Why this cycle picked up Form 331

This is the recurring "GovSchema Standard Research" cycle (GOV-1917). The prior cycle (GOV-1910, Hilfsblatt A — kaufmännische Buchführung, Form 329) left Hilfsblatt B (Form 330, an agricultural questionnaire) and Hilfsblatt G (Form 331, agricultural/forestry) as the two remaining CH-ZH companion-schedule backlog candidates, both explicitly deferred at the time as "open, unscreened-in-depth" candidates. This cycle screened both against the same zh.ch "Formulare für Selbständigerwerbende" listing every prior CH-ZH cycle has used, and pursued only Form 331 (Hilfsblatt G) — the narrower, simplified-eligibility variant of the two, available only to smaller operations (Talzone up to 8 ha of agricultural utilized area, or hill/mountain zones up to 20 Rindergrossvieheinheiten, each with a limited scope of special branches), which lets a qualifying filer report from summed receipts rather than from full bookkeeping or the more elaborate Fragebogen (questionnaire) structure that Hilfsblatt B itself uses. Both forms are 4 pages, so page count alone did not decide the scope call; Hilfsblatt G was chosen because its own content (a single letter-lettered Ziffer 1-3 income/expense computation) is self-contained and fully specified by this cycle's own primary source plus a dedicated companion Wegleitung (see below), whereas Hilfsblatt B's own structure branches into two materially different computation paths depending on whether the filer reports "mit Buchhaltungsabschluss" (Ziffern 1, 2, 4, 5) or "mit Aufzeichnungen" (Ziffern 3, 4, 5) — a larger, structurally-forked future candidate better scoped as its own dedicated cycle. This document closes the Form 331 gap specifically, leaving Hilfsblatt B (Form 330) as the sole remaining CH-ZH companion-schedule backlog candidate. It does not open a new vertical or jurisdiction — Switzerland remains at 2 of 6 verticals (DMV, Taxes) — but it completes CH-ZH's companion-schedule backlog down to a single remaining item.

