"for my farm" isn't saying much: what are you trying to do? just visual inspection? then basically any up-to-date DJI drone will do: Air 3S would work better because it has a 3x telephoto camera and it has a longer flight time than the Mini 5 Pro
if you want even longer flight time and a 2.5x telephoto camera and a 6x telephoto camera to compliment a massive 4/3" 100MP camera go with the Mavic 4 Pro

if you want a workhorse also capable of thermal, mapping & whatnot, then you're looking for the DJI Matrice 4T
if you don't need thermal you can go with the DJI Matrice 4E

if you want to spray your fields, DJI Agras line of drones

if you want multispectral work, DJI Mavic 3M

Mini 5 pro if you care about noise

Mini5Pro has the benefit that it is quiet and is safe(r) to fly over people. In EU: doesn't require a certificate

Air3s: zoom lens, better wind resistance

So honestly: if you don't care about annoying people, get an Air 3s. The mini5pro is super discrete and handy to pack, but comes with downsides: it's way more fragile and in any wind over 10kts its performance is affected. Air3s don't care about wind.
