My first impression is that you extracted/unzipped the mod in the wrong place. It looks like you use Linux and have checked the hidden files option. This makes the .minetest folder/map visible. Did you create the folders "mods/minetest" yourself?
My advice is to remove farming from that place (and if you created the yourself, the mods/minetest folder)
Extract/unzip the farming mod in the following folder: /home/tusty/
celeron55-minetest-9696ed3/
mods/minetest9696ed3 can be a different version.
If this doesn't work then search your debug.txt file and copy the ERROR-lines (they are near the end of the file). If it is too big, delete the debug.txt file, exit minetest completely, start it up again and start a new game. Now it will be a smaller file, but with the same ERROR in it.
