Herbs are primarily grown for their aromatic leaves, stems, or flowers, which are used in cooking, medicine, or for their fragrance.

They are usually smaller plants, often grown in gardens or pots, and are harvested frequently for ongoing use.

Think of herbs like basil, thyme, or rosemary—plants that you pick from regularly but don't typically consume in large quantities.

Herbs, on the other hand, refer to plants grown on a larger scale for food, fiber, or other products.

They are usually grown in fields and harvested in bulk.

Examples include wheat, corn, or rice—plants that are staples in our diet and are grown for mass consumption.

Crops provide sustenance, while herbs enhance flavor, offer medicinal benefits, or add fragrance.
