Additional Section 180 Information

Whether you have purchased or inherited farmland recently, you may qualify for specific tax deductions related to the soil nutrient load on your cropland, farmland or ranchland.

The Agronomic Consulting Group supports farming operation of agricultural properties who are often experienced with tax dedications related to capital items, however with the IRS Section 180 tax deduction, operations may not be as familiar with soil fertility related deductions as well.

IRS Section 180 allows landowners to treat the residual fertility present in the soil at the time of purchase as a deductible cost. Though the deduction should be filed during the year of land purchase, landowners may be able to file an amended tax return for a previous tax year.

§180. Expenditures by farmers for fertilizer, etc.
(a) In general A taxpayer engaged in the business of farming may
elect to treat as expenses which are not chargeable to capital account
expenditures (otherwise chargeable to capital account) which are paid
or incurred by him during the taxable year for the purchase or
acquisition of fertilizer, lime, ground limestone, marl, or other materials
to enrich, neutralize, or condition land used in farming, or for the
application of such materials to such land. The expenditures so
treated shall be allowed as a deduction.
(b) Land used in farming
For purposes of subsection (a), the term ‘‘land used in farming’’
means land used (before or simultaneously with the expenditures
described in subsection (a)) by the taxpayer or his tenant for the
production of crops, fruits, or other agricultural products or for the
sustenance of livestock.
(c) Election
The election under subsection (a) for any taxable year shall be made
within the time prescribed by law (including extensions thereof) for
filing the return for such taxable year. Such election shall be made in
such manner as the Secretary may by regulations prescribe. Such
election may not be revoked except with the consent of the Secretary.
