Bennett urges early use value farming tax plan in Kansas
Gov. Robert Bennett urges the 1977 Legislature to adopt use value appraisal for agricultural land, advance two agriculture resolutions to Carter and Congress, and form a water resources policy committee. He warns overhauling tax rules must avoid favoring speculators and favors income averaging, objective valuation, and recapture methods. The proposals also seek reduced federal fees from new grain inspections and faster funding for the soils survey.