Sources examined

• Document (id, version): ch/zh/sta/hilfsblatt-g / 1.0.0
• Spec version: GovSchema 0.3.0
• Authority: Kanton Zürich — Finanzdirektion, Kantonales Steueramt Zürich (same authority as the main return and its nine other companion schedules; this form's own printed issuer is "StA Form 331").
• Primary source: https://www.zh.ch/content/dam/zhweb/bilder-dokumente/themen/steuern-finanzen/steuern/natuerlichepersonen/jahrunabhaengig/selbstaendig-erwerbende/331_hig_zh_2020_def.pdf — "StA Form 331 (2020) 12.20 — Hilfsblatt G für Land- und Forstwirtschaft," fetched directly this cycle (HTTP 200, %PDF-1.5, 95,074 bytes — exact byte-for-byte match against the size stated by the issue brief — 4 pages per the PDF's own /Count 4, no /Encrypt) from the "Formulare für Selbständigerwerbende" listing on the same zh.ch tax-forms hub page every prior CH-ZH cycle has used (https://www.zh.ch/de/steuern-finanzen/steuern/steuern-natuerliche-personen/steuererklaerung-natuerliche-personen.html). A byte-level scan of the raw PDF for the literal strings /AcroForm and /Widget returned zero matches for both — confirming this is a flat, non-AcroForm print/reference PDF, the same shape as all nine of its CH-ZH sibling schedules.
• Listing-page label check (supersession cutoff). The raw listing page HTML was re-fetched directly and the download link's own on-page label text (not just the filename) was inspected: "Hilfsblatt G für Land- und Forstwirtschaft," 4 Seiten, Deutsch, 90 KB — with no "bis <year>" cutoff qualifier, the same technique the GOV-1910 cycle documented and used to confirm currency. For comparison, the same listing page's superseded 2021-dated copy of Form 328 is explicitly labelled "... bis 2023," while the current 2024-edition copy of Form 328 and Forms 329-331 all carry no such qualifier — confirming Form 331 is zh.ch's own current, unsuperseded edition despite its 2020-dated filename (331_hig_zh_2020_def.pdf).
• A residual discrepancy found and disclosed: two different print-date stamps for "the same" Form 331. The standalone PDF fetched directly above carries the footer stamp "StA Form 331 (2020) 12.20." The companion 2025 Wegleitung (StA Form 332, see below) embeds its own illustrative facsimile of this exact same page 1 — same header fields, same Ziffer 1.1/1.2 table layout, same footnote text about Art. 66 BGBB — but its footer stamp reads "StA Form 331 (2024) 12.25" instead. This cycle inspected both facsimiles side by side (via independent pdfjs-dist re-extraction of each PDF) and found the field layout, Ziffer numbering, and footnote wording are textually identical between the two; nothing in the Wegleitung's own embedded facsimile implies a substantive content change, so this cycle treats the "(2024) 12.25" stamp as a periodic print-run reprint bundled into the newer Wegleitung rather than evidence of a supersede-worthy content revision to Form 331 itself. This is disclosed explicitly, rather than silently resolved, so a future re-verification cycle can re-check whether zh.ch ever republishes Form 331 itself under a newer standalone filename (the same kind of currency check the GOV-1910 cycle's own "stale filename" technique performs, applied here to a second, independently-discovered angle of the same underlying question).
• A note on this form's year-independent URL, matching its Hilfsblatt-A siblings. Like Forms 328/329, this form is hosted at a year-independent .../jahrunabhaengig/selbstaendig-erwerbende/... path and its cover page carries a standalone filer-entered "Jahr" box rather than a year baked into the title. This document accordingly models the "Jahr" box as its own required jahr field, for the same reason disclosed in Form 328/329's own VERIFICATION.md records.
• Sibling form identified but deliberately not pursued this cycle: the same listing page also links Form 330 ("Hilfsblatt B Fragebogen für Land- und Forstwirtschaft," 4 pages, 110 KB) — see "Why this cycle picked up Form 331" above for the scope decision to defer it.
• Companion Wegleitung #1 (main return's own 2025 Wegleitung), examined first and found to defer to a dedicated companion document: https://www.zh.ch/content/dam/zhweb/bilder-dokumente/themen/steuern-finanzen/steuern/natuerlichepersonen/2025/est-wegleitungen/305_Wegleitung_ZH_2025_HA%20bf%20DEF.pdf — the same "Wegleitung zur Steuererklärung 2025" every prior CH-ZH cycle has used, re-fetched the same way (HTTP 200, 1,497,565 bytes, %PDF-1.7, 40 pages, extracted via pdfjs-dist's getTextContent()). A search for "331", "Hilfsblatt G," "Land- und Forst," and "Landwirtschaft" across the extracted text found: (a) the main return's own Ziffer 2 caption reprinted verbatim, "2. Einkünfte aus selbständiger Erwerbstätigkeit in Handel, Gewerbe, freien Berufen (Hilfsblatt A) oder Landwirtschaft (Hilfsblatt B oder G)" — confirming this document's own reineinkuenfte transfers to the main return's Ziffer 2, exactly as printed on this form's own Ziffer 2.3 transfer caption ("zu übertragen in Ziffer 2 der Steuererklärung"); and (b) an explicit pointer rather than a worked specimen: "Führen Sie einen Landwirtschaftsbetrieb? Dann verwenden Sie bitte das Hilfsblatt B oder das Hilfsblatt G. Beachten Sie die Wegleitung zu diesen Hilfsblättern" — i.e. the main return's own Wegleitung explicitly does not attempt to explain Hilfsblatt B/G's own internal computation, and instead directs filers to a separate, dedicated Wegleitung for those two forms specifically. This is a useful, previously-undocumented discovery technique for any future CH-ZH companion-schedule candidate: search the main return's own Wegleitung for a redirect sentence naming a form-specific companion guidance document, rather than assuming the main Wegleitung is the only available secondary source.
