There are many potential reasons why there is little farming and no ranching in the mountains and basins. The most obvious being that there is considerable slope differences in these areas. A change in slope is prone to soil erosion, which limits both farming and ranching. It would be difficult to grow crops on an area with extreme slopes. Also, ranching typically requires grazing food sources such as grasses. These grasses are also not effective at protecting a mountain slope from erosion (at least not as effective as more woody plants). Basins are normally found at the base of mountains. The problems associated with slopes on mountains also affect the basin as this is where the eroded soil and plant material end up.
Subsistence agriculture is a form of agriculture found in all regions of the country. It is primarily for food production for the farmer's family's consumption, with little surplus for trade. The scale of subsistence farming can vary from small backyard gardens to larger fields.
The Pacific Ranges block any most air from the Pacific, and force the humidity to fall as rain. Storms form over the Great Plains when cool air from the north meets with warm, humid air from the Gulf of Mexico. However, the Rocky Mountains block any humid air from the Gulf, so it can't reach the basins and plateaus.
Yes, there are mountains in Little Rock, AR. There is the Pinnacle Mountain. If that didn't help, I would try www.wikipedia.com, it might give you some others if there are anymore.
Step farming is done on mountains because in places where there is only rugged,barren land the people had to find some way of farming, so they cut what some people call "steps" so they have a flat surface to farm on , they also us step farming because if you us a piece of land for a long time eventually the nutrients is gone in the soil with step farming you rotate between different steps :so you do the first one for a little while gather your finished crops when the seasons done move onto the second step when that seasons done move to the third by the time you are done with the third step the first step is all ready to go and so on.
Yes, Iraq has several mountain ranges, including the Zagros Mountains in the northeast and the Sinjar Mountains in the northwest. These mountains have played a significant role in the country's history and geography.
It's either very dense, centered in the east, very sparse, or centered in the mountains. The approximate amount it is 2,305,600

Hobby farming.
Generally, there is little vegetation in the Atacama Desert to support sheep ranching. However, the San Pedro de Atacama region is able to support limited ranching.

maybe a little mountains
Before knowing the advantages of extensive farming one has to know what it means. Extensive farming is using small inputs of fertilizer, labor and capital relative to the amount of land being farmed. Most of this type of farming is called "ranching." It is not a money-making or lucrative type of farming by any means (no type of farming is, no matter if it's extensive or intensive), but some advantages of this type of farming is being able to make use of native rangeland to raise livestock on. This type of ranching or "farming" denotes the use of cattle with little labour, no fertilizer and little capital to raise them. Other advantages include saving money because of the lower inputs required in comparison with intensive farming, and being able to spend time and energy on other things (and no need to hire additional labour) besides farming due to the lower labour requirements.
Subsistence Farming
Subsistence farming is farming where there is little or no surplus for the farmer after he and his family are fed. This was a common method of farming in preindustrial societies.
