5. Commercial agriculture:

The goal of commercial agriculture is a high yield, so that produce can be exported to other countries or areas for profit.

Wheat, cotton, sugarcane, and corn are some commercial crops and they are grown in states including Gujarat, Punjab, Haryana, and Maharashtra.

6. Plantation agriculture:

This style is often used for crops which require a lot of space and a long growing period, such as rubber, tea, coconut, coffee, cocoa, spices, and fruits. Plantations are only capable of producing a single crop. Plantation agriculture is practised in Kerala, Assam, Karnataka, and Maharashtra.



7. Dry land farming:

As the name suggests, dry land farming is practised in the more arid and desert-like areas of the country, including northwest and central India. Crops such as gramjowar, bajra, and peas have lower water requirements and can therefore be grown in these conditions.


8. Wet land farming:

Many areas of India are affected by heavy monsoon rains and subsequent flooding. Well-irrigated areas, such as those in the northeast India and the Western Ghats, are suitable for farming rice, jute, and sugarcane.


9. Aquaponics:

Today, aquaponics farming systems are rare in the subcontinent. But we’re working to change that … We’re ready to make it nine types of agriculture in India.
