South Dakota is eliminating the Agricultural Land Assessment Implementation and Oversight Advisory Task Force and shifting its duties to the Department of Revenue, which will now directly receive recommendations and report on agricultural land values instead of relying on a separate advisory committee. The Department of Revenue will continue to set rules for how agricultural land is valued, including procedures for determining income values based on eight-year crop data averages.
The amendment eliminates the Agricultural Land Assessment Implementation and Oversight Advisory Task Force and redirects its functions so that qualified entities contracting with the Department of Revenue now submit recommendations directly to the department by September first each year instead of to the task force. This change streamlines the agricultural land assessment process by removing an intermediary advisory body and consolidating recommendation submissions.
