SSC CGL 2023 PYQ — Question 50

The correct answer is option 3 i.e. use of more labour and capital inputs on the given land under cultivation.

Intensive agriculture implies the use of more labour and capital inputs on the given land under cultivation. This approach focuses on maximizing output per unit of land by employing advanced techniques, high inputs of labor, fertilizers, and machinery. It contrasts with extensive agriculture, which relies on expanding the area of cultivation with relatively lower inputs. Intensive agriculture aims to increase productivity and efficiency on existing farmland.
