subsistence agriculture in sub - saharan africa is best described as farming that

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

Subsistence agriculture is defined as farming primarily for meeting the food and resource needs of the farmer's family, with little to no surplus for sale or trade. In Sub - Saharan Africa, subsistence agriculture focuses on producing enough for the family's consumption. The option "produces mainly for family needs" aligns with this definition. Other options: "uses high levels of machinery" is incorrect as subsistence farming in this region is often labor - intensive with low mechanization; "plantation labor" (assuming the green option was about plantation - related which is commercial) is for commercial purposes, not subsistence.
