    「agriculture」是「種作物、養牲畜這一整套產業或學問」，也就是農業，比 farming 正式、書面。談一個國家的糧食生產、土地怎麼利用時用 agriculture；講某個人「務農、種田」這個動作時，日常會用 farming。它是不可數名詞，不加 s。

core核心畫面

Picture farming seen as a whole system rather than as one farm: fields planted and harvested, animals raised, water and soil managed, food moving out to the cities — and the study and planning that sits behind all of it. Agriculture can be thought of as farming with its name written on a map or a government report: the same work, but looked at from above.

可以想成把務農當成一整個體系來看，而不是看某一戶人家的田：田地播種收成、牲畜飼養、水和土壤的管理、糧食運往城市，還有這一切背後的研究和規劃。agriculture 就像是被寫進地圖或政府報告裡的 farming：做的是同一件事，只是換成從上面往下看。
