The 2017 Agriculture Workforce Housing Tax Credit Application is now available. The AWHTC gives state income tax credits for costs related to construction, acquisition, or rehabilitation of agriculture workforce housing. This credit can be claimed for up to 50% of eligible costs. $7.25M is reserved for this year, with a $750,000 “soft set-aside” for on-farm projects which remains as restricted to this purpose until June 30, 2017.
