Overview

This publication explains the tax exemptions and special provisions available to Texas farmers, ranchers, and agribusiness managers and the effect of those exemptions on state and local government revenues.

Farmers, ranchers, and agribusiness managers-as well as governmental officials-need to understand these tax exemptions and how revisions to them might affect agriculture. Agribusinesses also need to know which state or local agencies they should contact to secure the tax benefits provided by Texas law. Texas residents can also use this information in determining how the overall tax burden should be divided among various groups.
