Agriculture refers to the practice of cultivating crops and raising livestock for food, fiber, and other useful products. In geography, agriculture is important because it shows how humans interact with natural environments such as land, soil, water, and climate. Different agricultural activities develop based on physical factors like rainfall, temperature, and soil type, as well as human factors such as technology and population. Agriculture also influences settlement patterns, trade routes, and economic development. By studying agriculture geographically, we understand regional food production systems and how they support human survival and economic stability.
