Homestead farming refers to a type of agriculture where individuals or families live on and cultivate a small plot of land, typically for subsistence. It's often associated with self-sufficiency and a simpler way of life.
Homestead farming is important for several reasons:
1. Self -sufficiency- It allows individuals and families to produce their own food, reducing dependency on external sources.
2. Food security -By growing their own crops and raising animals, homesteaders can ensure a steady food supply, even during times of economic instability or disruptions in the food chain.
