What this form is
This application asks a landowner to describe the parcel, agricultural uses, acreage, sales, and other land owned or rented for the farm operation. The form says to file annually for each separately assessed parcel; an approved application may be renewed in later years if parcel information has not changed. A Soil Group Worksheet and soil map are required unless the assessor already has accurate copies on file.
Who needs it
A landowner seeking an agricultural assessment for an eligible parcel must file an application with the local assessor.
How to submit it
File the application with the city, town, or village assessor; if the village assesses the property, file with both the town and village assessor. Include a stamped, self-addressed envelope to receive notice of the decision.
