Is land enrolled in the Conservation Reserve Program (CRP) considered an agricultural use?
Chapter Tax 18.05(1) lists enrollment in the Conservation Reserve Program as an agricultural use. However, land removed from the CRP program may now be incompatible with agricultural use (i.e. wooded) and may need to be reclassified and valued at its appropriate assessed value according to WI Statutes. For further information regarding what programs qualify for use-value assessment, see Program and Eligibility for Use-Value Assessment.
