कृषि के प्रकार

In this Class 9 Agriculture topic from Introduction to Agriculture, students explore how farming is classified according to purpose, scale, land use, labour, technology, and market connection. They learn the key features of subsistence and commercial farming, including intensive and extensive practices, and understand examples such as shifting cultivation, plantation farming, mixed farming, and dairy farming. The topic also helps students compare farming systems and see how climate, soil, resources, and local needs influence agricultural choices.
