Now you know how big the world of agriculture is. But did you know there are different types of crops? Many farmers grow crops like field corn, wheat, and soybeans. These crops have many different uses, so we need lots of them. That is why many farmers grow them. But there are other farms that produce crops that are called "Specialty Crops." Specialty crops are crops grown and used by people for food, medicine, or decoration. Fruits, vegetables, tree nuts, herbs, and flowers are all examples.
