SALES AND USE TAX APPLICATION TO FARMING, TIMBER HARVESTING, NURSERY OPERATIONS, AND AGRITOURISM
Dear Tennessee Taxpayer,
In 2007, the Tennessee General Assembly enacted a revision of the exemptions and reduced rates of sales and use
tax for farmers, timber harvesters, and nursery operators effective January 1, 2008. As before, not all purchases by
farmers, timber harvesters, or nursery operators are exempt from the sales or use tax. This booklet is designed to
help farmers, timber harvesters, nursery operator, and dealers from whom they buy, to understand the scope of
exemptions and reduced rates, the purchases that remain taxable, and how effectively to administer these tax
provisions.
It is imperative that the reader understand that the information provided is general in nature. The excerpts from the
sales tax law are through the 2007 legislative session. The opinions expressed here are informal and do not
constitute a revenue or letter ruling pursuant to the provisions of Tennessee Code Annotated Section 67-1-109.
Future amendments, court decisions, regulation charges, or other factors could change the opinions expressed
herein.
