And FYI: there is a maproulette challenge to change the landuse=farm areas
http://maproulette.org/ui/metrics/2374
But it lists "only" 14.828 available tasks.

In Belgium, the convention is to use farmland for growing plants, and
landuse=meadow for grazing land (raising animals). So here the use of
"farm" means it's old, undefined mapping...

Dear all,

at openstreetmap-carto - the standard style on osm.org [1] - a
change has
been merged
(https://github.com/gravitystorm/openstreetmap-carto/pull/2554 [2])
to drop
rendering of landuse=farm. There was overall consensus that this tag
is
deprecated and its usage steadily declined over the last years, but
there are still around 340 000 uses. See
https://taginfo.openstreetmap.org/tags/landuse=farm [3] and
http://taghistory.raifer.tech/ for details.

This change will make it into the next release, but there is no
release
date yet. You might want to change cases of landuse=farm in your
area to
either landuse=farmland or landuse=farmyard before that. Please
don't do
any automatic re-tagging though. After the release empty spots will
make
it easier to clean up the remaining uses of this tag.

Michael
