What does custom farming entail?

Custom farming involves using the insured's farm machinery and equipment to perform agricultural tasks for compensation. This means that a farmer or service provider operates the machinery on another producer's land or for their benefit, receiving payment in return for the services rendered. This contractual arrangement allows the landowner to benefit from the expertise and machinery availability without needing to own or operate the equipment themselves.

In contrast, other options do not accurately reflect the concept of custom farming. For instance, using farm machinery for personal use does not involve any compensation, which is a fundamental aspect of custom farming. Offering farming work for free contradicts the notion of a service exchange, and farming strictly within the insured's premises would not characterize the essence of custom farming, which often involves operating across different properties or for different clients.
