As far as I know, a link farm is simply a set of pages that have links and not content, just like a banner farm is a set of pages populated with nothing but banners leading to other sites. I am not familiar with the term "link farm" being applied to sites associated with a common webring. Sites in a webring normally have pertinent content.
Where did you see thi information on this? I would really like to take a look at it.
