Agroecology is the study of specific relationships of crops and farm animals to their environment and to each other.  Note: Agroecology can also be spelled agro-ecology.

An agroecosystem is the total interaction between crops and farm animals and their environment within a farming or ranching operation.

An ecosystem is the total interaction between all organisms that live in an area with each other and their environment. A pond, forest, or rangeland will each have its own ecosystem.
