- 1. First of all, do you know what kind of farm this is?
- 3. Exactly! But, I don't just have animals. If you look far over there in that field, what do you see?

- 2. No, I have no clue! I see a lot of animals though!
- 4. Oh my gosh! You have a corn field! That's a lot of corn!
- 4. Good question! I sell animal products like milk wool, and cheese that I get from the cows and sheep. This is something called commercial farming where I am raising the animals in order to make a profit.
- 2. Yeah! I grow crops like wheat and corn for the purpose of raising my pigs, cows, chickens and sheep!
- 3. Well if the plants are only for the animals? What do you sell?
- 1. So you grow crops and you raise animals?
