three different words for farmer?

Postby kschuller3488 » November 28th, 2010 4:45 am

I was looking up farmer in my dictionary and found three different french words corresponding. I was wondering what the different nuances are between them:
un fermier
un cultivateur
un agriculteur

Any thoughts?

While we're on the subject of nuances... marron versus brun. When would you use one over the other?

Merci,
Kate
