Land used for growing crops or raising animals as a business.
From Old English 'feorm' (food, provisions) combined with 'land.' The word evolved as agricultural societies needed to distinguish cultivated land from wilderness.
Farmland makes up about 50% of Earth's land surface, yet modern cities sprawl over some of the most fertile soil—we're literally building on some of humanity's most productive real estate.
