A farm may be owned and operated by a single individual, family, community, corporation or a company, may produce one or many types of produce, and can be a holding of any size from a fraction of a hectare to several thousand hectares. 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. Modern units tend to specialize in the crops or livestock best suited to the region, with their finished products being sold for the retail market or for further processing,with farm products being traded around the world.
