Agricultural uses definition

Agricultural uses means those activities defined by a State’s farm or ranch land protection program, or, where no program exists, by the State agricultural use tax assessment program. However, if NRCS determines that a State definition of agricultural use is so broad that an included use would constitute a violation of Federal law or degrade soils, the agricultural nature of the land, or the related natural resources, NRCS reserves the right to impose greater deed restrictions on the property to be subject to an agricultural land easement. These deed restrictions would narrow the State definition of agricultural use in order to meet Federal law or to protect soils, the agricultural nature of the land, or related natural resources.
Agricultural uses means the use of waters for stock watering, irrigation, and other farm
Agricultural uses means the cultivation, maintenance, or harvest of plants, animals, or other organisms for the sale or other commercial use of such organisms or products made with or derived from those organisms.
