Is there a minimum number of acres or cattle needed related to livestock/animals to qualify?
A6. The Webb County Appraisal District (WCAD) Agricultural Advisory Board has established a 35 acres per animal (example cow) unit for guideline but, the intensity of use will determine the number of acres typically needed to make the operation feasible for different crops, cattle and livestocks that is common in the local area and therefore the minimum number of acres needed to qualify will change for different situations. The State Property Tax Code does not have a set amount of acreage or minimum number of cattle in order to qualify for Agriculture valuation.
