I really liked this article. Shows how messy it is to accurately tax large landowners trying to dodge inheritance tax by buying farmland, while not harming actual family farmers.
“Some 56% of farmland bought in 2023 was sold to landowners who were not working farmers. The revenue per acre is too low to warrant the purchase, unless you are extremely wealthy and are avoiding inheritance tax”
