I didn't think the rules book was real clear on this so thought I'd ask you. I own property in a different county from where I live. It is farmed by someone else. Can my son that lives with me hunt this ground without a license or does he have to get a license? I think he does but want to make sure! Thanks!

The owner of farmland and his dependents can hunt that property without a permit. I have posted the rule as well as the definition of farmland below.
IC 14-22-11-1
"Farmland" defined; license requirements and conditions
Sec. 1. (a) As used in this section, "farmland" means agricultural
land that is:
(1) devoted or best adaptable for the production of crops, fruits, timber, and the raising of livestock; or
(2) assessed as agricultural land for property tax purposes.
(b) An individual may not take or chase, with or without dogs, a wild animal without having a license, except as follows:
(1) An individual who is a resident or nonresident of Indiana while participating in a field trial that has been sanctioned by the director is not required to possess a license while participating in the trial.
(2) Subject to subsection (d), an owner of farmland located in Indiana who is a resident or nonresident of Indiana and the spouse and children living with the owner may hunt, fish, and trap without a license on the land that the owner owns.
