3 34 EXPLANATION
3 35 This bill provides a livestock production tax credit not to
4 1 exceed $5,000 per livestock operation. The credit is based
4 2 upon the amount of corn or corn equivalents used by hog
4 3 operations, beef (including dairy) operations, and poultry
4 4 operations. The amount of the credit is computed by
4 5 multiplying 10 cents times the amount of corn or corn
4 6 equivalents consumed by the livestock in the production
4 7 operation. In addition, a taxpayer may only receive for a tax
4 8 year $5,000 in total credits under the bill.
4 9 The bill also repeals the agricultural land tax credit and
4 10 the family farm tax credit applicable to property taxes due
4 11 and payable in fiscal years beginning on or after July 1,
4 12 1996.
4 13 The sections of the bill relating to the livestock
4 14 production tax credit apply retroactively to January 1, 1996,
4 15 for income tax years beginning on or after that date.
