Clarifies that solar farms are not considered agricultural operations for tax purposes in West Virginia.

West Virginia SB73 amends the state code to clarify that solar generation facilities are not considered agricultural operations, regardless of their height or elevation. This means that land using solar panels to produce electricity for commercial sale or other non-farming purposes is not classified as farm property. The bill ensures that a farm's classification does not change if solar panels are installed on farm buildings for agricultural use. This clarification affects property appraisal and taxation for solar farms in the state.
