About Vegetable Farming
Vegetable farming is the growing of vegetables for human consumption. A relatively small operation is a market garden while a larger farm may grow large quantities of a few vegetables and sell them in bulk to major markets or middlemen, which requires large growing operations. A farm may produce for local customers, which requires a larger distribution effort. A farm may produce a variety of vegetables for sale through an on-Farm Stall, a local farmer's market, or a u-pick operation. Increasing the production and productivity of vegetable crops are the main objectives of vegetable farming.
