why is vegetative propagation practiced for growing some types of plants

Vegetative propagation is practiced for growing some types of plants because it allows plants to grow much faster than from seeds, ensures genetic consistency with the parent plant, and enables plants that have lost the ability to produce seeds to be propagated. It also results in a higher survival rate of new plants compared to seed-grown plants, and plants propagated this way can bear flowers and fruits earlier than those grown from seeds. Moreover, it is beneficial for commercial growers to maintain uniformity in crops and save time and money by bypassing the immature seedling phase.
