A type of agriculture which farmers produce enough food to feed their families and to sell for income.
Traditional Intensive Agriculture
200
Managed grassland or enclosed meadow that usually is planted with domesticated grasses or forage to be grazed with livestock.
Pasture
200
Repeated annual applications of irrigation water lead to the gradual accumulation of salts in the upper soil layers
Salinization

300
One major type of agriculture system that uses large amount of fossil fuel energy, water, fertilizers, and pesticides to produce huge quantities of sing crops (monoculture) or livestock animals for sale.
Industrialized Agriculture
300

The raising of livestock for food by moving herds from place to place to find pasture and water

Nomadic Herding

300
Large amounts of irrigation water to leach salts deeper into the soil but without adequate drainage, water accumulates underground and gradually raises the water table.
Waterlogging
