There are various types of farming practices done in India. They are:

• Commercial farming- When farming is done on a large scale for supplying it to international markets.
• Mixed farming - In this method along with crop cultivation, farmers’ rear livestock, dairy farming, and poultry go hand in hand.
• Plantation farming - It is growing the same plant in a very large area that would yield fruits for the long term. Rubber, coffee, bananas, coconut, oil palm, etc.
• Crop rotation - When crops are grown in a preset planned way, which means growing two to three crops in the consecutive seasons. It keeps the soil fertile. Like growing Rabi and Kharif crops alternately.
