adventure in the nature of
trade or an investmnet.
Custom work, which is
often part of farming, may
become of such scale, that it
is more than the normal part
of a farming operation. The

farming. Through the growth
of some activities on the
farm, they may have exclud-

Gravel pits, roadside stands,•
share cropping, custom
work, feedlot operation, and
drying grain could be ques-

large enough to be extra to
the farming iaperation.
For the feedlot, the ani-

by the operator and kept for a
period of at least three

The rental of farm land to
someone other than spouse,

farming. This could have
serious implication on the
death of a farmer. Share-
cropping is considered a
rental arrangement.
The leasing of a bull to a
company for the purpose of
extracting semen is not con-
