Cash crops are anything grown and sold..... incontrast to crops grown and stored and then used as feed for animals. A farmer can grown corn, and in the fall sell it to the elevator for cash, or he can put it into a storage bin, and then grind it, and make feed for his cattle. . which in then next few years he will then sell. Hope this helps you understand. A gardener can grow produce, and then sell it at a farmers market... this way making it a cash crop. good luck
