We bought a farm down here and have never heard of any requirement to register as farmers. We are not farmers (now) so why would we have to.
However...
In the UK I was involved in the Fishing Industry and it was the case that if you bought a Fishing Boat that had a White Fish Authority grant on it, sort of like EU Grants now, you, the purchaser had to take over the payments thereon and guarantee to keep the boat fishing. Ipso facto, could it be that your seller has obtained a grant for something and that you would be taking this over and have to guarantee to keep the farm "farming".....just a thought.
