This study catalogues the treatment of farmers within the tax and social security systems of a large number of OECD countries.
This publication examines the treatment of farmers within the tax and social security systems of 24 OECD countries, including in relation to income taxes, taxes on property, goods and services, preferential treatment in social security contributions or entitlements. It considers the conceptual basis for deciding what constitutes a concession conferring financial benefit to the farmer, and estimates of the values of those concessions are reported in the few cases where they have been found. It assesses the likely impact of measures in distorting production and trade, and how they may affect structure and asset values in the sector.
U.S. Agricultural Response to Income Taxation is the first extensive look at how income tax policy affects agriculture in the U.S. Surveying a significant body of research, Carman documents the effects of federal income tax on production and investment decisions in agriculture, farm size, and, prior to 1986's tax reform act, tax-shelter investments by non-farmers. Guiding a reader through tax and farm policy with helpful flow charts and graphs, Carman discusses the impact of income taxes on land prices; decisions regarding machinery and equipment, orchards, and livestock; management practices that take advantage of cash accounting; capital gains tax and depreciation provisions; and tax equity. He also examines the interactions of income taxes with social security taxes, estate and gift taxes, and corporate income taxes. This book concludes with a timely review of how various tax proposals, from a fiat tax to a consumption tax, might affect farmers and agriculture in the U.S.
