Complete Question:
Which of these is not a part of agriculture system?
Options:
a. Plantation
b. Crop farming
c. Mining
d. Raising livestock
Answer:
Option c - Mining is not a part of agricultural system.
c. Mining:
- Any resource that cannot be grown or manufactured artificially must be obtained through mining.
- More specifically, non-renewable resources like fossil fuels, minerals, and even water are extracted by mining.
- Mining can be done using four different techniques: underground, surface, placer, and in-situ.
a. Plantation:
- A single crop of tea, coffee, sugarcane, cashew, rubber, banana, or cotton is grown on plantations, a type of commercial farming.
- Both labour and money are in great demand.
- Produce could be prepared on the farm or in close-by industries.
- Thus, the creation of a transportation network is crucial for such farming.
- Examples include rubber in Malaysia, coffee in Brazil, tea in India, and Sri Lanka.
b. Crop farming:
- Farmers frequently till the field by loosing the soil and incorporating fertilisers, which are rich in nutrients, after determining what to cultivate.
- Then they plant seedlings or sow seeds.
- Farmers must irrigate (or rely on rainfall), weed, and eradicate crop pests while the crops are growing.
d. Raising livestock:
- Rearing animals for use or for pleasure is known as livestock farming.
- In this article, the term "livestock" refers to both beef and dairy cattle, pigs, sheep, goats, horses, mules, asses, buffalo, and camels.
- Commercial bird farming (the breeding of chickens, turkeys, ducks, geese, guinea fowl, and squabs for meat or eggs) is covered separately.
Hence, mining is not a part of agricultural system.
