The correct option is A

agriculture


The science of cultivation of land and production of grains and other food crops in large scale is known as agriculture. Cultivation and farming are both parts of agriculture. Cultivation deals with the preparation of soil for agriculture. Farming is a more individual practice involving an area of land with buildings on it (as well as fencing, water facilities, etc.), that is used to grow crops and/or rear animals for human consumption.
