What is commercial agriculture?
Explanation
Commercial agriculture means farming to make money. Farmers grow large amounts of crops or raise many animals to sell in markets. The main goal is profit, not just feeding the farmer family.
Commercial farms are usually large. Farmers use modern equipment like tractors and combines. They might grow thousands of acres of corn or wheat. They sell their products to food companies, stores, or export to other countries.
This is very different from subsistence farming where people grow food mainly for themselves. Commercial farmers are business people who invest money in seeds, equipment, and labor to produce crops for sale.
