| Employment in Agriculture and Livestock Auction Operations Under the Section 13(b)(13) Exemption |
Under the terms of section 13(b)(13), the farmer may operate a livestock auction solely for his own benefit or he may join with ``other farmers'' to auction livestock for their mutual benefit. (See Sec. 780.614 with regard to the definition of ``farmer.'') Unless the auction is conducted by the farmer alone or with others who are ``farmers'' the exemption does not apply.
