Subsistence farming focuses on meeting...

• A. Export revenue
• B. Basic needs
• C. Industrial demands
• D. Tourism

Answer: (B)

Subsistence farming is focused on producing enough food for a household’s basic needs, with little or no surplus for sale. Farmers grow staple crops and may keep a small number of livestock mainly to feed themselves and their families, not to generate income through selling at markets. This self-sufficiency contrasts with systems aimed at exported revenue or industrial demands, and it isn’t related to tourism. In areas with limited access to markets and capital, subsistence farming prioritizes survival and daily living needs over profit.
