29 CFR 780.203 - Performance of operations on a farm but not by the farmer.

  • Section Number: 780.203
  • Section Name: Performance of operations on a farm but not by the farmer.

    Logging or sawmill operations on a farm undertaken on behalf of the 
farmer or on behalf of the buyer of the logs or the resulting lumber by 
a contract logger or sawmill owner are not within the scope of 
agriculture unless it can be shown that these logging or sawmill 
operations are clearly incidental to farming operations on the farm on 
which the logging or sawmill operations are being conducted. For 
example, the clearing of additional land for cultivation by the farmer 
or the preparation of timber for construction of his farm buildings 
would appear to constitute operations incidental to ``such farming 
operations.''
