No difference. Corporate farming is merely a business label applied to name a farm or ranch in order for a family (or a group of people) to take advantage of the accounting and legal benefits that comes with such a label.

Compared with family farming corporate farming is?
Still a family farm, despite the size. Here's a fascinating statistic that most don't realize: According to the EPA, 87% of all farms are individually or family-owned and operated. Corporate farms make up 4% of those farms, and only 1% of such corporate farms are solely owned and operated by other-cooperative, estates, trusts, etc. Another source (from the book Compassion by the Pound) states that the number of farms that are corporations themselves are family-owned and operated. Many, if not all such farms started small as the quaint, romantic-type farm many think of today into such large corporations.
What is the difference between corporate farming and family farming?
There is no difference, actually. Many, if not most corporate farms are owned by families, and are still considered a family farm. The term "family farm" should never always equate to a "small farm," nor should the term "corporate farm" should ever equate to a large-scale operation owned by a multi-national company or corporation. Many family farms are very large (often being the largest farming enterprises in the country), and many corporate farms have been formed by families who wished to take advantage of the legal and accounting benefits that comes with operating such a business enterprise.
How has technology affected farming?
Technology has affected farming by making it possible for fewer people to grow more crops per acre, at lower cost than would otherwise be the case. Technology has also contributed to the decline of the family farm and the rise of large corporate farms that are more like farming factories.

Mixed-crop farming is just a type of farming practice to enhance soil quality.

It should come to no surprise that such farming operations practice mixed-crop farming just as often as those farms not labelled as corporations.
