description:	Ontomatica's Commodity and Crop Label Application integrates relevant ontology rules (items, properties, relationships and constraints) with relevant data sets. The Commodity and Crop Label Application is the electronic specification of commodity or crop product. Background: A crop is any cultivated plant, fungus, or alga that is harvested for food, clothing, livestock fodder, biofuel, medicine, or other uses. In contrast, animals that are raised by humans are called livestock, except those that are kept as pets. Microbes, such as bacteria or viruses, are referred to as cultures. Microbes are not typically grown for food, but are rather used to alter food. For example, bacteria are used to ferment milk to produce yogurt. Major crops include sugarcane, pumpkin, maize (corn), wheat, rice, cassava, soybeans, hay, potatoes and cotton.
