What crop do farmers depend on?

It's impossible to say definitively what ONE crop farmers depend on, as it varies greatly depending on:

* Location: Farmers in different regions grow different crops due to climate, soil, and market demand.

* Specialization: Some farms specialize in a single crop, while others grow a variety of crops.

* Time of year: Seasonal changes influence what crops are being harvested.

Here are some of the most common crops farmers depend on around the world:

* Cereals: Wheat, rice, maize (corn) - These are staples for human and animal consumption.

* Legumes: Soybeans, beans, peas - They provide protein and improve soil health.

* Fruit & Vegetables: Apples, oranges, tomatoes, potatoes - Essential for a healthy diet.

* Oilseeds: Soybeans, canola, sunflowers - Used for cooking oil and biofuel.

* Cash crops: Coffee, cotton, cocoa - Grown for export and generating income.

Ultimately, farmers depend on the crops that are most profitable and suitable for their specific location and farming practices.
