Questions
It must be devoted principally to agricultural use now, at the intensity generally accepted in your area, and have been in agricultural or timber production for at least five of the past seven years. Land inside a city must meet extra tests.
File it with your county's chief appraiser before May 1 of the year you want ag appraisal. A late application can be filed before the appraisal review board approves the records, usually in July, but carries a penalty of 10 percent of the tax difference.
A change to non-agricultural use triggers a rollback tax: the difference between taxes on the ag value and on market value for each of the three previous years the land got the lower appraisal.
