Link farms are essentially networks of websites that are set up purely for building SEO links and manipulating search engine rankings..Generally link farms will be sites with very thin content and will have many outbound links on the homepage with the purpose of utilising the high PageRank (hopefully) value of that page..

link farming simply suggest too many links at any page of a site. This is just not good in these days of panda and penguin.

Link farming is not simply too many links, that is known as too many links.

technog33k is closer to the definition, however it is not always just the home page. In fact the home page as well as other pages might actually have decent content.
