(1) A covered farm is eligible for a Qualified Exemption if it meets the requirements of RSA 112.5.(2) A covered farm which is eligible for a Qualified Exemption under RSA 112.5, must establish and maintain adequate records demonstrating compliance with criteria necessary for Qualified Exemption as required by RSA 112.7(b). (3) A covered farm eligible for a Qualified Exemption is subject to the modified requirements set forth in RSA 112.6, and this chapter.
