20 Useful Organic Farming Terms

By , About.com GuideAugust 31, 2012

Follow me on:

Lately, I've been updating the organic farming glossary, and in case you missed them (because little glossary words are easy to miss), I thought I'd round some of the most useful farm terms up.

My first plan was to create this list in alphabetical order. Then I realized, I have zero organic farming terms for J, K, Q, T, X and Y. That said, not having all the letters, here are 20 helpful organic farming terms, using the letters I did have that you may be interested in.

  1. Agricultural Compost
  2. Buffer Strip
  3. Community Supported Agriculture
  4. Double Cropping
  5. Erosion
  6. Forages
  7. Green Manure
  8. Herbicide
  9. Irrigation
  10. Locally Grown
  11. Mulch
  12. NOP Program Handbook
  13. Organic Integrity
  14. Pesticide
  15. Raw Food
  16. Sewage Sludge
  17. USDA National Farmers Market Directory
  18. Value-Added Products
  19. Wild Crop
  20. Zero Tolerance
