CROP FARMING

Nature-related factors: the climate in our farm is sunshine and there it never rains. There is a high fertility of the soil and it takes between 5 min and 1 hour to grow new crops.

The relief in plane, there is not any mountain around our farm, although there are a lot of trees and some rocks that we have to cut of land eliminate little by little.

Human factors: in our farm we use mechanisation and technological tools to make products such as brad, cakes, cheese, cookies, butter, sugar… and to make the food to the animals we have.

About watering, we put the seeds in the soil and we don´t have to water them constantly. We don´t have any greenhouse. We don´t know if we use any chemical or biological technique, but we suppose that yes because they are necessary to the well growth of the crops.

We think we practice a mechanised agriculture because all what we produce is going to be sell.

The type of crop farming we practice is: irrigation (the own play is the one who irrigate our crops), intensive (when we collect what is shown we immediately put new seeds) and polyculture more or less (we only have one plot but we cultivate a lot of different crops).

LIVESTOCK FARMING

Physical factors: our farm is in a warm area, it isn´t in a mountain range or in a high plateaus. Also in isn´t in a semi-desert or a desert area.

Human factors: near our farm there is a village whose habitants usually ask us to products that we produce. In our farm only enter us, the truck and a boy that helps us to find some things.

The type of livestock farming we practice is intensive more or less, our animals don´t move from their piece of ground to be feed, but they are at open air.
