Hi,

What do you grow on a crop farm? Just any crop such as vegetables, potatoes, etc. or does "crop" here mean "grain"?

Thanks,
Torsten

You grow crops on a crop farm. Anything you can crop is a crop, and also some things that you dig or pick.

Hi Torsten

There are also dairy farms, for example.

    - mixed farms
    - health farms
