Farm ship

Farm ships were large starships that were specifically used as mobile farms, and were equipped with greenhouses where crops and livestock were produced. Many major corporations and crime syndicates in the galaxy that produced food, medicine, and narcotics used farm ships to produce their merchandise. Crewmen aboard farm ships were sometimes referred to as "space farmers".

Farm stations were orbital space stations that served as orbital farms in planet's fixed orbit.

Farm ships that produced medicine and natural narcotics were often the target of pirate attacks and, in the case of criminal farm ships, also operated as smuggler ships.
