The random use of FARM for large areas is totally inappropriate, and

It's actually "farmland" rather than farm, and therefore tagged
correctly. If it was me I'd use a lightly colour for farmland so that
farmyards (also tagged correctly in that area) stand out a bit more
(obligatory "Blue Peter"** link http://imgur.com/L6l2g3z * to compare

You can argue whether or not populating most of England with
landuse=farmland is a good use of anyone's time, but you can't argue
that it's wrong :)

dark red casing) than what we have now too.
