What it does

BACKGROUND. This bill amends provisions in Code chapter providing for a number of development programs administered by the Iowa finance authority (IFA). Subchapter VIII provides for agricultural development programs under the supervision of the agricultural development division and agricultural development board. A number of the agricultural development programs support beginning farmers with low or moderate net worth to acquire agricultural land for farming. The beginning farmer tax credit program creates a tax credit against the tax liability of the owner of agricultural land entering into a lease with a beginning farmer for agricultural land, equipment, and commodities such as crops or livestock.
