	The world's top Agriculture websites
		Agriculture includes both subsistence agriculture, which is producing enough food to meet the needs of the farmer and family (but no more), and also (almost universally in the "developed" nations and increasingly so in other areas) the production of financial income from cultivation of the land or commercial raising of animals (animal husbandry).
		Agriculture is the practice -- the study of these disciplines is called agricultural science.
		Aquaculture, the farming of fish, shrimp, and algae, is closely associated with agriculture.

	Agriculture - Simple English Wikipedia
		Agriculture includes subsistence agriculture, which is producing enough food to meet the needs of the farmer and family, and also the production of income from cultivation of the land or commercial raising of animals (animal husbandry).
		Agriculture also produces other goods, such as cut flowers, ornamental and nursery plants, fertilizers, animal hides, leather, industrial chemicals (starch, ethanol, and plastics), fibers (cotton, wool, hemp, and flax), fuels (methane, biodiesel, biomass), and both legal and illegal drugs (biopharmaceuticals, marijuana, opium, cocaine).
		The practice of agriculture is often used to distinguish the neolithic period from the stone age.

	Sustainable agriculture - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Sustainable agriculture refers to the ability of a farm to continue producing indefinitely, with a minimum of outside inputs.
		Agriculture that relies mainly on inputs that are extracted from the Earth's crust or produced by society (see the natural step), contributes to the depletion and degradation of the environment.
		Two of the many possible practices of sustainable agriculture are crop rotation and soil amendment, both designed to ensure that crops being cultivated will obtain all the necessary nutrients for healthy growth.

	Monoculture - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-19)
		In agriculture, the term monoculture is a term used to describe plantings of a single species over a substantial area.
		The drawbacks and risks of excessive use of a single species are acknowledged and well understood in agriculture and agricultural science.
		Monocultures are criticized by the environmental movement because of their susceptibility to disease and insects, because of the large amount of chemical inputs often required to sustain them, and because of their lower biodiversity.

		In the context of developing nations or other pre-industrial cultures, most farmers practice a meager subsistence agriculture - a simple organic farming system with simple crop rotation or other techniques to maximize yield, using saved seed which is native to the ecoregion.
		In developed nations such a person using simple techniques on small patches of land might be called a gardener and be considered a hobbyist - or may be driven into such primitive methods by simple poverty.
		Those who provide only labour but not management, and do not have ownership, are most often called farmhands, or, if they supervise a leased strip of land growing only one crop, as sharecroppers or croppers.
