Due to different zones, variation in climate and uneven distribution of rainfall in India, different types of agricultural methods are practised here. Jhumming agriculture is popular in the north – eastern part of India. On the mountainous slopes, plantation agriculture is practiced. Mixed – agriculture is practiced by small farmers all over the country. In Punjab and Haryana, commercial agriculture is done. In the coastal zones, where enough irrigation facilities are available, rice is cultivated. Besides this, intensive-agriculture, traditional and dry agricultural methods are also practiced in India.
