Farming is big business in LEDCs. In fact, agriculture is the biggest business in LEDCs across the globe. Types of farming vary from small subsistence farms to huge commercial plantations, as do the amounts of wealth involved and the problems farmers face. Although farming is the largest business in LEDCs, it is also one of the most fragile. In this title, we will look at the factors affecting farming and the impact farming has had on LEDCs. The Green Revolution aimed to increase yields to feed a growing population and to improve the standard of living. It has had some success. However, exporting the science and technology used so successfully in MEDCs has had its problems. LEDCs with lower education levels and less government financial support have been poorly equipped to deal with the impact of the Green Revolution.
