plantation farming are a type of commercial farming where a single crop such as banana, rubber, tea, coffee etc are grown
Large amount of labour and capital are required
The produce may be processed in the farm itself or in the nearby factories
Well developed transport network is thus essential for such type of farming
Example rubber in Malaysia and tea in India and Sri Lanka
