Sod farms and floriculture where flowers are produced directly in the soil generally require the type of soil similar to any other irrigated crop and should be valued according to the soil type. Values are determined based on guidelines set forth in VALUATION OF AGRICULTURAL LANDS found later in this section. Tree farms, orchard operations with fruit trees or vineyards and nursery operations with trees and shrubs are unique in that the products grown can be produced on land which is not adapted for crops which require tillage and cultivation. However, the income produced by the landlord is equivalent to a high level of irrigated land. The Natural Resource Conservation Service (NRCS), through its soil surveys, distinguishes the soil in these types of operations as soil that is classed as uncultivatible, but through management practices is now producing a product, and should be designated as a class of land commensurate with the type of farming practice being initiated, e.g Irrigated land if it is an irrigated operation. Therefore, it would be proper to place these types of operations in the top irrigated class within the already developed irrigated formula, or if the operation is non-irrigated the top dryland class or grazing class. Horticulture operations are described below. Tree Farms Tree farms are typically agricultural operations which plant, cultivate and harvest trees for sale on a wholesale or retail basis. Inputs to the lands, e.g.fertilizer, pesticides or other cultivation activities, are indicators the land is being used as a farm as defined by 39-1-102(3.5), C.R.S. Christmas tree operations generally qualify as tree farms if the harvesting, replanting, and cultivation is done on a regular basis. In some instances the land may also receive periodic inputs such as fertilizer and pesticides. Tree farms should generally receive agricultural land designation if they plant and grow trees in the soil, cultivate and fertilize the trees, and harvest and sell the trees on a regular basis. The land must also be used for the primary purpose of obtaining a monetary profit as stated in 39-1-102(1.6)(axl), C.R.S. Commercial Nurseries Commercial nurseries sell live plant material such as sod, trees, flowers or shrubs to commercial landscaping companies and/or the public. Incorporated within the nursery may be land used to grow seedlings or small plants prior to packaging them for sale. Land within the nursery where the sod, trees, flowers or shrubs grow directly in the ground would be subject to classification and valuation as agricultural land. 15-DIVISION-AS PUB ARL 31-89 Revised 1-99 Apr 15 04 11 : 08a p. 5 5 General provisions 394-102 • 39-1-102.

Sod farms and floriculture where flowers are produced directly in the soil generally require the type of soil similar to any other irrigated crop and should be valued according to the soil type. Values are determined based on guidelines set forth in VALUATION OF AGRICULTURAL LANDS found later in this section. Tree farms, orchard operations with fruit trees or vineyards and nursery operations with trees and shrubs are unique in that the products grown can be produced on land which is not adapted for crops which require tillage and cultivation. However, the income produced by the landlord is equivalent to a high level of irrigated land. The Natural Resource Conservation Service (NRCS), through its soil surveys, distinguishes the soil in these types of operations as soil that is classed as uncuttivatible, but through management practices is now producing a product, and should be designated as a class of land commensurate with the type of farming practice being initiated, e.g. irrigated land if it is an irrigated operation. Therefore, it would be proper to place these types of operations in the top irrigated class within the already developed irrigated formula, or if the operation is non-irrigated the top dryland class or grazing class. Horticulture operations are described below. Tree Farms Tree farms are typically agricultural operations which plant, cultivate and harvest trees for sale on a wholesale or retail basis. Inputs to the lands, e.g. fertilizer, pesticides or other cultivation activities, are indicators the land is being used as a farm as defined by 39-1-102(3.5), C.R.S. Christmas tree operations generally qualify as tree farms if the harvesting, replanting, and cultivation is done on a regular basis. In some instances the land may also receive periodic inputs such as fertilizer and pesticides. Tree farms should generally receive agricultural land designation if they plant and grow trees in the soil, cultivate and fertilize the trees, and harvest and sell the trees on a regular basis. The land must also be used for the primary purpose of obtaining a monetary profit as stated in 39-1-102(1.6)(a)(1), C.R.S. Commercial Nurseries Commercial nurseries sell live plant material such as sod, trees, flowers or shrubs to commercial landscaping companies and/or the public. Incorporated within the nursery may be land used to grow seedlings or small plants prior to packaging them for sale. Land within the nursery where the sod, trees, flowers or shrubs grow directly in the ground would be subject to classification and valuation as agricultural land. 15-DIVISION-AS PUB ARL 31-89 Revised 1-99 Kitayama Bros Inc.
