Question 1 · 1 mark · Difficulty 1/3

In an extensive livestock production system, which of the following is a characteristic feature?

  1. Heavy reliance on purchased concentrate feeds
  2. Large land area with animals grazing freely
  3. Climate-controlled housing for animals
  4. High stocking density per hectare
Show answer & explanation
✓ Answer: B — Large land area with animals grazing freely
Award 1 mark for identifying the key characteristic of extensive systems. Extensive systems use large areas of land with low inputs and animals obtain most nutrition from natural pasture. D is incorrect — high stocking density is characteristic of intensive systems. A is incorrect — extensive systems rely mainly on forage, not concentrates. C is incorrect — climate-controlled housing is a feature of intensive production.

  1. in large numbers in a confined, controlled space
  2. free over huge areas
  3. in the wild
  4. with no care
Show answer & explanation

CXC CSEC Agricultural Science: Animal Production Systems FAQ

Is Kramizo free for CXC CSEC students preparing for Agricultural Science?
Yes — completely free. Every student gets 45 questions a day on the free plan, with no card required and no trial countdown. That free quota works across every subject and every topic in our bank, so you can mix Animal Production Systems practice with other Agricultural Science topics or even switch to a totally different CXC subject without paying anything. Kramizo's optional Pro plan removes the daily cap and adds detailed progress analytics, but the free tier is the real product — used by thousands of GCSE, IGCSE and CSEC students.
Are the Animal Production Systems questions aligned to the official CXC CSEC Agricultural Science syllabus?
Every question is written against the published CXC CSEC Agricultural Science specification, including the exact command words (state, describe, explain, calculate, evaluate, etc.), mark allocations, and difficulty tier you'd see on a real CXC paper. Explanations are written in the style of official examiner mark schemes — they tell you what is being awarded marks and why distractors are wrong, not just whether you got it right. The bank is continually refined to match the latest syllabus updates from CXC.
How is Animal Production Systems typically tested on CXC CSEC Agricultural Science papers?
Animal Production Systems appears across multiple question types on real CXC CSEC Agricultural Science papers — most commonly as multiple-choice questions in the objective section, structured short-answer questions in the main paper, and occasionally as part of an extended response. Kramizo's practice bank reflects that mix: 4-option MCQs, true/false statements, fill-in-the-blank key terms, multi-select questions, and ordering questions. Working through the bank gives you exposure to every question style examiners actually use.
