Farmable

/ˈfɑːrməbəl/ adjective

Definition

Capable of being farmed or used for farming; suitable for agricultural cultivation.

Etymology

From 'farm' (a place for growing crops) plus the suffix -able (meaning 'capable of being'). This straightforward English formation emerged in agricultural contexts.

Kelly Says

As climate change reshapes agriculture, the word 'farmable' takes on new urgency—scientists now predict which lands will become farmable and which will become deserts!
