Corporations to share in agricultural tax relief decision
The House voted 70 to 64 to extend the 1978 tax relief to corporately owned agricultural land, rejecting attempts to exclude corporations and other entities. The measure would tax land for its agricultural productivity, potentially saving farmers and ranchers about 58.9 million dollars annually, as debate touched on transparency and who benefits from the policy. Weather outlook for Pecos region showed mostly cloudy skies with scattered showers tonight and Thursday, highs in the 50s to 70s and notable thunder activities in the Big Bend area.
