AI Summary

This bill modifies existing laws regarding taxation on farm equipment, specifically by requiring certain entities and individuals that operate whole goods equipment, such as farms, ranches, or poultry operations, to pay a tax in lieu of the traditional ad valorem tax on their equipment. This new tax will be based on the fair cash value of the equipment and will be evidenced by a tax stamp, which must be retained in a log. The bill also expands the definition of "agricultural operation" and clarifies what constitutes "entities and individuals that operate whole goods equipment." The tax will be imposed on these entities and individuals on a specific date related to when they are required to pay other taxes, and the tax stamps will be purchased from the county treasurer. This legislation is set to become effective on January 1, 2027.
