The Cereal Association is similarly applying appropriate interventions whose prime purpose is to reduce the cost of growing wheat mostly for the medium and small scale farmers. The measures adopted include expanded programme of extension services as well as exploring avenues for bulk purchase of inputs. In respect to the large scale farmers, the productivity of wheat which is grown predominantly by *estate farmers*, are only 15% below those in the USA. This indicates that it is possible to substantially raise levels of wheat productivity.

grands exploitants

agriculteurs de grandes plantations
Estate agriculture (anglais) est rendu par agriculture de grandes plantation. On peut penser que le propirétaire de la terre en question, que l'on nomme familièrement un fermier d'où le terme farmer en anglais, pourrait alors porter le nom d'agriculteur de grandes plantation.

"In the UK, farm as an agricultural unit, always denotes the area of pasture and other fields together with its farmhouse and farmyard, barns, cowsheds, stables, etc. In England there is a vague point when a large farm ceases to be referred to as a farm and becomes an estate; although this term can refer to a collection of farms in the same ownership."

I know, but most of the time "les grands exploitants" are "propriétaires"...Je n'ai malheureusement pas trouvé de mot qui engloberait les deux...
