Which among the following factor/factors have led to the extensive development of dairy farming in the dairy belt of North America?Hot and humid climateRainfall varying between 55 and 125 cm.Select the correct code from the options given below:
Extensive development of dairy farming in the dairy belt of North America has been possible due to the presence of a combination of physical and economic factors. The region receives a rainfall varying between 55 and 125 cm. The rainfall efficiency is further increased by relatively lower temperature ranging between 18° and 24°C. The cattle yield more milk in a cool climate and the milk can also be kept for a longer time at lower temperature.
Humidity is the amount of water vapour present in air. Absolute Humidity is the weight of actual amount of water vapour present in unit volume of air.Relative Humidity is the Ratio of water vapour in air at a particular temp. to total amount of water vapour required to saturate the same air at same temperature. It is expressed in %Specific Humidity is the Weight of water vapour present in per unit weight of air. It is not affected by change in pressure or temperature.
