'''Agriculture worlds''', otherwise known as '''ag-worlds''',{{Ref/Reuse|ch}} or '''ag planet'''{{Ref/Novel|Id=polchapt1|PoL|Chapter=1}} are [[planet|worlds]] used by the [[Unified Earth Government]] to produce and provide food for [[Earth]] and its [[human colonies|colonies]].{{Ref/Novel|Id=ch|CH|Page=76}} These worlds, typically found among the [[Outer Colonies]], are used primarily for agricultural purposes, and are therefore not usually equipped for military action. The exports that agriculture worlds provided to the [[Inner Colonies]] generally included livestock, mineral water, and vegetable and fruit goods.{{Ref/Book|[[Halo Encyclopedia (2009 edition)]]|Page=299}}

==Overview==
[[Harvest]] in the [[Epsilon Indi system]] is a known agriculture world (hence its name, "Harvest"),<ref name="ch"/> having the highest per capita agricultural productivity rate of any colony and was capable of providing foodstuffs for over six other worlds.<ref>'''Halo: Contact Harvest''', ''page 33''</ref> Another agricultural world was [[New Llanelli]] in the [[Brunel system]].<ref>'''Halo: Mortal Dictata''', ''page 118''</ref> By [[2535]], most of the UEG's agricultural worlds were [[glassed]] by the [[Covenant]]. As a result, some human colonies began to experience food shortages. This forced some Inner Colony worlds, such as [[Chi Rho]], to convert any available arable soil to farmlands.<ref>'''[[Halo: The Cole Protocol]]''', ''page 29''</ref>
