"This law passed during the 2005 session of the Florida Legislature and became effective on July 1, 2005. The law expands existing provisions that only offered partial tax exemptions (3%) for farm equipment. The new law exempts agricultural producers from any taxes and discretionary surtaxes associated with the sale, purchase, lease, or rental of certain new and used power-driven farm equipment

To secure the exemption, the purchaser, renter, or lessee of the equipment needs to provide the seller (owner) with a signed written statement certifying that the equipment purchased will only be used “on a farm or in a forest in plowing, planting, cultivating, or harvesting crops or products as produced by agricultural industries, or for fi re prevention and suppression work with respect to such crops or products” (Florida Department of Revenue 2005). Appendix A at the end of this publication provides a sample statement that was prepared by the Florida State Department of Revenue."
