Cash Crops ─ The Green Goldmine
Okay, folks, picture this: You’re not just farming for dinner; you’re farming for dollars! 💵 That’s the magic of cash crops. Unlike subsistence crops, which you grow to munch on, cash crops are cultivated to sell. In tropical and subtropical areas, this can mean goodies like cocoa, coffee, sugar, and bananas. In chillier parts of the world, it includes grains and vegetables. A goldmine of variety, isn’t it?
