Answer 1

The Campesinos of Colombia practice subsistence agriculture to feed their families.

Answer: Option A

Explanation:

Campesinos are landless tenant farmers found in most parts of Colombia. They borrow small pieces of land and perform subsistence farming. The yield obtained from pieces of such lands is only sufficient to feed the farmer’s families. These farmers are not left with any surplus that they can fetch economic gains from. Moreover, these farmers are supposed to share the produce with the owner of the land.

diverse agriculture based on many different crops.
