Intensive commercial production of fruit berries, nuts... could be both:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plantation#Orchards
landuse=plantation
or
landuse=orchard
+ new intensivity tag (eg orchard=intensive or orchard_intensive=yes or ...)
http://taginfo.openstreetmap.org/keys/?key=orchard#values

plantation seems better fit, but is not used much.
orchard is establihed, but orchard intensivity would be new.

so, I'm still divided regarding orchards.

Hop fields are primarily larger fields areas, that don't fit with the
"garden" tag (the minimum in the source is 500 m2)
http://taginfo.openstreetmap.org/tags/landuse=hop_field would be new, no
prior use so far
http://taginfo.openstreetmap.org/tags/landuse=hop_garden has only 50 uses
and it's status is not approved yet
http://taginfo.openstreetmap.org/tags/crop=hop seems more widely used, with
670+ instances
Still leaning strongly towards established landuse=farmland + crop=hop
(winter renderings can add poles and wires if needed from this info)

greets,
Štefan
