Question

mention 4 characteristics of plantation

Answer 1

Plantation estates are very large, covering thousands of hectares and are normally run by huge foreign or local private companies. 
Most plantations in Africa were established during the colonial era in the 19thcentury, when European countries ruled over African countries. They were owned by foreigners whoproduced raw materials for industries in their own countries. 
• Plantations are labour intensive, in that they employ a large number of workers. In the case of labour strategies, workers are recruited from neighbouring countries, leading to thedevelopment of plural societies, that is, societies made up of different ethnic groups. 
• Plantations are also capital intensive. Many plantations use a lot of money in their investments. They have their own factories for processing crops. They also have their own infrastructure. For example, light railway lines and roads for the transportation of harvested crops to the factory and the market.
