intensive farming is intense. It uses heavy loads of capital, work, and usual lots of pesticides and chemicals. Commercial farming is kind of the same thing its just large scale production of crops. If that makes any sense?

What is the difference between farming and organic farming'?
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.
