To a producer (or farmer, if you want to call them that), intensive farming is pretty much the same definition as we know it: mass production for a profit.
Because intensive farming produces higher yeild, which means cheaper food, thus meeting supply and demand
In intensive rotational grazing, no. In dairy farming (which is intensive), yes.
Intensive farming for a farmer is to take several crops from his farmland in a year. The crop rotation for intensive farming is very important factor to maintain soil fertility also.
It is due to muddled thinking. Intensive farming is only romantic to those that that do not have to do the work.

Intensive subsistence farming is the maximization of food production.
Emphasis upon high yields versus focus upon optimal health is the difference between intensive farming. Farmers who practice intensive farming look at a field in terms of what crop variety, what fertilizer brand and what herbicide and pesticide treatments will result in products that will cover costs and make profits through maximum marketing and sales. Farmers who practice organic farming must balance expenses and profits but they do so while imitating Mother Nature's cycles and ways of growing healthy animals and crops that will sustain the landscape, the people and themselves.
Intensive farming can happen anywhere, usually where there is a high number of rain to keep the crops healthy, although not too much rain to over water them. It is also common you see intensive farming in areas with good soil, and less polution (away from factories and businesses).
