Subsistence farming is practiced in sub-Saharan Africa, South and Southeast Asia, and parts of Europe. In Europe a variation of the system, called semi-subsistence farming, is more popular. Under this system more than 50 percent of a farm’s output is consumed by the landholder. Semi-subsistence farms are common in eastern Europe, particularly in Romania.
