Farmer and Rancher Tax Resource



USDA Risk Management Agency (RMA) has introduced a new website - Rural Tax Education - that provides farmers and ranchers, other agricultural producers and Extension educators with a source for agriculturally related income and self-employment tax information.

Tax issues are important for agricultural operations because income and self-employment taxes are a major cost, and also because more and more USDA programs are being linked to a producer’s federal income tax return.

Also on the website is a Tax Guide For Owners and Operators of Small and Medium Size Farms, produced by Land Grant University Tax Education Foundation, INC. through a grant from the USDA Risk Management Agency.

Check out their website at http://www.ruraltax.org/for a FREE resource.