• Companion Wegleitung #2 (dedicated Hilfsblatt B/G Wegleitung), located via the redirect above and confirmed on the listing page: https://www.zh.ch/content/dam/zhweb/bilder-dokumente/themen/steuern-finanzen/steuern/natuerlichepersonen/2025/est-wegleitungen/332%20Wegleitung%20HiB%20HiG%20ZH%202025%20bf%20DEF.pdf — "StA Form 332 (2025) 12.25 — Wegleitung zum Hilfsblatt B" / "Wegleitung zum Hilfsblatt G," fetched directly this cycle (HTTP 200, %PDF-1.x, 145,979 bytes, 8 pages per pdfjs-dist's own page count — the listing page's own displayed "155 KB" size label is consistent with this byte count under KB rounding). Pages 1-3 cover Hilfsblatt B; page 4 is a dedicated "Wegleitung zum Hilfsblatt G" section, and pages 5-7 are two bound Merkblätter (NL 1/2007, Naturalbezüge/Privatanteile/Naturallöhne; and A/2001, Abschreibungen). This Wegleitung's own page-4 section for Hilfsblatt G confirms:
  • Eligibility thresholds verbatim, matching this form's own printed header note and the issue brief's own description: "Für Betriebe in der Talzone bis zu 8 ha landwirtschaftliche Nutzfläche, für Betriebe der voralpinen Hügelzone und der Bergzonen bis zu 20 Rindergrossvieheinheiten... ist anstelle der Deklaration gemäss Hilfsblatt B eine vereinfachte Deklaration auf dem Hilfsblatt G möglich," and "Für gewisse restliche Betriebskosten [kann] anstelle der Auflistung eine Schätzung der Steuerbehörden treten" — i.e. the simplification is specifically that filers sort and total their own receipts by Ziffer, rather than maintaining running ledgers, and may in some cases use a flat estimate instead of itemizing remaining costs.
  • Ziffer-letter cross-references that independently corroborate this schema's own Ziffer 2.1/2.2 lettering. The Wegleitung's own worked flat-rate-deduction guidance cites "Ziffer 2.2i" (restliche Betriebskosten, matching this schema's andereGeschaeftsaufwendungenRestlicheBetriebskosten) and "Ziffer 2.1g" (Privatanteile, matching privatanteilAuto et al.) by the exact same letters this schema models — an independent, source-grounded confirmation that this document's own letter-by-letter income/expense modelling (a-k for Ziffer 2.1, a-i for Ziffer 2.2) matches the live form's actual internal lettering, not just this cycle's own re-derivation of it from the raw PDF text.
  • The flat-rate deduction schedule for Ziffer 2.2i — in the Talzone: CHF 650/ha of Wies-/Ackerland, plus CHF 150/Mutterschwein, CHF 9/sold Mastschwein, CHF 3.50/sold Jager, CHF 3.50/Legehenne, CHF 25/Are of special crop branches; in the Berggebiet/voralpine Hügelzone: CHF 1,000/Rindergrossvieheinheit (GVE), plus CHF 170/Mutterschwein, CHF 12/sold Mastschwein, CHF 4 each/sold Jager and Legehenne — cited in this schema's own andereGeschaeftsaufwendungenRestlicheBetriebskosten description.
  • The Merkblatt NL 1/2007 Naturalbezüge rate table, independently confirming this schema's own naturalbezuegeErwachsene/ naturalbezuegeKinderBis6Jahre/naturalbezuegeKinder6Bis13Jahre/ naturalbezuegeKinder13Bis18Jahre standard rates (CHF 960/240/480/720) printed directly on Hilfsblatt G's own Ziffer 2.1e boxes, plus alternate lower rates for special cases (e.g. CHF 600/145/300/455 "ohne Milch") and the family-size reduction rule (10%/20%/30% for 4/5/6+ children) cited in this schema's field descriptions.
  • The Merkblatt NL 1/2007 employer-side Naturallohnabzug table, independently confirming this schema's own verpflegungBetriebsangestellte CHF 6,120/year standard rate, printed directly on Hilfsblatt G's own Ziffer 2.2f box ("Verpflegung: Personen zu CHF 6120.– pro Jahr").
  • The Merkblatt A/2001 depreciation-rate table, cited in this schema's own maschinenPflanzungenDepreciationSummary/liegenschaftDepreciationSummary field descriptions (e.g. Fahrzeuge/Maschinen 20%/40%, Reben 6%/12%, Obstanlagen 10%/20%, Boden 0%, Gebäude-Gesamtsatz 2%/4%, mechanische Einrichtungen 12%/25%).
  • No worked, fully-numeric specimen of Hilfsblatt G's own internal Ziffer 1-3 lines was found in either Wegleitung — this Wegleitung is methodological/rate-table guidance, not a filled-in illustrative example with real figures. This negative finding is the same class several prior CH-ZH cycles have already made for their own forms and is disclosed explicitly: this schema's own worked mock-data example (below) is independently constructed and its arithmetic hand-recomputed end-to-end, not matched against an official specimen.
• Extraction method. All three PDFs (4-page form, 40-page main-return Wegleitung, 8-page dedicated Hilfsblatt-B/G Wegleitung) were fetched with curl and their text content extracted with pdfjs-dist's legacy build (getTextContent(), text-only, no canvas needed), the reviewer-confirmed reliable default technique for CH-ZH PDFs of any size. All three extracted cleanly in one pass with no garbling. Because this form's own page 1 is a dense multi-column layout, this cycle additionally cross-checked the raw item-level text ordering to confirm that: the header prints only Jahr, Kanton Zürich (fixed text, not a field), AHVN13, Gemeinde, Name, and Vorname — with no firm-name, business-seat, Geschäftsjahr-dates, Erwerbsart, UID, or Nebensteuerdomizile fields anywhere in the extracted text (unlike Hilfsblatt A's own header) — confirming the issue brief's own expectation that this form's header is materially shorter than Hilfsblatt A's.

