The clue "A clip around ear for leaders on the farm - it's some measure of what the farmers have to deal with" leads us to the answer "ACRE". Let's break down this clue to understand why it corresponds to the answer.

  1. "A clip around ear" suggests taking a part of a word or "clip" and placing it "around ear". In this case, the word "ear" is a hint pointing to the letters "EA".
  2. "Leaders on the farm" implies that we need to consider the first letters of certain words associated with farming. These leaders could refer to the initial letters of common words used in agriculture.
  3. To find out which farming-related words are involved, we need to consider the phrase "it's some measure of what the farmers have to deal with". Here, "measure" hints at a unit of land measurement commonly encountered by farmers. This unit is exactly what the farmers need to deal with in their daily work.

Putting all of this together, we connect the "clip around ear" (EA) with the "leaders on the farm" (initial letters) and the "measure of what the farmers have to deal with". The answer that matches these clues is "ACRE". An acre is a unit of land measurement often used by farmers.

Therefore, the answer "ACRE" perfectly aligns with the given clue, which cleverly combines wordplay and agricultural terminology to lead us to the correct solution.
