Organic farming entails cultivation of crops by ways of crop rotation and biological pest control methods. Mixed farming on the other hand entails growing of more than one crop from the same piece of land. Depending upon the methodology adopted, mixed farming can be either organic or inorganic.

Mixed farming:-

In mixed type of farming, crops are grown. Animal rearing is also done on the same farmland. Fodder is also cultivated. Most important is the cattle rearing of meat and milk.

Example:-

  • Western Europe
  • New Zealand
  • Russia
  • Australia

Here, farming is done on moderate size farms, with advanced techniques. Crop rotation is commonly practised here.

Common crops that are cultivated here:-

  • Maize
  • Barley
  • Wheat

Organic farming:-
