AGRICULTURAL ASSESSMENT

WRITTEN LEASE AFFIDAVIT FOR RENTED LAND

INSTRUCTIONS

Agricultural land which has been used as a single operation for the production of crops, livestock, or

livestock products during the preceding two years but whose production does not independently satisfy the

average gross sales requirement of Article 25AA of the Agriculture and Markets Law may nevertheless

qualify for an agricultural assessment if the land is rented to another party for a minimum of five (5) years

for use in conjunction with other land which qualifies for an agricultural assessment. If the renting party

does not receive an agricultural assessment, side two of this form is necessary to certify to the assessor that

the lessee’s land would qualify for an agricultural assessment. A copy of the relevant written lease or this

affidavit attesting to the existence of the written lease must be attached to the application for an agricultural

assessment (form RP-305 or RP-305-r). Applicants should file this affidavit only if they have completed all

of item 7 of form RP-305 or item 3(g) of form RP-305-r.
