New incentive to farm in Iowa?

Posted:

New incentives could have more people getting into the Iowa farming game. 

Two young Republican farmers have introduced a bill that would expand the current tax credit program to beginning farmers.  The state now provides 6 million dollars in tax credits to retiring farmers who lease their land to beginners.  The bill would double that amount and also offer tax breaks for beginners.
