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 - Grain Threshing in the Early 40's - by Jerry D. Coleman. How many of you can sit there and say that you have plowed with a mule? Well I would say not many, but maybe a few. This story is about the day my Grandfather Brown (true name) decided along with my parents to purchase a new Ford tractor. It wasn't really new except to us. The year was about 1967 and my father found a good used Ford 601 tractor to use on the farm instead of "Bob", our old mule. Now my grandfather had had this mule since the mid 40's and he was getting some age on him. S
