				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://www.midcountycoop.com/wp-content/uploads/tax.jpg"><img class="alignleft  wp-image-615" title="tax" src="http://www.midcountycoop.com/wp-content/uploads/tax.jpg" alt="" width="240" height="130" /></a>Over the past several years the State of Minnesota has stepped-up tax audits as the Department of Revenue has determined that for each dollar spent on enforcement of tax collections, especially sales/use taxes, they can recover several dollars of taxes along with significant penalties and interest. Mid-County Coop sells an array of products to the agricultural market, that when used in the direct production of an agricultural crop or product that is intended for sale, are tax exempt. We will be updating our files over the next couple of months to maintain our compliance with the tax exempt rules. We will be sending out a tax exemption certificate which will need to be completed and returned to continue purchasing products on a tax exempt basis. We are required to charge sales tax if we do not have a completed ST-3 Certificate of Exemption on file. We have posted several Minnesota Department of Revenue Sales Tax fact sheets on our website, www.midcountycoop.com, for your review. Fuel Taxes “Farm Gas” – We supply gas for farm purposes which does not have Minnesota fuel tax included in the price. This product is tax exempt if it is used exclusively for production or processing of an agricultural product for sale. “Off-road Dyed Diesel” – This type of product is exempt only if used in the direct production or processing of agricultural products, all other “off-road dyed diesel” is subject to Minnesota sales/use taxes. In the event that either “farm gas” or “off-road dyed diesel” are purchased for allowed purposes but used in total or part for purposes not directly related to the production or processing of an agricultural product for sale, you are responsible for paying “use tax” on the quantity used for nonagricultural purposes to the Department of Revenue (i.e.: lawn mowing, chain saws, ATVs, snowmobiles, outboard motors, on-road vehicles, etc.). LP/Propane is tax exempt if used for residential heating and there are agricultural uses that are also tax exempt, but heating for a shop or garage is taxable. It is your responsibility to determine if any of your LP/propane usage is taxable. You would need to report and pay any “use tax” directly to the Minnesota Department of Revenue.</p>
