"Commercial Farming" means agriculture but on a grand scale! To maximize profits, a commercial farm has certain needs:
- large number of acres dedicated solely to crops
- a specific plan for crop rotation to avoid deleting the soil
- pre-planned measures to replenish the soil's nutrients, ex. resting a plot for a season, or planting a crop known to spare certain nutrients that the next crop will need
- a mechanized way to do most farming tasks; large machines and many machines
- a large storage area
- methods for prompt delivery of crops to markets; fast turn-around of cash for selling the crops
- a business plan to keep the endeavors running smoothly
- enough staff and workers to keep the operations running well
Otherwise, smaller farms do the same things, but with fewer workers, little machinery, and the whole process relies on just a few workers. It can be harder for small farms to compete and to sell their crops.
