubric).

So my best score for this draft is 5/6, and it may be sitting on the edge between 4/6 and 5/6 depending on how your teacher reads the commentary.
You are at a solid, good-enough draft stage for now: the claim is there, the evidence is there, and the line of reasoning is visible.
You can click Continue with AI and we can look at just one body paragraph for stronger commentary, or you can revise in the left pane by making sure each source sentence is followed by your own why-this-proves-my-claim thinking.
It may also help to get one classmate and your teacher to read just for Row B, since that row is the one most likely to move your score.
Want to check one paragraph now to see if it can move from a 3 to a 4 in Row B?
