The headword, presumably extracted from the quotation, is present participle, masculine nominative singular, of farma/ttw/farma/ssw (cf. phi 108, also phi 101).
[1] Quotation (transmitted, in Adler's view, via the Excerpta Constantini Porphyrogeniti) unidentifiable. It is probable that the verb is used here figuratively.
