No. According to the definition of “farm” in 21 CFR 1.227, an establishment devoted to the
growing of crops, the harvesting of crops, the raising of animals, or any combination of these
activities, would remain within the “farm” definition if it packs or holds RACs, regardless of
whether the farm packs or holds RACs grown on that farm, RACs grown on another farm under
the same management, or RACs grown on another farm under different management. Any such
operation that meets the “farm” definition is not subject to the requirement to register under
section 415 of the FD&C Act.
