Can a student on a school permit operate a utv/atv on county roadways for farm work?
The answer is yes. The provisions of Section 321.234A(2) requiring insurance and the operator to be 18 years of age do not apply to the agricultural use provision (rather, they apply to the provisions of 234A.1(b) through (g)(the agricultural use portion is in permitted in subsection (a)).
That being said, if the ATV/UTV operator is in violation of one of the other provisions regulating ATV/UTV use or the rules of the road in Chapter 321, they could be ticketed for that. If they drive responsibly while conducting farm chores, it’s a non-issue.
