“One of the biggest anticipated changes that could impact farms across the U.S. is the possible change to the tax policy under a second Trump administration.”
“While anticipated changes continued to be weighed by political analysts, one agricultural tax expert thinks farmers can count on one major thing.
“I think we’re definitely going to see no tax increases. That’s for sure,” says Paul Neiffer, Farm CPA and contributor to AgWeb.”
“According to Neiffer, 100% bonus depreciation could also make a comeback under Trump.
“We think, perhaps, 100% bonus depreciation might be coming back for farmers,” says Neiffer. “When they buy equipment or buildings, farm buildings, etc., they’ll be able to deduct 100% of that in the year of purchase.”
Neiffer points out farmers need to be careful and make sure they optimize their depreciation related to their debt, but the idea of 100% bonus depreciation would be a welcome change for farmers.”
