The distinction between agriculture and industry can be subtle in contemporary developed countries, particularly in the United States. While small family farms do still exist, the predominant share of the agricultural market belongs to large-scale operations that more closely resemble Fortune 500 corporations (and in many cases are, in fact, Fortune 500 companies). However, when you compare smaller-scale farming operations with modern factories, there can be a tremendous difference between agriculture and the manufacturing industry, for example. Both tend to create and support lifestyles that differ from each other – in some respects, quite substantially.Definition of Agriculture

Agriculture is the practice and science of cultivating the soil for growing crops of all kinds as well as breeding, rearing and selecting animals for the provision of food and other products. From the earliest days of recorded history and even before, humans have used farming, livestock management and hunting to fulfill basic survival needs, such as food, clothing and even shelter.
Definition of Industry

Industry is the production of goods and related services within an economy. Manufacturing is the major driving force of industry, especially as it relates to the collection, processing and incorporation of raw materials into tangible products for sale. Today, those physical products are typically manufactured in large facilities known as factories.
