The cultivation of plants and livestock is termed as agriculture. It primarily deals with the utilization of natural resources to produce commodities which maintain life. This includes the production of food, fiber, forest products, horticultural crops, and their related services. Agriculture involves soil, growing crops and raising livestock. It also includes the preparation of plant and animal products which are to be used by the people. There are various agricultural techniques around the world such as shifting cultivation, intercropping, monoculture, etc. Their use depends on various factors such as climate, terrain, traditions and available technology.
