The term 'poor farmer' can be summarized as a PEASANT, which is a seven-letter word. A PEASANT is a person who works on the land, usually for a landlord, and has very little money or possessions. Peasants are typically found in rural areas and are often subsistence farmers, meaning they produce just enough food to feed their families. They are often seen as the lowest class in society and have limited access to education and healthcare.
