Urban Greenery, while potentially beneficial for creating green spaces in urban environments and contributing to sustainability in cities, is not primarily considered a type of sustainable farming. Sustainable farming usually refers to practices that are directly involved in the cultivation of crops and the raising of livestock in a way that is environmentally sound, economically viable, and socially responsible.

The other practices listed—Hydroponics, Polyculture, Agroforestry, and Crop Rotation—are all recognized types of sustainable farming practices:

- **Hydroponics**: A method of growing plants without soil, typically using mineral nutrient solutions in a water solvent, which can save water and space.
- **Polyculture**: The simultaneous cultivation or exploitation of several crops or kinds of animals, which often improves biodiversity and reduces the spread of pests and diseases.
- **Agroforestry**: A land use management system in which trees or shrubs are grown around or among crops or pastureland, which can improve soil quality and carbon sequestration.
- **Crop Rotation**: The practice of growing a series of different types of crops in the same area in sequenced seasons to improve soil health and reduce pest and weed pressure.
