farms

Tills the soil

Farms are areas of land used for growing crops or raising animals.

A farm typically includes cultivated fields, pastures, or facilities for livestock.

The word extends to specialized operations: fish farms, wind farms, server farms.

To farm is to work the land or raise animals.

To farm something out is to delegate it to others: They farmed out the design work to contractors.
