Do farmers need a cdl license in Arkansas?

No, farmers do not need a commercial driver's license (CDL) in Arkansas if they are operating farm vehicles exclusively for agricultural purposes within a 150-mile radius of their farm. However, if farmers transport agricultural commodities beyond the 150-mile radius, they are required to obtain a CDL. The same applies if they transport hazardous materials or operate vehicles with a gross vehicle weight rating (GVWR) over 26,000 pounds.
