I work for a produce company. It varies what you need, we require certain certifications... but if just selling on the side of the road then, no.
Not for small farms but what they produce can be highly regulated as far as animals are concerned and get rigorously checked for welfare, tuberculosis, fowlpest etc., in the UK. Some small farmers take their crops to the local market with no problems.
Not so much of a licence then but regulations, particularly in the European Community. They have legislation on everything from organic, the welfare of farm animals, importing and exporting and everything from that to the shape of bananas. Thousands and thousands of pages long....... Probably the same in the USA too.
The UK has the Royal Agricultural University plus several colleges with degrees in types of farming and animal husbandry. Farming is a very important industry these days.
