The state workflow is open for property facts, acquisition review, preliminary modeling, and case coordination.
PRELIMINARY SCREENING OPENTexas
Texas
property screening.
Texas screening is open for acquired agricultural property. The review separates improved, fertilized ground from native range and keeps entity-specific tax questions with the client’s tax professional.
TEXAS READINESS
Open for screening.
Evidence controls the outcome.
Every Ash & Acre state uses the same public standard. We can begin the preliminary work; parcel-specific agronomy and the client’s tax professional remain required for any final position.
A full evidence track commonly takes 4–8 weeks after engagement, depending on records, sampling, lab timing, agronomy, and tax review.
Eligible acreage, established fertilization, acquisition evidence, and parcel-specific soil support usually create a stronger reason to investigate.
TEXAS OPPORTUNITY PROFILES
Where the first look
may be most worthwhile.
These are screening priorities—not promises of qualification or deduction size. The property’s facts, evidence, and professional review determine whether an opportunity is supportable.
Irrigated row crops
Corn, cotton, sorghum, vegetables, and other productive ground with documented nutrient management.
Improved fertilized pasture
Deeded pasture with a clear improvement and fertilizer history, not simply acreage used for grazing.
Hay & forage operations
Actively managed fields with repeated inputs, crop removal history, and retained field records.
Nursery, greenhouse & pecan ground
Intensive or permanent-crop operations where parcel and nutrient records are available.
What can support a larger potential opportunity?
More eligible acquired acres, an established nutrient-intensive history, repeated fertilizer or amendment applications, reliable records, and parcel-specific evidence can all matter. The state name or crop label alone does not determine a deduction.
EVIDENCE TO GATHER
Build the file
around the land.
Historical land use, irrigation, fertilizer and lime records, soil tests, field maps, acquisition support, and Texas-appropriate agronomic review.
STATE-SPECIFIC WATCHOUT
Native or unfertilized rangeland should not receive a generic value. Texas franchise-tax and entity questions are outside the preliminary property screen.
Final tax basis, recovery method, timing, filing amount, and tax effect remain decisions for the client’s qualified tax professional.PUBLIC AGRONOMIC REFERENCETexas A&M AgriLife — Soil, Water and Forage Testing ↗
