Here's wha the law says. It's probably similar in your state.

Check your state laws. If you are a farmer or rancher wich farm plates. You need to be a farmer/rancher, a relative, or an EMPLOYEE with farm plates. Can drive 150 miles, but no hazmat. Ironically anything over 1001 gal requires a tanker. You also need hazmat for annhydrous. I pull doubles @ a 1000 gal each with the pickup. Every farmer does it, almost none have any type of endorcement. If you have any investment in the farming operation, you can claim it's exchange of labor. My dad farmed for 44 years. He bought a straight truck in '79. Him and his business parther would hall loads for each other. They still got paid by check. Never been autided or questioned. Also I have two farm vehicles. Both have sleepers.

So, what you're saying, is that I should tell my boss to pay for the time to add tanker and hazmat to my license? Because I could get screwed, transporting his fertilizer and liquid fish emulsion, without hazmat and tanker?
