lede image too large for users that use zoom
Due to my poor eyesight I need to zoom web pages to read the text, but this article page has an over-large thumbnail (upright = 2.2) which completely fills the entire 1920 pixels of my monitor. I have to reduce my zoom to 150% before there's space for any text, but that makes the text somewhat too small for me to read the lede text. My settings do have thumbnail size set to 400px which I could reduce but then I'd have to zoom more for the normally smaller thumbnails. Could the size be reduced to something more reasonable, please? Other FA articles do not have this problem. For reference here is the thumbnail markup:

- I bumped the thumbnail size down a bit. KoA (talk) 17:09, 26 December 2021 (UTC)
- Well, I sympathise, but for an image with this aspect ratio (low and wide), a larger size is entirely reasonable. I'd have thought you could have panned across the image; but if it fills the monitor, it seems the setup might be working rather well really. Chiswick Chap (talk) 17:40, 26 December 2021 (UTC)
Suggestion about lead image
I'd like to suggest to replace the lead image with a collage of 4 images like we have done for other articles, so that the variety of agriculture becomes immediately visible and so that we don't just focus on large, mechanised, high-income type agriculture (as if that is "the main/the best/most common). Compare with the image collage at sewage treatment or sustainable energy or climate change adaptation. We could pick out 4 images that show a spread of geographies, sizes, type of agriculture...

Climate change aspects
I've just split the existing climate change section in two as one is about the effects of CC on agriculture and one is about the contributions of ag to CC. Two different things. I would be inclined to use excerpts from effects of climate change on agriculture and greenhouse gas emissions from agriculture so that we always have the latest information there - would that be OK for a WP:GA article?

"Agricultura" listed at Redirects for discussion
An editor has identified a potential problem with the redirect Agricultura and has thus listed it for discussion. This discussion will occur at Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion/Log/2022 November 30#Agricultura until a consensus is reached, and readers of this page are welcome to contribute to the discussion.

Changes to the page
Dear users,
I work for the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO). As part of a broader UN-Wikipedia project and in line with FAO’s Open Access policy, I have been adding content, recent estimates, maps and graphs from some FAO publications to selected Wikipedia pages (full list available here).
When checking pages containing content related to food and agriculture, I noticed that the Agriculture page might be updated with content from FAO publications on agriculture and, in particular, FAO annual flagship “The State of Food and Agriculture”.
I began adding content as is from free-licensed publications (see OTRS permissions) as well as rephrased content from FAO and non-FAO publications and resources. I already included a new paragraph on “Agricultural Mechanization” and made some changes to the overall text by including additional relevant information, editing small inaccuracies, and by rephrasing content – if needed.
I therefore aim to keep updating the page with more recent estimates from the latest editions of The State of Food and Agriculture as well as other FAO and non-FAO publications and resources. DanSD19 (talk) 14:28, 14 March 2023 (UTC)
Coprophagia vandalism
the page is edit locked, and someone has pasted the content of the coprophagia at the top. Someone please remove that 160.19.3.249 (talk) 03:48, 31 March 2023 (UTC)
- It was actually vandalism at an included other template file, so even editing this article wouldn't fix it. I fixed it there. Thanks for bringing it to attention. DMacks (talk) 03:58, 31 March 2023 (UTC)
Lack of irrigation facilities
These crops are totally depended on the water facility (Figure 3), Due to lack of water facilities, the farmers may lose their crops, and the annual income will be low. Therefore, farmers have to take loan for their daily household expenses and other needs. 106.193.65.244 (talk) 12:39, 6 May 2023 (UTC)
