Do farmers qualify for this

Don’t most farmers already claim for a home office annually?

Probably not because the chances are they are self employed and therefore should be able to plenty of household expenses through the business already

Its not worth the hassle,
Woman i know , said its extra on personal allowance, not tax back,
So saving was about £60 not 315

It's for employees on PAYE. Register and your tax code gets updated

Some farmers, or at least their wives, should be paid to live in what are often out-dated, draughty, cold, rambling, deteriorating piles of junk with leaking roofs.

They work it out at standard £6 per week. So £1.20 per week if 20% tax payer.
You can claim more than the standard £6 per week if your extra costs of homeworking are higher but you must provide evidence.
It is not really worth the bother. I save far more in fuel and time (over 2 hours per day travelling time) with home working than the extra costs incurred on electricity and heating.

I think what you refer to is known as a ‘character residence’.
