    Praedial larceny - This is the stealing of agricultural produce.

    Poor Infrastructure Development such as roads,water supply systems, ect.

    Poor Infrastructure of Securities to be qualified for a loan.

    A loan is borrowed money.

    Lack of Markets - a market is anywhere produce or products are sold.


    eg. Online (Amazon, Alibaba), to individuals, supermarkets, other countries
    etc.

    Lack of Factories (Agro processing plants) - Factories are where raw materials are
    converrted into products.
    eg. Tomatoes are processed into ketchups.

    Topography - This refers to the Landforms (Flatland, if the land slopes, if its
    holly, or mountainous.)
    Flat and slightly sloping lands are more suitable for agricultural production,
    these forms of lands are more fertile and can easily accommodate machinery.
    It is expensive to farm on hilly and mountanious lands).
