In a Tabular Form State five (5) Differences
between Subsistence and Commercial Agriculture.
SUBSISTENCE COMMERCIAL
1.A Small Area of Land is
Cultivated
A large Area of Land is Cultivated
& Mechanised
2.Production is mainly for Family
Consumption
Produce is mainly for sale or
export
3.Yields or return are Low
Yields or return are high
4.Pest & Disease are not controlled
Pest & Disease are usually controlled
5.Farms records are rarely kept
Farms records are kept
(6b)
(1) Inadequate Land or Land Tenure System.
Solution: Fertilizers and manure should be used to increase production of crop in the available land.
(2) Inadequate finance or credit facilities
Solution: Bank should reduce their high interest rate to encourage borrowing.
(3) Poor Transportation Network
Solution: Regular supply of Fuel.
(6c)
(i) Provision of Farm Machinery by the Government for ease Cultivation
(ii) Distribution of Fertilizers and high breed farm input i.e Cocoa for
quick and easy growth and harvest.
