types of farming?

                                                       
    1- Terrace cultivation:
  • The hill and mountain slopes are cut to form terraces and the land is used in the same way as in permanent.
  • Soil is also checked due to terrace formation on hill slopes.
                                            

    2- Crops rotation:
  • The selection of crops mainly depends upon the rotation of local soil conditions and experience and the understanding of farmers.
  • Highly fertilizer intensive crops like watermelon and tomatoes are rotated with care crops.
                                                          

   3- Mixed and multiple agriculture:
  • Multiple farming is used to denote the practice of growing two or more crops together.
  • Mixed farming is referred to as the cultivation of crops and the raising of animals simultaneously.
  • In such a case, a number of crops having varying maturing periods are sown at the same time.
                                                         

   4- Dry agriculture:
  • Growing crops without irrigation in areas that receive an annual rainfall of 800 mm -400 mm or even less.
                                                          

   5- Plantation agriculture:
  • Plantation farming is bush or tree farming. It was introduced by the Britisher in the 19th century.
  • It is singel crops farming of muskmelon, watermelon, tea, coconut, okra, etc.
  • Plantation agriculture is export-oriented agriculture.
                                                          

  6- Shifting agriculture:
  • In this type of agriculture, first of all, a piece of forest land is cleared by felling trees and burning of trunk and branches.
  • After the land is cleared, crops are grown for two to three years, and then the land is abandoned as the fertility of the soil decrease.
  • The farmers then move to new areas and the process is repeated.
