Supreme Court dismissed appeal; Article 5a Social Security Act excludes farmers who start business after becoming farmers.

The Supreme Court dismissed the cassation appeal against a decision ordering the applicant to social security insurance as a farmer. The applicant, who operated a business as an insurance agent before acquiring a farm in 1997, argued for coverage under Article 5a of the Social Security Act for Farmers. The court ruled that this provision only applies to farmers who were already farmers before starting their business, excluding those who became farmers during business operations.
