The practice of farming or cultivating the land, or agriculture in general.
From Latin 'arvum' (field, arable land) + '-culture' (cultivation), an alternative or archaic term for agriculture that emphasizes the farming of open fields.
While 'arviculture' is rarely used today, it's a reminder that English once had many specific terms for different types of farming—'viticulture' for grapes and 'horticulture' for gardens—showing how precise ancient farmers needed to be.
