See, we American distinguish between a "farm" and a "ranch."
A ranch is approximately the size of Belgium and has cows and/or sheep on it, and has ranch dogs like Aussie dogs.
A farm is a few dozen to a few thousand acres, and has plants, dairy, and/or poultry, usually; sometimes pigs or a few dozen steers. Surely Australia has some farms that *aren't* cattle stations the size of Belgium? In Queensland maybe? :D
