Agricultural / Wildlife Management

In Texas, the 1-d-1 Agricultural Use Appraisal, commonly known as the “Ag Exemption”, is a valuable property tax management tool for landowners who are committed to agricultural production.

This exemption allows property owners to maintain a lower tax rate by dedicating their land to qualifying agricultural activities, such as farming, ranching, or timber production, rather than being taxed at the typically higher market value.

By aligning property tax valuations with the productive value of the land, the 1-d-1 exemption supports Texas’s agricultural economy and helps preserve working lands across the state.

The Wildlife Management Exemption in Texas is an extension of the 1-d-1 Agricultiral Use Appraisal and is a valuable incentive for landowners seeking to preserve the natural habitat while receiving property tax benefits.

The Wildlife Management Exemption enables property owners to maintain a reduced tax rate by dedicating their land to wildlife conservation rather than typical agricultural uses.
