The exemption applies only to employees whose work relates to
transportation of fruits or vegetables ``from the farm.'' The phrase
``from the farm'' makes it clear that the preparation of the fruits or
vegetables should be performed on the farm and that the first movement
of the commodities should commence at the farm. A ``farm'' has been
interpreted under the Act to mean a tract of land devoted to one or more
of the primary branches of farming outlined in the definition of
``agriculture'' in section 3(f) of the Act. These expressly include the
cultivation and tillage of the soil and the growing and harvesting of
any agricultural or horticultural commodities.
