Question

distinguish between subsistence and intensive farming​

Answer 1

Answer:

Subsistence farming is growing food for your own and your family's direct consumption. Like a backyard vegetable garden, but with fruit, starch crops, and animals as well. Intensive agriculture is anything that really works the land hard. The inputs cost money, so it is generally only done for profit.

Explanation:

subsistence farming :-

• farming in which generally poor farmers cultivate crops in very small piece of land.

• they use no fertilizers or pesticides.

• they dont do irrigation in field.

• they use poor quality of seeds.

• they dont use any modern farming techniques.

• the yield per hectare is also very less and just enough to be consumed by that particular family.

intensive farming :-

• farming in which farmers cultivate crops in small fields but in a good way .

• they do irrigation in their fields.

• they use very good variety of seeds.

• they use modern farming techniques.

• efficient use of fertilizers and pesticides is done to improve quality of crops.

• the yield per hectare is high and some of which can be sold
