Adirondack case guy said: (quoted from post at 14:48:29 04/22/15) I always thought that a person had to be able to document $10,000.00 in gross income from crop or livestock sales, anually to obtain tax breaks and farm exemptions. This would make it pretty easy for your town to segrigate non farmers from real farmers. I think your idea of R1 tires is a bit rediculas myself. I have R1s on my Case 224 lawn mower. Does that make me a farmer???

I've heard that before too. I've never grossed $10K in a year, but this is definitely a farm. All our taxes are paid on a farm, we're taxed as a farm and listed in public records as a farm. Around here you have to be shipping milk for some people to consider you a "real" farmer but they often change their minds when they see 100 head of sheep in a field. As one dairy farmer said, "That ain't a hobby, that's work." You have to start someplace to build something.
In NY we do license "Special Commercial" vehicles, things like graders, cranes and payloaders used by municipalities or big construction firms. Generally they are machines capable of exceeding 25mph (farm tractors can't legally) that are commonly used on public roadways. Farm tractors and the like are not required to be registered or insured, thank goodness.

Today's Featured Article - Usin Your Implements: Bucket Loader - by Curtis Von Fange. Introduction: Dad was raised during the depression years of the thirties. As a kid he worked part time on a farm in Kansas doing many of the manual chores. Some of the more successful farmers of that day had a new time saving device called a tractor. It increased the farm productivity and, in general, made life easier because more work could be done with this 'mechanical beast'. My dad dreamed that some day he would have his own tractor with every implement he could get. When he rea
