How does land used for agriculture qualify for a special method of valuation?

Depending on whether the county assessor agrees, there must be a bona fide primary agricultural use of the land and the capacity to produce agricultural products. The property owner must initially apply for this classification. Refer to Section 7-36-20 NMSA 1978
