What are the different types of farming?

There are basically two, with two variations. The major two types are dairy farming and raising beef cattle. Dairy cattle are primarily used to produce milk, while beef cattle are raised to be eaten. Dairy cattle and beef cattle are usually different breeds, although dairy cattle are sold to be eaten when they can no longer produce a copious amount of milk. The two variations are usually considered hobbies: raising dairy or beef cattle in order to show them at fairs, exhibitions, etc., and training steers to be used as beasts of burden (oxen). In most cases, even these animals will end up on a dinner plate.
