Types of farming

Commercial Farming is crops are being grown for market sale in this farming. The primary goal of agricultural farming is to make money. It need enormous regions and advanced technologies. It's possible because of the high cost of products. It is again divided into such as farming Crops are cultivated for commercial purposes in commercial grain farming are include wheat and maize. Temperate grasslands in North America, Europe, and Asia are major locations where commercial grain production is practised. Large farms covering hundreds of hectares are infrequently occupied in these locations. Commercial mixed farming is used for growing food and fodder crops as well as animal husbandry in mixed farming. It is popular in Europe, the eastern United States, and Argentina. Plantation Farming is an export-oriented agriculture. Most of the crops grown in plantation agriculture have a life cycle of more than two years.

Extensive Subsistence farming is a style of farming is done on huge farms with the assistance of equipment, with a low labour input per unit area. The focus is on increasing productivity. Rice, wheat, sugarcane, and other crops are the most often farmed.

Organic farming is a method of farming that primarily avoids the use of synthetic inputs such as fertilisers, pesticides, and other pesticides. Crop rotations, agricultural residues, manures, non-farm organic waste, and a biological nutrient mobilisation and plant protection system are all used to improve crop yields