Scope decision: the two depreciation/value-adjustment tables (Ziffer 1.1, 1.2) each collapsed to one free-text field

GovSchema v0.3 fields are flat: there is no array/nested-object element type yet (array/nested object are proposed only in GSP-0009, not accepted). Ziffer 1.1 cross-tabulates 2 asset columns (Maschinen inkl. Fahrzeuge und Geräte; Pflanzungen, Obst-, Beeren-, Rebkulturen) against 6 metrics (opening book value, additions, disposals, value before depreciation, booked depreciation, closing book value) — 12 cells. Ziffer 1.2 cross-tabulates up to 4 real-estate columns (Gesamte nicht aufgeteilte Liegenschaft, or split into Gebäude inkl. mech. Einrichtungen / Pflanzen inkl. Meliorationen / Boden) against 5 metrics (opening asset value, additions, disposals, closing asset value, and a further cumulative/current-year depreciation sub-table) — a bounded but variably-split structure. Per this registry's established treatment of unbounded/multi-dimensional repeating tables (see e.g. ch/zh/sta/hilfsblatt-a-vereinfachte-buchfuehrung, ch/zh/sta/hilfsblatt-a-kaufmaennische-buchfuehrung), each table is collapsed into its own free-text summary field (maschinenPflanzungenDepreciationSummary, liegenschaftDepreciationSummary). Unlike the Hilfsblatt-A siblings, neither table's own aggregate depreciation figure is separately modelled as its own field, because on this form neither table feeds forward into a single line: Ziffer 1.1's own booked-depreciation metrics feed the four separate Ziffer 2.2e disposal/depreciation lines (abschreibungenMaschinen, abschreibungenObstBeerenReben, abschreibungenGebaeudeMechEinrichtungen, abschreibungenPflanzenMeliorationen) individually, not as one combined transfer figure the way Form 328's own abschreibungenGemaessTabelle (Ziffer 9.10) does.

Scope decision: the Ziffer 3.1 land-use table's itemized rows collapsed to one free-text field; its "Total" row modelled individually

Ziffer 3.1 (Bewirtschaftete Flächen) is a variable-length list of filer-named rows (up to 3 own-canton Gemeinde rows, up to 2 "In anderen Kantonen" Gemeinde rows, and an "Im Ausland" Staat row), each with 3 values (Eigentum ha/a, Pacht ha/a, Pachtzins CHF) — the same class of unbounded, filer-named repeating structure this registry has already collapsed elsewhere (see e.g. ch/zh/sta/schuldenverzeichnis, ch/zh/sta/liegenschaftenverzeichnis). Per this registry's established treatment, the itemized rows are collapsed into one free-text bewirtschafteteFlaechenSummary field. The table's own "Total" row, however, is a single, bounded, fixed-shape aggregate line with the identical 3-value shape (Eigentum, Pacht, Pachtzins) — per the issue brief's own instruction to model a bounded aggregate row individually even when the itemized rows above it are collapsed, this cycle models totalEigentumHa, totalPachtHa, and totalPachtzinsChf as their own required fields. Judgment call on units: the form itself provides separate "ha" and "a" (Aren) entry boxes for each area figure; this cycle folds both into a single decimal-hectare field (1 a = 0.01 ha) rather than doubling the field count with a parallel ...Aren field for each, since a hectare-denominated decimal loses no precision the paper form itself carries (Aren are exact hundredths of a hectare) and this registry has no established convention requiring a literal 1:1 box-for-box field split when a single decimal-typed field captures the same information losslessly.

