House Estate Tax Vote Could
Increase Taxes For Farmers
WASHINGTON, D.C. The
House of Representatives, June
18, rejected a measure to reform
estate taxes and, instead, passed
a measure to permanently repeal
the tax in 2011. National Farmers
Union said the House action
could actually increase taxes for
family farmers.
NFU President Dave Freder
ickson explained that under the
House repeal proposal, heirs to
moderately sized estates could
face capital gains tax liabilities.
“This legislation would establish
a large new tax on American
families that have more modest
means and that would never be
subject to the estate tax,” he said.
A tax increase will likely result
from the loss of the “stepped-up”
basis clause contained in the cur

rent estate tax statute, Frederick
son said. Current law adjusts the
value of assets based on current
values rather than original costs.
Contrary to the rhetoric of repeal
advocates, current law also as
sures that double taxation rarely
applies to farm operations that
are transferred from one
generation to the next. These
benefits to family farmers and
ranchers could be lost if estate
tax repeal is enacted.
Permanent repeal would result
in nearly $1 trillion in lost federal
revenues over the next 20 years,
which Frederickson said would
create higher budget deficits and
reduced funding for services.
Loan Fund (CED).
SBF offers up to $200,000 for
land, building, machinery, equip
ment, and working capital. If
filed within 9 months of a natural
disaster, such as the 2002
drought, the interest rate is 2 per
cent. MELF offers up to $500,000
for machinery and equipment.
The interest rate varies from 3-5
percent. CED offers funding for
retail and commercial operations
in distressed areas for up to
$200,000 or 50 percent of the cost
of the program. The interest rate
for CED is 2 percent.
For all of the programs, appli
cants must contact their local
economic development office to
begin the loan process. A list of
these offices is available at
