Abstract

Differential assessment laws are now in use in 31 States. Deferred tax laws are most common; some States use preferential assessment laws or restrictive agreements. These laws typically are instituted for one of two reasons: to reduce what are perceived as inequities in the application of property tax to farms, or to influence land use. These reasons are discussed in the bulletin and summaries of individual State laws are provided.
