1、农民 is universally used.
2、农人 is less used in modern Chinese language, which may appeared more in the ancient Chinese.
3、农夫 refers to a male farmer who is usually beyond middle age while 农妇 refers to a female one.

农民——在中国大陆(mainland)最常用;
农人——在中国台湾(Taiwan)最常用;
农夫——好像一般用在寓言故事,或者是翻译的国外文学作品中。
在汉语中,凡是身份高贵的,都用“人”,例如:贵人,富人,工人。凡是身份低一些的,都用“民”,例如:贱民,庶民,草民。
据说在英语中,也有类似写法。诸如:以or结尾的词,表示地位高的人,doctor; 以er结尾的词,表示地位低或不好的人,例如:gangster。

我给你最接地气的回答, 农民是最标准的,但更标准的是:民工。 因为现在中国农民基本进城打工。
叫“民工”最好了, ming gong !
