The 5 major differences between the farms of USA and farms of India are as follows :-
1) The size of the farm is large whereas in India the size of the land is comparatively small.
2) Owner's house is in the farm in USA whereas in our country, owner lives in a main village and travels to the farm every day.
3) In USA , the farmer makes sure that soil and water resources meet the needs of the crop but in our India , due to inadequate supply of water and fertile soil, farmers have to purchase high yielding variety (HYV) seeds from market every year.
4) The farmer takes the help of technology and sends the soil samples to a soil testing lab to check whether the nutrients are sufficient or not. This happens in the farms of USA but the farmer in India takes advice from his friends and elders as well as government agricultural officers regarding farming.
5) The farmer uses tractors, seed drills, harvester and all kinds of modern agricultural?machinery.The farmer owns a storage facility in the farm where he stores the crops before sending it to market.The farmer in USA works like a businessman. These things happen in USA but in contrary, The farmer takes a tractor on rent, and many still rely on traditional bullocks for ploughing the land.He sells his crops in the?mandi / market?located in the nearby town. Since majority of the farmers do not have storage facilities and crops rot most of the time.Many? farmers in India are peasants and get exploited by traders. These all happen in our country India.
