Large asteroid (5)

I believe the answer is:

ceres

'large asteroid' is the definition.

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for ceres that I've seen before include "chief of agriculture" , "Corn-goddess" , "Head of agriculture" , "Circling rock" , "Dwarf planet; goddess of agriculture" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
