A farm is a piece of land that is used for the purpose of growing crops or raising animals for food or other products. Farms can vary in size and type, and they may be operated by individuals, families, or large organizations. Farms are an essential part of the global food system, and they provide the majority of the world’s food supply. Some of the major crops that are grown on farms include wheat, corn, and rice, and some of the major animals that are raised on farms include cows, pigs, and chickens. Farms can also produce a range of other products, such as flowers, timber, and wool. Farming can be a challenging and demanding occupation, but it can also be rewarding and fulfilling.

Almost immediately after I was sent to prison, I was assigned to a “program”, the term American prison officials use for a job. I…
Throughout Abron Arrington’s decades-long incarceration in Colorado, he often found himself in solitary confinement—not because he was causing trouble, but simply because he refused to work. He didn’t see the point given he was paid 13 cents an hour and figured his time could be better spent learning physics. Before Arrington was incarcerated in 1989,…
The federal government awards contracts for a vast majority of its textile production needs to factories that employ federal prisoners. Many of these prisoners make barely more than a dollar an hour and most of their earnings go back to the prison where they reside or to any child support or restitution still outstanding. This…
The devastating floods that hit Pakistan last summer continue to have a lasting impact on farming families in rural Sindh and the Kacchi Plains of Balochistan.
