How to use 农产品

农产品 is a fairly formal word used in news, trade, and business contexts for crops, fruit, vegetables, meat, and other farm goods. In everyday talk people often just name the item or say 菜 or 水果. Example: 这个地区的农产品主要出口到日本。(Zhège dìqū de nóngchǎnpǐn zhǔyào chūkǒu dào Rìběn.) This region's agricultural products are mainly exported to Japan.

Break it into three parts: 农 (nóng) farming, 产 (chǎn) to produce, and 品 (pǐn) goods or products. Farming plus producing plus products gives you "things produced by farming." The 品 even looks like three boxes of goods stacked up.

Common mistake: Learners often confuse 产品 (chǎnpǐn, product) with 产生 (chǎnshēng, to arise) and say 农产生 by mistake. Also keep the third tone on 产 (chǎn) and 品 (pǐn). In speech the first one shifts toward a second tone, but both are written as third tone.
