Agribusiness Blog

Most of us know that Congress limited the state and local tax deduction (SALT) to $10,000 starting in 2018. Certain House and Senate members from high tax states such as New Jersey, New York and California have complained about this.

On Friday, several staff from the Nichols Accounting Group (who sponsored the session) took me on a fishing trip to Hells Canyon on the Snake River. First, it takes you close to two and half hours to drive to the river. Idaho Power built three dams (Brownlee, Oxbow and Hells Canyon) on the Snake River upstream before the main entrance to Hells Canyon.