Scope decision: the running "Zwischentotal" subtotals of Ziffer 2.1 are modelled as computed fields whose formula is inferred from the form's own print sequence, not from an explicit printed formula

Ziffer 2.1 prints three unlabelled "Zwischentotal" lines (after lettered item d, after item h, and after item i) before its final "Total Betriebseinkünfte" line (after item k) — but, unlike Ziffer 2.2's own single "Zwischentotal" (after item e, which is unambiguous since only one intervening item exists), none of the three Ziffer 2.1 Zwischentotal lines carries an explicit printed formula distinguishing "subtotal-of-just-this-letter-group" from "running-cumulative-subtotal." This cycle models each as a running cumulative subtotal (each equal to the prior Zwischentotal plus the newly-introduced items since the last one), and further reads the transition from item i (Bestand Jahresende, closing stock/inventory) to item k (Bestand Jahresbeginn, opening stock/inventory) as an addition-then-subtraction pair — closing stock value is added into the running subtotal at the Zwischentotal immediately following item i, and opening stock value is then subtracted to reach the final Total Betriebseinkünfte — consistent with standard farm-accounting practice (an increase in year-end livestock/produce inventory over the year's opening inventory represents additional realized income for the period; a decrease reduces it) and with the form's own single explicit minus-sign mark on the Bestand-Jahresbeginn Vorräte line, which this cycle reads as applying to the whole item-k group rather than to that one sub-line alone (there is no accounting rationale for subtracting only the produce-inventory opening value while treating the three livestock-category opening values as additions). This reading is disclosed as a judgment call, not a certainty, since no worked specimen with real figures exists to confirm it (see "Sources examined" above) — a future re-verification cycle should re-check this interpretation if a specimen or an official clarification ever surfaces.

Scope decision: Ziffer 3.4's "Besondere Leistungen des Bundes und des Kantons" is modelled as its own itemized-breakdown section, not deduplicated against Ziffer 2.1d

Ziffer 2.1d (besondereLeistungenBundKanton) and Ziffer 3.4 (direktzahlungenInsgesamt and its five-line "davon entfallen auf" breakdown) share an identical printed caption, "Besondere Leistungen des Bundes und des Kantons." Unlike the pure duplicate same-value reprints this registry declines to model twice on Hilfsblatt A (e.g. Ziffer 10.1/10.2/11.1 duplicate reprints with zero additional detail), Ziffer 3.4 is not a bare reprint: it adds five subsidy-type sub-lines (allgemeine Hangbeiträge Bund/Kanton, Sömmerungsbeiträge Bund/Kanton, Tierhaltung erschwerende Produktionsbedingungen) that Ziffer 2.1d itself does not show, plus a separate ackerbaubeitraegeInsgesamt cross-check disclosure figure. This cycle therefore models Ziffer 3.4 as its own six fields, with each field's own description cross-referencing the ordinarily-identical Ziffer 2.1d total rather than silently merging the two. Ziffer 3.4's own printed qualifier, "nur ausfüllen bei Bezug von Familienzulagen" ("only complete when receiving family allowances"), is reproduced verbatim in the field descriptions; this cycle was unable to fully resolve why a subsidy-type breakdown would be gated on receipt of family allowances specifically (the marginal note may be a formatting artifact tying a different nearby instruction — about where Familienzulagen themselves are declared on the main return's own Ziffer 3.4 — to this section), and discloses this as an unresolved ambiguity rather than asserting a confident interpretation.

Field-by-field source mapping

• Household header (AHVN13, Gemeinde, Name, Vorname, Jahr) → ahvn13RemainingDigits, gemeinde, name, vorname, jahr. Unlike Hilfsblatt A, this form's own header prints no firm-name/business-seat, Geschäftsjahr dates, Erwerbsart selector, UID, or Nebensteuerdomizile field — confirmed by direct re-extraction of the header text (see "Sources examined" above); this form is filed per farm operator, not per self-employed activity, so the Hilfsblatt-A-style "which of the main return's own four self-employment lines" selector does not appear here.

Mock-data test run

A complete, internally consistent worked example was constructed and hand-recomputed end-to-end (a small mixed dairy/crop farm, "Hans Meier," Bäretswil, Canton Zürich, Talzone, tax year 2025):

Ziffer 2.1 — Ermittlung der Betriebseinkünfte

• a) Erträge aus Pflanzenbau: Ackerbau 8,000 + Reb-/Obst-/Gemüsebau 0 + Waldbau 2,000 + Heu-/Grasverkauf 3,000 = 13,000.
• b) Erträge aus Tierhaltung: Rindvieh (Milch 95,000 + Fleisch/Tierverkäufe 18,000 − Tierzukäufe 6,000 = 107,000) + Schweine (Fleisch/Tierverkäufe 4,000 − Tierzukäufe 1,000 = 3,000) + Geflügel/andere (2,500 − 500 = 2,000) = 112,000.
• c) Arbeiten für Dritte, Futter-/Weidegelder = 5,000.
• d) Besondere Leistungen Bund/Kanton = 12,000.
• Zwischentotal (after d) = 13,000 + 112,000 + 5,000 + 12,000 = 142,000. Verified: 13,000+112,000=125,000; +5,000=130,000; +12,000=142,000. Exact.
• e) Naturalbezüge: Erwachsene 1,920 (2 × CHF 960) + Kinder –6J 0 + Kinder 6-13J 480 (1 × CHF 480) + Kinder 13-18J 0 + Käsereibezüge 0 = 2,400.
• f) Mietwert Betriebsleiterwohnung 14,000 + Miet-/Pachtzinsen 3,000 = 17,000.

