Not knowing every aspect of your situation here is what I suggest after skimming S.D. laws. As a farmer that stays in S.D. you do not need a CDL or a medical card to do farm hauling in a tractor trailer or a straight truck. The only wiggle to that is hazmat such as hauling fuel to your farm. As a farmer in S.D. that crosses state lines you do not need a CDL or medical card as long as you stay in 150 miles and drive a straight truck only. A tractor trailer across state lines requires a CDL and a medical card by federal law.
So if ever there will be a chance you want to cross the state line with your straight truck claim interstate exempt. If you will never cross a state line claim intrastate exempt. This will allow you to keep your CDL for now without a medical card. If in the future you ever want to upgrade so you can take your tractor trailer across state lines you just need to get a medical card and upgrade your CDL to interstate non exempt.
