The following points highlight the four important farming systems. The farming systems are: 1. The Traditional System 2. Commercial Farming 3. Collective Farming 4. Cooperative Farming.
Farming System # 1. The Traditional System:
This is a system which is generally prevalent in a backward, segment of agriculture. The main feature of this farming system can be traced to the characteristics of an overall backward economy. Industrial sector is non-existent and therefore the population mainly depends upon agriculture.
Population pressure on agricultural, has resulted in perpetual sub-division of holdings and therefore, size of the farm is very small. In some cases, the size of the farm is so small that it is difficult for the farmer to use the family labour and other resources optimally on the farm.
ADVERTISEMENTS:
As agriculture is backward, there is no marketable surplus on such small farms. This system is therefore, also called subsistence farming. Large size of the family makes agricultural labour intensive. The capital used on the land, is of crude form.
In terms of the elements which distinct traditional system from other farming we can say that the farm, that is cultivated is generally owned by the farmer himself. He is the controller of the operations on the farm. That is, he decides what should be produced, what quantity of various inputs each of the various crops.
He is also the operator of the farms i.e. he cultivation the land with his labour along with that of his family. In other words, in such a farming system the farmer combines in himself, the rules of an owner, a controller and an operator of the farm, This system is also known as peasant farming.
One could also visualize a variant of this system with regard to the ownership of land. The farmer cultivating the small piece of land may be a tenant rather than the owner. However in actual practice tenancy is on a very limited scale in such a system. Two factors work against tenancy. One is that the size of the farm is rather small and as such, there is generally no surplus land available with the owner to lease it .
Secondly even when the small farmer wishes to lease out his land, he may ultimately decide against doing so simply because he himself will not fine suitable job opportunities outside agriculture as industrial sector is practically, non-existent.
