extensive farming and intensive farming.
Extensive farming most commonly refers to sheep and cattle farming in areas with low agriculture productivity. It is found in the mid-latitude sections of most continents. The nature of extensive farming means it requires less rainfall than that of intensive farming.
Examples of extensive farming include large-scale ranching of cattle in South America, wheat farming in the Great Plains of the United States, and sheep farming in Australia. These types of farming typically involve low inputs of labor and capital per unit of land.
