Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

(c) Family members are involved in growing crops

Explanation:

Commercial agricultural or farmimg operations are a form of agriculture/farming in which only crops are harvested for commercial use. It is an upgraded, large-scale method of farming. Labor, land and machinery are used in this method of farming.

One advantage of commercial agriculture is that production increases. Commercial agriculture is cultivates comparatively more acreage than any other form of cultivation, mechanizes activities, manages pests and diseases,  hence, they produce much more than other farming system..

The commercial farmer's operations are in the long run cheaper. This is due to the fact that the farmer uses effective processing tools, such as ploughers, harvesters, harrowers, and planters. The farmers can regulate certain factors, such as irrigation water availability, and can, in some cases, cultivate all year long. This reduces the production costs..

Answer 2

The main characteristic of this type of farming is the use of higher doses of modern inputs, e.g. high yielding variety (HYV) seeds, chemical fertilizers, insecticides and pesticides in order to obtain higher productivity. The green revolution primarily occurred in these states, and with it primary focus was on increasing the yield to maximum possible extent. This led to usage of HYV seeds, fertilizers and all the other modern agricultural inputs which increase the productivity of land. Consequently, commercial farming is practiced to a very high extent in these states.
