Estimados(as):
Necesito saber si alguien conoce la diferencia entre estos dos términos "organic farming" y "organic agriculture", según IATE los dos términos se traducen igual, de todas maneras busco la diferencia ya que hay párrafos del texto que estoy traduciendo en el que se nombran ambos.
Extracto: Organic agriculture world-wide offers the promise of a future to produce and distribute food and
other farm products in a healthy, ecologically sound, truly sustainable and fair way. The full
benefits of organic agriculture are just now being realized—from ecosystem services to the
provision of healthier food - yet, to reach its full potential organic farming needs to address
many challenges. While organic agriculture has grown in strength and is in the most favorable
position it has ever been in with respect to market conditions, government policies and
international institutional support, it still does not have adequate resources to continue its
expansion.

cultivo ecológico
El diccionario www.merriam-webster.com distingue entre "agricultura" y "farming". No hace falta aquí definir lo que es "agriculture". "Farming" es definido como "the job or business of running a farm" y en su segunda acepción como "the practice of agriculture or aquaculture". Creo que en tal caso "agriculture farming" se puede traducir como "cultivo ecológico" pues no siempre "farming" es sinónimo de "agricultura" como puedes ver en el ejemplo de uso que cito con su traducción.
Example sentence:
Our Organic Farm School program promotes environmentally sound sustainable organic farming practices (Nuestro programa Granja Escuela Orgánica Autosuficiente promueve prácticas de cultivo orgánico ambientalmente sostenible)

agricultura orgánica
Una sugerencia: en el glosario de FAO traducen organic farming y organic agriculture como agricultura orgánica (pero no ecológica).

Discussion
If you really wanted to make a distinction (although the source text is not using them as distinct terms, IMO) you can imagine "agriculture" as relating to the industry and "farming" as relating to the vocation.
El primer término se refiere más al conjunto de conocimientos o negocios mientras el segundo término parece tener una matiz más práctica (skill).
