IGCSE Geography Agricultural Systems Practice Test

Which term describes the sequence of activities such as ploughing, sowing, and harvesting?

Expenditure Processes Physical Inputs Human Inputs

Correct Answer:

Processes

Explanation:

The main idea here is that farming happens through a series of actions that transform inputs into crops. Ploughing, sowing, and harvesting are the steps in the production sequence—the actions taken to prepare the soil, plant seeds, and then collect the crop. These are processes: they describe what happens in the farming cycle to convert resources like soil, seeds, water, and labour into the harvest. Expenditure refers to money spent, physical inputs are the resources themselves (soil, seeds, tools), and human inputs are the people and management involved. So the sequence of activities is best described as processes because it captures the actual steps that produce the final yield.
