BILL NUMBER:S2909 TITLE OF BILL: An act to amend the tax law, in relation to establishing an agricultural crop loss personal income tax credit PURPOSE: The bill establishes a refundable personal income tax credit to farmers for the loss of certain crops as a result of frost for the 2012 taxable year. SUMMARY OF SPECIFIC PROVISIONS: Section 1. Amends Section 606 of the Tax Law by adding a new subsection (uu) which establishes an agricultural crop loss refundable personal income tax credit to farmers for the loss or damage of certain agricul- tural crops as a result of frost injury in 2012. To be eligible for the credit, a taxpayer must derive at least two-thirds of reported federal gross income from farming for the taxable year. The amount of the credit is equal to thirty-five percent of the average value of the unit of production for New York State as reported by the USDA National Agricul- tural Statistics Service for 2011, multiplied by a taxpayer's acreage in production, including newly planted acreage, for the 2012 growing season. Subsection (2) specifies that if the amount of the credit exceeds the taxpayer's tax for such year, the excess shall be treated as an overpay- ment of tax to be credited or refunded without having accrued interest.
