A link farm is a type of spamming the file of a web crawler (now and again called spamdexing).

Other link exchange systems are intended to permit individual sites to specifically trade joins with other applicable sites and are not viewed as a type of spamdexing.

Link farming is a practice that tries to increase the amount of backlinks pointing to a website through automated means (robots) or humanmeans (paid for links). This creates unnatural links with little value, which is likely to cause your site harm in the eyes of Google. Link exchanging is a practice that involves two websites/businesses linking to one another in order to encourage potential customers to navigate between the sites by clicking on links on the other site. This process can be beneficial when done ethically, as it encourages genuine visitors from one website/business to another."

A link farm is a special type of technique that can be used to increase the link popularity of a website by placing their link at different sites, while link exchange is a technique where you and another website administrator exchange their links with each other, in link exchange you are not the webmaster of other website while in link farm you can handle other website too.

Link farming is a dubious search engine optimization (SEO) strategy in which a website enters into a reciprocal linking relationship with another site or pays a provider for a large number of inbound links. Since many search engines use inbound links as a factor in determining a website's page rank, websites use link farming to increase their ranking in search engine results.

Link exchange is the process of getting backlinks by giving backlinks in return. Many websites exist specifically for exchanging backlinks.

Link farms and link exchanges are both a spammy methods of backlink building and it is not recommended to do so. They are part of black hat SEO.
