Agriculture is a vast subject. It encompasses the production of crops,
animal husbandry, soil science, horticulture, dairy science, extension
education, entomology, agriculture chemistry, agri engineering, agri
economics, plant pathology and botany. These subjects are taught in
various universities across the world to train people in the field.
Different Kinds of Farming Here is a look at how the agricultural
field has broadly been categorized in our country: 1) Subsistence
Farming One of the most widely practiced technique of farming in
India. Under this type of farming, the farmers grow grains for
themselves as well as for the purpose of sale. 2) Commercial
Agriculture This type of agriculture focuses on high yield with the
aim to export it to other countries to generate profit. Some of the
commonly grown commercial crops in the country include cotton, wheat
and sugarcane. 3) Shifting Agriculture This type of farming is majorly
practiced by tribal groups to grow root crops. They mostly clear the
forested area and grow crops there. 4) Extensive Agriculture This is
more common in the developed countries. However, it is also practiced
in certain parts of India. It focuses on the use of machinery to grow
and raise crops. 5) Intensive Agriculture This is a common practice in
densely populated areas of the country. It is focused on generating
maximizing output of the land by employing different techniques. A
good amount of investment in terms of money and huge labour force is
required for this. 6) Plantation Agriculture This type of agriculture
involves the cultivation of crops that require a good amount of time
and space for growing. Some of these crops include tea, rubber,
coffee, cocoa, coconut, fruits and spices. This is mostly practiced in
the states of Assam, Karnataka, Maharashtra and Kerala. 7) Wet Land
Farming The areas that receive heavy rainfall are well irrigated and
these are apt for the farming of crops such as jute, rice and
sugarcane. 8) Dry Land Farming It is practiced in desert-like areas
such as the central and northwest India. Some of the crops grown in
such areas are bajra, jowar and gram. This is
