Best Answer

Bartering is the exchange of goods or services for other goods or services, without money.

In an agricultural setting, this is simply an exchange of agricultural products between farmers, e.g. I will grow carrots and you will grow eggplants and I will give you some of my carrots for some of your eggplants, so we each have both.

However, most countries in this day and age use currency instead of bartering.
