Cattle Sale

Archive for the ‘cattle sale’ Category

I’m part of my schools ffa and we’re supposed to be looking for cattle-steer sales/auctions. i live in california’s bay area so i’m trying to keep it close to home. could you give me a link or something?

Try dvauction.com, they broadcast auctions online from all over the country.

I am looking for properties in 3 categories: 1. Forestry, 2. Cattle, 3. Large acreage at a low price per acre (may not be agricultural).

try http://fish4sale.com just put in your chosen area and you should come up with some properties. the trouble would be then which one should you go for. you could also look for a direct land seller that will sell to you or first hand sale that comes to you at trade prices. I found one but it is in England so no good to you at the moment. Good luck

it’s an oil painting of cattle rustlers changing a brand, with a posse approaching in the distance. i’ve looked at it with a magnifying glass, but can’t find an artists name. any websites that specialize in western paintings/artists?

keep searching…

Looking for a sale barn to unload cattle while staying overnight traveling.

based on previous answer, check out this link.

We have rented the land out the last five years for cattle. Prior to that, we raised cattle on it. Are there any tax breaks for agriculture land or can your cost be adjusted?

Unless you also occupied the land as your principal residence the sale will generate a capital gains tax if you sell it for more than your adjusted basis. Since you have rented it out for 5 years now it probaly won’t qualify for the exclusion on sale of a personal residence even if there is a home situated on it.

Since you have owned it for more than one year it’s treated as a long-term capital gain and is taxed at a lower rate. The rate depends upon your marginal rate. If your marginal rate is 15% or less the tax rate is 5%. If your marginal rate is higher than 15%, the rate is 15%.

There are no breaks on the sale of ag land as far as Federal income taxes are concerned. Your state may treat it differently so you’ll have to check with your state’s tax authorities.

The most common break on ag lands is for property taxes where the value of the land for property tax purposes is pegged at it’s income generating ability not the (usually higher) fair market value of the raw land.
