• when “[t]he condemning authority chose to condemn a farm for its use,” it should “bear the cost of such condemnation including tax obligations that are imposed as a matter of law”
• “unrealistic” to expect condemnee to continue farming the condemned property into the “planting season” when the condemnor’s “course of conduct” such as obtaining a zoning change and entering the property for soil testing, prevented such farming
• “the narrow holding of Gardiner applies since “change from farm use to a public purpose” for condemnation which “prompts the imposition of roll-back taxes, requires that the burden of such change be borne by the condemnor”
