Yeah but I still think the terminology is off. Do Avocados grow on a ranch? Are 300 Avocados a herd?

Maybe it's a 60 acre farm.

I just had this mental image of a grizzled old guy talking about the great "Avocado Roundup of Ought Six."

Agricultural ambiguity. If you raise pigs or hogs you have a pig farm or a hog farm. It’s never called a pig ranch or a hog ranch.

Ironically, spoiled avocados are fed to hogs.

Ranch = livestock

Farm = vegetation
