農友 vs 农户

(coll.) farmer · Preferred written form

台灣 · Taiwan
農友 ㄋㄨㄥˊ ㄧㄡˇ · nóng yǒu
vs
大陆 · Mainland
农户 nóng hù · ㄋㄨㄥˊ ㄏㄨˋ

What differs, and by how much

Preferred written form The two preferred forms differ by a single character. In Taiwan the standard term is 農友; on the Mainland it is 农户 - both point at “(coll.) farmer”.

Taiwan’s Ministry of Education dictionaries record 農友、農戶 for this concept. The Mainland standard is among them - the difference is which form each side makes the default.

Neither term carries an HSK or TOCFL level in this table - this pair is dictionary-recorded, not syllabus-derived.

Pair source: CC-CEDICT, which tags the Taiwan form as Taiwan usage.
