Government stated that the reason for the tax was because of rich people buying up land to avoid inheritance tax. So, stop people doing that through other legal methods, not ill thought out taxation that is just used to help the government balance the books while not cutting 'other' budgets. It is the rich property developers that have caused the land values to increase to a point where many of the family farms fall into the taxable category. Simple solution is to waive inheritance tax on land and machinery bequeathed for farming provided that it is used for farming for the next 50 years and not sold to property developers. If not adhered to then levy Capital Gains Tax and Inheritance Tax at an exorbitant level on the individual selling it for development.
