I must admit I don't map land use if it is farmland. To me if it isn't mapped it is farmland. It would seem a reasonable default.

Smothering the countryside with landuse when it's farmland seems well over the top to me. Marking a single field surrounded by urban or a village setting seems a good idea, but just making everything in the countryside that isn't woods, water, scrub, wetland, etc etc as farmland or fields seems distracting. Adding a named farmyard however is a very good landmark.

Please give barrier mapping a go as we are out there.

Barriers are really useful countryside mapping. They are good landmarks and distinguishing fences, walls and hedges is very helpful. Breaks or gates etc help show where RoW go, adding a barrier alongside a RoW makes it plain where to go too, which might be less obvious in one direction than in the other.
