Bill expands ag tax breaks and coop credits in new law
The $18.7 billion tax bill signed this month broadens agricultural tax rules. It retrofits pig pens milking parlors and greenhouses for investment credits, extends credits to farm cooperatives, ends the widow’s tax, excludes cost sharing payments from taxable income, and offers a $100000 home sale exclusion. It aims to ease the cost-price squeeze and creates jobs, with support from Nelson Culver Grassley and others.
