"Alright, let's top these bastards before they kill the old man."

— Captain Price

The Farmer is an NPC civilian who appears in the level "Hunted" on Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare who can be killed by an Ultranationalist. He is the only civilian to play a part in a mission, except the people driving the SUVs in "Death From Above".

AchievementEdit

Man of the People (10 ) - Save the farmer in the campaign mission, "Hunted".

Trivia Edit

• The farmer, if not saved, will be killed by a soldier wielding a M9, even though the gunshot is that of a Desert Eagle.
• If the player kills the Ultranationalist just as he is about to kill the old man, sometimes the gun goes off and the farmer will still be alive.
• In the level "Game Over", the farmer will appear as the place-model for civilians driving away in their cars.
• If the player saves him, he will run back to his house with his two hands out, as if he were holding a rifle. This is because there is no weaponless running animation.
• If the player saves the farmer before Captain Price says so, the achievement, Man Of The People, will not be unlocked.
• If the player kills the farmer before the Ultranationalist, the message "Friendly fire will not be tolerated" will be shown and the player will fail the mission.
  • Very rarely, if the player kills the Farmer using the M203 Grenade launcher, the player will not get the friendly fire penalty.
• By using no-clip or running to the house, the player can see that when the farmer runs into the house, he passes through a door without opening it.
