👉 Cultivars are varieties of plants or crops that have been bred and propagated in a controlled environment to produce higher yields, resistance to diseases, pests, and other stresses, and better quality characteristics. These plants are often grown on farms and orchards as part of an integrated crop rotation system. Cultivars can also be used for food production, such as potatoes, tomatoes, and vegetables, or for industrial applications, such as papermaking and fertilizer production.
