khet, krishi-kshetra


Explanation:
In Hindi, 'field' is 'maidan', and 'farm' is 'khet'.
Also we can elaborate the meaning as 'krishi-kshetra' which stands for 'field for farming'.

in modern days, the word 'farm' is itself used in Hindi. However this word (farm) is limited among educated people who are not the majority.

The word खेत cannot be used for 'farm' if you define it as a "a tract of land, usually with a house, barn, silo, etc., on which crops and often livestock are raised for livelihood". (Ref: http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/farm)

खेत, खेती, फ़ार्म


Explanation:
Khet is used for "Farm" and "Field" both. If you wish, you can use its transliterated form "फ़ार्म" as well which is very common.

Field is more used for मैदान and क्षेत्र. However खेत is also correct for this.
