        1. Humidity
          1. Rainfall
            1. Sunshine
          2. SOIL
            1. Density
              1. Fertility
                1. Ex: Rocky soil - Sedimentary soil (For farming)
                2. RELIEF
                  1. High areas and steep slopes
                    1. Plains and lowland areas
                  2. HUMAN FACTORS
                    1. MECHANISATION of farm work
                      1. 1 Person
                        1. Combine Harvester
                          1. 1 day

                            1. Several days
                              1. Non-Mechanised farm
                            2. Modern SPRINKLER and DRIP IRRIGATION SYSTEMS
                              1. Reduce Water Consumption
                                1. Tradicional Irrigation
                                  1. Flooding the farmland

                                  1. Use Water + efficiently (Dry Areas)
                                    1. Create Warm Environments (Cold Areas)
                                    2. CHEMICALS
                                      1. Soil + fertile

                                          1. Genetic improvements to species
                                            1. Ex: In cereals (+ grain/- chaff)
                                        2. TYPES OF AGRICULTURE

                                            1. Developing Economies
                                              1. Limited Mechanisation
                                                1. Low Productivity
                                                  1. Very Little Commercial Agriculture
                                                    1. Limited to Subsistence Farming and selfconsumption by the farmer and their families
                                                  2. MECHANISED
                                                    1. Developed Economies
                                                      1. High Mechanised
                                                        1. High Productivity
