That sentence, in plain words

The term covers more than growing crops. It covers farm visits sold to the public. It covers selling farm goods straight to buyers. It covers selling the farm's own gear.

What this is about

Silviculture means growing and caring for trees. The Secretary may add other farm-linked work. That makes the list open ended.

No action is recorded against this proposal. That is not evidence that none has been taken, and nobody has yet read it against the record. See what the tracker does not yet cover.
