Monoculture
A monoculture farm is a farming system where only one type of crop is grown across a large area. This type of farming can lead to problems such as soil depletion, increased susceptibility to pests and diseases, and negative impacts on biodiversity.

The four top characteristics of a commercial arable farm are defined by the method, market, crops and size. The methods of farming include using machinery and chemicals to produce a monoculture crop which is sold and ranges around 100 acres.
Polyculture farms offer benefits over monoculture farming by promoting biodiversity, reducing the risk of crop failure, improving soil health, and requiring fewer chemical inputs.
This method is normally referred to as either organic farming or traditional farming.
