Question juridique clé
Whether the insured's hypothetical income without invalidity was significantly below the usual wage in agriculture, requiring earnings parallelism.
Solution extraite
The Federal Court held that the cantonal decision could be confirmed; on the record before it, the court could not go beyond the parties' conclusions and therefore did not revise the lower court's approach.
Motifs extraits
The court noted inconsistencies in the parties' figures. It considered the cantonal court's use of the syndicate data problematic, but also held that the ESS was not applicable to agriculture. Although the cantonal court should have relied on the cantonal agricultural contract-type wage figures, the Federal Court could not grant relief beyond the appellant's conclusions.
