Broader farm tax breaks, stricter applications

Oregon expands farm-use property tax eligibility to land used to prepare products or by-products raised there for people or animals. Preparation includes cleaning, treating, cutting, pressing, sorting, and packaging. Land beneath qualifying farm-product processing facilities, plus adjacent land used with them, also qualifies regardless of zoning or processing floor space. Approved facilities that process farm crops into biofuel as a commercial activity tied to farm use also qualify. Owners seeking assessment for processing-facility land in exclusive farm-use zones must apply to the county assessor by April 1 of the first assessment year sought. They must provide reasonably required information and attach a sworn or affirmed statement that the application is true. Outside exclusive farm-use zones, applications must show that the facility meets the legal definition.
