Cereal cultivation

Japanese: 穀耕 - こくこう(英語表記)cereal cultivation
Cereal cultivation
This refers to an extensive, large-scale agricultural method in which mainly grains are grown. It is a term that is often used in contrast to intensive horticulture. In this method, seeds are scattered on cultivated land and then harvested with little or no intervention. Many grains have the properties to produce a certain yield under certain weather conditions using this method, in contrast to the crops that are the subject of horticulture, which require careful management.

Japanese:
粗放的・大規模に,主として穀物を栽培する農耕方式をいう。集約的に行われる園耕などとの対比で,しばしば使われる用語である。その栽培法は,耕起した耕地に種子をばらまきにした後は,ほとんど手を加えることなく収穫に至るというものである。多くの穀物は特定の気象条件下においては,このような栽培法によっても一定の収穫をあげうる性質をもっており,この点で,園耕の対象となる作物が,周到な管理を必要とすることと対照的である。
