- NYS Agricultural Assessment Program work will begin January 1, 2020. Through the Agricultural Districts law, property tax bills can be reduced for land used for agriculture. Eligible landowners must submit an Agricultural Assessment Application to their town assessor by the taxable status date. In most towns, this is March 1st, but it is suggested to check with each town assessor to confirm. GCSWCD will complete the first step in the application process by classifying all farmland that will be enrolled in the program by soil productivity. A soil map will be developed, along with the “Soil Group Worksheet,” which is used to define the acreage of each soil productivity group. For more information about the program or to have farmland classified by productivity click here or contact Michelle by e-mail or phone (518-622-3620).
