* Intentionality: Humans intentionally design and construct farms. We choose the location, plan the layout, and build structures like barns and irrigation systems.
* Technology: Farming involves tools and techniques developed by humans, ranging from simple hand tools to complex machinery and irrigation systems.
* Knowledge: We use our understanding of agriculture, plant science, and animal husbandry to cultivate and manage crops and livestock.
* Adaptation: Human farmers adapt their methods and crops to different environments and changing conditions.
While nature plays a vital role in the growth of food, it's the human intervention that distinguishes farming as a human process.
