Thompson, Consultant Center for Rural Affairs and South Dakota Family Farm Coalition The History of Initiative 300 Corporations and other limited liability business organizations were created to encourage the accumulation of capital to allow for industrial scale enterprises. These structures are granted preferential treatment, including limited liability, and in the case of corporations, certain tax advantages. Limited liability reduces risk for investors who do not directly take part in management and labor functions, and corporate tax rates allow owners to avoid the progressive affect of personal income taxes on large farm profits. This helps corporations attract investment dollars from tax conscious high-income people, not inclined to labor on a farm. Also inherent to the corporate structure is the separation of the economic functions of ownership, management, and labor among different levels of people, leading to a farm structure where farm workers rarely have an opportunity to enjoy the benefits of ownership. When the Nebraska legislature failed to put restrictions on corporate farming, citizens took matters into their own hands. In 1982, they collected enough signatures on an initiative petition to place on the ballot a proposed constitutional amendment banning "non-family farm corporations and syndicates" from owning farmland or engaging in farming or ranching. The proposed amendment received over 56% of the vote. The number 300 was the ballot designation given to the proposed amendment by the Secretary of State at the time and the law has been popularly known as Initiative 300 for nearly sixteen years.
