After years of advocacy from Ohio Farm Bureau and its partners, the Ohio Department of Taxation announced today that it will address inaccurate woodland calculations in the Current Agricultural Use Value program. These changes should result in significant tax savings for many woodland owners.

After more than 10 years of advocating for accurate woodland inputs in the CAUV formula, the Ohio Department of Taxation has accepted the Ohio Forestry Association’s (OFA) data regarding land clearing costs and updated those inputs in the formula.
