I have a farm in Ohio and got a Sales Tax Exemption. I have recently downgraded to a hobby farm regarding my state and federal taxes. May I still claim the sales tax exemption for my hobby farm? Thanks!

Charles,
This statement comes from Ohio State's Ag Law Bulletin titled "Ohio's Agricultural Sales Tax Exemption Laws", dated October 2021:
"Remember that if the Department of Taxation challenges
a sales tax exemption you received, you must
document that you file (or will file, if you’re
new) a Schedule F to qualify as a “for-profit
farm” eligible for the sales tax exemption."
