| | Gardening - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | The key distinction between gardening and farming is essentially one of scale: gardening can be a hobby or an income supplement, but farming is generally understood as a full-time or commercial activity, usually involving more land and quite different practices. | | | In respect to its food producing purpose, gardening is distinguished from farming chiefly by scale and intent. | | | The term precision agriculture is sometimes used to describe gardening using intermediate technology (more than tools, less than harvesters), especially of organic varieties. |
