 AN ACT to amend the tax law, in relation to the eligibility of farmers
 leasing land for the agricultural property tax credit

 The People of the State of New York, represented in Senate and Assem-
 bly, do enact as follows:

 1 Section 1. Paragraphs (a) and (b) of subdivision 11 of section 210-B
 2 of the tax law, as added by section 17 of part A of chapter 59 of the
 3 laws of 2014, are amended to read as follows:
 4 (a) General. In the case of a taxpayer which is an eligible farmer
 5 [or], an eligible farmer [who] which has paid taxes pursuant to a land
 6 contract or an eligible farmer which has a leasehold interest of not
 7 fewer than five continuous years as a lessee of qualified agricultural
 8 property, there shall be allowed a credit for the allowable school
 9 district property taxes. The term "allowable school district property
 10 taxes" means the school district property taxes paid during the taxable
 11 year on qualified agricultural property, subject to the acreage limita-
 12 tion provided in paragraph (e) of this subdivision and the income limi-
 13 tation provided in paragraph (f) of this subdivision.
 14 (b) Eligible farmer. For purposes of this subdivision, the term
 15 "eligible farmer" means a taxpayer whose federal gross income from farm-
 16 ing for the taxable year is at least two-thirds of excess federal gross
 17 income. The term "eligible farmer" also includes a corporation other
 18 than the taxpayer of record for qualified agricultural land which has
 19 paid the school district property taxes on such land or which has a
 20 leasehold interest of not fewer than five continuous years as a lessee
 21 of such land pursuant to a contract for the future purchase of such
 22 land; provided that such corporation has a federal gross income from
 23 farming for the taxable year which is at least two-thirds of excess
 24 federal gross income; and provided further that, in determining such
 25 income eligibility, a taxpayer may, for any taxable year, use the aver-
 26 age of such federal gross income from farming for that taxable year and
 27 such income for the two consecutive taxable years immediately preceding
 28 such taxable year. Excess federal gross income means the amount of

 7 law, paragraph 1 as amended by chapter 315 of the laws of 1998 and para-
