Conservation easements have grown in popularity in recent years, partly due to the impactful tax benefits available to the donor. A conservation easement is a restriction on the use of land, voluntarily granted by the landowner to a conservation organization or to a government sponsored entity. The general rule for permanent conservation easement donations is that the property owner can take a charitable contribution tax deduction on their return for the difference in the fair market value of the land before the conservation easement and after the conservation easement. Currently, the donor can take a conservation easement charitable deduction of up to 50% of their taxable income in a given year. Should the value of the conservation easement charitable deduction exceed this taxable income threshold in the first year (because of lower than expected earnings or simply because of the size of the deduction), the taxpayer can use the remaining deduction over a fifteen-year carryforward period (no carryback is allowed and the same 50% taxable income limit applies during the carryforward period)...

The baseline to attain a certain level in business, needs additional fund which cannot always be obtained from the company’s current income. Moreover, in many cases it is impractical, and it is much more rational to finance new investment projects from external sources. As has been repeatedly highlighted in reports from the World Bank and other respected financial institutions, the lack of long-term business financing is holding back global economic growth, inhibiting important investment projects. Long-term loans are considered one of the safest instruments for financing large projects. Borrowed funds often help companies achieve impressive success and overcome difficult periods in their activities...

This is the second of a two-part series focusing on tax savings, planning opportunities, and other tax considerations for year-end 2019. Part I, published on AgFuse in November of 2019, focused on planning opportunities for farmers with higher than expected earnings in 2019 while Part II focuses on tax planning opportunities for farmers with lower than expected current year performance. Farmers tend to think that tax planning opportunities are only available in high-income years or when they close on a big transaction (selling your property, selling a large amount of stock for a capital gain, etc). However, just as tax planning is essential in those situations, it is also critical to consider tax planning strategies during a down year... If the farmer is not able to adjust the timing of revenue, a farmer who uses the cash basis of accounting could also defer expenses (including any potential conservation easement deduction) to 2020 to reduce the amount of the current-year loss...
