Section 1
Type of landowner: For the purpose of this form, there are two terms to distinguish the type of landowner.
Owner-Producer: A landowner who is the agricultural producer utilizing the land in his/her agricultural operation.
Also known as owner-user or owner-operator.
Owner-Lessor: A landowner who leases the land to either: 1) an end-user tenant for use in the tenant’s agricultural
operation, or 2) a sandwich leaseholder tenant who subleases the land to a subtenant agricultural user.
Which scenario fits your application?
The Agricultural application form has the flexibility to be used under the following scenarios. Please mark the
appropriate checkbox. In the case of Scenario 3, #2 may also apply.
1. An owner-producer’s application on a new agricultural property unit, i.e. all the land in the operation.
2. An owner-lessor’s application on property used in a tenant’s or subtenant’s agricultural operation.
3. An application prompted by an ownership change on an existing agricultural property to maintain the
agricultural classification.
4. An owner-producer’s application on newly added property to his/her existing agricultural operation.
Section 2
Introduction: Upon receiving an application, one of the assessor’s foremost considerations is to examine
whether a property meets the definition of “agricultural real property”, as set forth in A.R.S. § 42-12151 for
property tax purposes. This definition specifies eleven different agricultural property types, each pertaining to the
entire real property unit or “the whole”, meaning all of the land being utilized in a particular agricultural economic
operation (i.e. a farm, ranch, or agri-business).
Thus, it is important for the assessor to know what the “whole” agricultural property unit is. As such, you are
encouraged to complete a brief section pertaining to the entire operation overall. For an owner-producer,
complete the Owner’s Agricultural Operation block at the bottom of this page. For an owner-lessor, complete the
Tenant’s Agricultural Operation block on the Agricultural Lease Abstract form.
Whole or a Portion?
If the land listed on your application is a portion of an agricultural property unit, the information you provide
pertaining to the “whole” property unit is imperative. Recognize that if the assessor is unable to gain sufficient
knowledge of “the whole” in order to test whether it meets the definition of “agricultural real property”, it then
follows that a portion would not be approved for agricultural classification.
The following question pertains to all the land listed on your Application in Parts A, B & C:
Does this land represent the “whole” agricultural property unit, or a portion of the agricultural property unit?
Check the appropriate box.
