I don't think there's anything to that effect in the rules.

Compare Farming. Running a medieval peasant holding (say England in 1150), with one yoke of oxen and a plow and enough yield to feed your family in good years and pay the rent in good years or bad, is Farming; running a modern wheat farm in Alberta with heavy equipment and fertilizers is Farming too, even though the yield is probably enough to feed you and a hundred or two families.
