Situation dependent. If the vehicle is a registered farm vehicle of a type which would normally require a CDL, a CDL is not required so long as:

  • The vehicle is used solely for the purposes of that farm, and is not hired out on a third party basis (which is illegal to do with farm tags, anyhow). It can, however, be used for the delivery of good produced by that farmer (e.g., I've worked in the past for a sod farmer who delivered sod in a registered farm truck, and it was perfectly legal).
  • The vehicle remains within a 150 mile radius (air radius) of the farm it belongs to... anything beyond that will require a CDL.
  • The vehicle is operated by the farmer, immediate family members of the farmer, or a direct employee of the farmer. A direct employee is a W2 employee... if you're on a 1099, you're not a direct employee, and would need a CDL.
  • The vehicle is registered as a farm vehicle.

If it doesn't meet ALL of these requirements, you'll need a CDL.

Do you need cdl to drive semi for farmer in indiana?

Depends. If it is a registered farm vehicle, you are a direct (W2) employee of that farmer (or an immediate family member of the farmer), and you're operating that vehicle solely within a 150 mile radius of that farm, then a CDL is not required - registered farm vehicles are regulated by the state, rather than the FMCSA. The state may require an upgraded non-CDL license - you'll have to inquire with the Indiana DMV about this.
