Permitted use and user responsibilities
The content on this site is provided solely for neutral educational and informational purposes. Users may read, download, and print material for personal, non-commercial use provided the content is not modified and appropriate attribution is preserved. Redistribution or commercial reuse requires prior written permission. Users are responsible for ensuring their own compliance with applicable laws when using site information. The site aims to present factual, objective descriptions of farming structures, practices, and regulations, but content may not be exhaustive.

When contacting the site for clarification or to request corrections, provide sufficient context and factual references. Harassment, unlawful activities, or attempts to interfere with site operation are prohibited. Repetitive or automated data extraction that imposes an undue burden on site infrastructure is not permitted. The site reserves the right to restrict access for misuse consistent with these terms.
Disclaimers and limitation of liability
The site provides general information about agriculture and related public-interest topics. All content is provided on an "as is" basis without warranties of any kind, expressed or implied, including but not limited to accuracy, completeness, or fitness for a particular purpose.

Users should verify information independent of the site before acting on it, especially where legal, health, environmental, or financial consequences may arise. To the fullest extent permitted by law, the site and its operators disclaim liability for any direct, indirect, incidental, consequential, or punitive damages arising from access to, or use of, the site, or reliance on its content. This limitation applies whether the claim is based on contract, tort, strict liability, or any other legal theory. Nothing in these terms is intended to exclude or limit liability that cannot be excluded under applicable law.
