põllumajanduslikum

Põllumajanduslikum is an Estonian comparative adjective, meaning "more agricultural" or "more agrarian." It is derived from the noun "põllumajandus," which translates to "agriculture." The adjective is used to describe something that exhibits a greater degree of agricultural characteristics, practices, or qualities compared to something else. For instance, a rural area might be described as põllumajanduslikum if it has a higher proportion of farmland and agricultural activities than another rural area. Similarly, a lifestyle or a certain type of economy could be considered põllumajanduslikum if it relies more heavily on farming and related pursuits.

The comparative form is typically formed by adding the suffix "-um" to the base adjective, though in this case, "põllumajanduslikum" is the direct comparative of "põllumajanduslik" (agricultural). Its use is generally straightforward, indicating a relative increase in agricultural attributes. It is not a commonly used word in everyday conversation but appears in contexts where distinctions in the degree of agricultural influence are being made, such as in geographical descriptions, economic analyses, or discussions about rural development. The superlative form would be "kõige põllumajanduslikum," meaning "most agricultural."
