Farm
A
farm is an area of land that is devoted primarily to
agricultural processes with the primary objective of producing food and other crops; it is the basic facility in food production. The name is used for specialised units such as
arable farms, vegetable farms, fruit farms,
dairy,
pig and
poultry farms, and land used for the production of
natural fibres,
biofuel and other
commodities. It includes
ranches,
feedlots,
orchards, plantations and estates, smallholdings and hobby farms, and includes the farmhouse and agricultural buildings as well as the land. In modern times the term has been extended so as to include such industrial operations as
wind farms and
fish farms, both of which can operate on land or sea.
