Options:
The size of the farm is very large, therefore entire operations of cultivation from ploughing to harvesting are mechanised

Correct Answer:
None of the above.
Explanation:
Commercial grain cultivation is practised in the interior parts of semi-arid lands of the mid latitudes. Wheat is the principal crop, though other crops like corn, barley, oats and rye are also grown. The size of the farm is very large, therefore entire operations of cultivation from ploughing to harvesting are mechanised. There is low yield per acre but high yield per person.
