HILL COUNTY APPRAISAL DISTRICT AGRICULTURAL LAND QUALIFICATION GUIDELINES

AGRICULTURAL VALUATION

This is a special valuation for land that is devoted primarily to agricultural production.  Agricultural or productivity value is based on the land’s capacity to produce crops or livestock instead of its value on the real estate market.

Agricultural valuation (1-d-1) is the same as “open space” valuation.  The Texas Constitution provides for the special valuation of “open space land devoted to farm or ranch purposes.”  In other words, undeveloped non-agricultural land does not qualify.
