No, a ranch mostly raises animals (e.g. cattle, sheep, exotic animals, chickens), a farm mostly grows crops (e.g. wheat, corn, vegetables, fruit). Either can be of any size.

Another type of ranch is called a "dude ranch", it does not raise either animals or grow crops. A dude ranch is a western themed lodging and entertainment facility. Horse riding and chuckwagon meals are offered to paying guests.
