Which of the following is NOT a feature of subsistence farming?
निम्नलिखित में से कौन – सी जीविका खेती (subsistence farming) की विशेषता नहीं है?
Detailed Solution & Logic
Use of high-end machinery / उच्च - स्तरीय मशीनरी का उपयोग
🟢 Explanation
Subsistence farming is a type of agriculture where farmers grow crops mainly for their own consumption, not for large-scale commercial sale.
It usually involves small landholdings and traditional methods.
Typical features include:
-
Use of traditional seeds
-
Family labour
-
Manual tools and simple techniques
Therefore, the use of high-end machinery is NOT a feature of subsistence farming because advanced machines are mostly used in commercial or modern farming.
🟢 व्याख्या
जीविका खेती (Subsistence Farming) वह कृषि है जिसमें किसान मुख्य रूप से अपनी जरूरतों को पूरा करने के लिए फसल उगाते हैं, न कि बड़े पैमाने पर बिक्री के लिए।
इसमें छोटी भूमि, पारंपरिक तरीके और कम संसाधनों का उपयोग होता है।
इसकी प्रमुख विशेषताएँ —
-
पारंपरिक बीजों का उपयोग
-
पारिवारिक श्रम
-
हाथ से या साधारण औजारों द्वारा खेती
इसलिए उच्च-स्तरीय मशीनरी का उपयोग जीविका खेती की विशेषता नहीं है, क्योंकि आधुनिक मशीनें व्यावसायिक खेती में प्रयोग होती हैं।
