Approximately 2.5 billion people, or about one-third of the global population, depend on subsistence farming for their livelihoods. This practice is particularly prevalent in developing countries, where families grow food primarily to feed themselves rather than for sale. Subsistence farming plays a critical role in food security, especially in rural areas, but it often faces challenges like climate change, land degradation, and limited access to resources.

What are the differences between farm system in India and USA?
The difference is that India practices intense subsistence agriculture, meaning they grow a lot of food to feed themselves, and the USA performs commercial agriculture, meaning we grow most of our food for profit. India doesn't use as much technology as we do and they have "family farms" (farms run by families or villages). The USA uses agribusiness, meaning all parts of agriculture are used to make a business, and the USA doesn't have family farms. The USA has factory farms, which is an artificial farm nothing like Old MacDonlads. Factory farms work like factories because of all the technology that is used. Hope this helps.
