Farm boss (4)

I believe the answer is:

stud

I believe this clue is a double definition.

'farm' is the first definition.
(stud farm is a kind of farm)

'boss' is the second definition.
(both can mean a metal decoration)

(Other definitions for stud that I've seen before include "Jewellery item; horse breeding establishment" , "Place of breeding" , "Large headed nail" , "kind of farm" , "Ladies' man?" .)

I've seen this clue in The Globe and Mail and The Telegraph.