Ziffer 2.3 — Reineinkünfte

• Reineinkünfte = Total Betriebseinkünfte 176,140 − Total Betriebsaufwendungen 127,420 = 48,720. Verified: 176,140−127,420=48,720. Exact. Transfers to the main return's own Ziffer 2.

Ziffer 3.1 — Bewirtschaftete Flächen

• Bäretswil (Eigentum 12.40 ha, Pacht 3.10 ha, Pachtzins CHF 4,200); Wetzikon (Eigentum 2.00 ha, Pacht 0 ha, Pachtzins CHF 0) — bewirtschafteteFlaechenSummary.

• Wald 4.50 ha. Cross-check: Total landw. Nutzfläche (13.00 ha) + Wald (4.50 ha) = 17.50 ha, exactly matching Ziffer 3.1's own Total Eigentum (14.40 ha) + Total Pacht (3.10 ha) = 17.50 ha — confirming Ziffer 3.2's own land-use breakdown reconciles against Ziffer 3.1's own operated-area total, as this schema's own totalLandwirtschaftlicheNutzflaeche description states it should.
• Obstbäume: 45 St.

Ziffer 3.3 — Tierhaltung

• Kühe/Stiere 18, Aufzuchtrindvieh 10, Mastrindvieh 4, Mutterschweine 2, Mastschweine/Jager 8, Pferde 1, Ziegen/Schafe 3, Geflügel 40, Andere 0; Milchkontingent 145,000 kg.

Ziffer 3.4 — Besondere Leistungen Bund und Kanton

• Allgemeine Hangbeiträge Bund 5,000 + Kanton 3,000 + Sömmerungsbeiträge Bund 0 + Kanton 0 + Tierhaltung erschwerende Produktionsbedingungen 4,000 = Direktzahlungen, insgesamt 12,000. Verified: 5,000+3,000=8,000; +4,000=12,000. Exact, and matches besondereLeistungenBundKanton (Ziffer 2.1d) = 12,000 exactly, confirming the cross-reference disclosed in the scope decision above.
• Ackerbaubeiträge, insgesamt = 2,000 (a subset of, and already included within, ertraegeAckerbau = 8,000 at Ziffer 2.1a — 2,000 ≤ 8,000, so the "müssen in den Betriebseinkünften enthalten sein" disclosure requirement is satisfied).

Ziffer 3.5-3.8

• Spezialbetriebszweige: all five checkboxes false; no other special branch.
• Produktionszone: Talzone.
• Ziffer 3.7: no property transactions this year (fields left blank).
• Ziffer 3.8: in den vorstehenden Reineinkünften enthalten (no separate secondary trade).
• Bemerkungen/Beilagen: "Pachtlandverzeichnis beigelegt für Gemeinde Wetzikon (Pacht 3.10 ha)."

Every validation constraint (AHVN13 10-digit pattern, jahr range 2000-2100, produktionszone/anderesGewerbeAlsNebenbetrieb enum membership, non-negative integer counts, maxLength bounds) was also checked by hand against the mock values above. OK.

Both registry validators were run against the schema document itself and pass:

``` $ node tools/validate.mjs registry/ch/zh/sta/hilfsblatt-g/1.0.0/schema.json ok registry/ch/zh/sta/hilfsblatt-g/1.0.0/schema.json

1/1 document(s) passed.

$ node tools/validate-ajv.mjs registry/ch/zh/sta/hilfsblatt-g/1.0.0/schema.json ok registry/ch/zh/sta/hilfsblatt-g/1.0.0/schema.json [v0.3]

1/1 document(s) validated against the meta-schema (ajv 2020-12). ```

tools/verify-sources.mjs was also run (see "Access notes" below for the exact output and invocation).

What is NOT modelled (out of scope), and why

• The Ziffer 1.1/1.2 depreciation/value-adjustment tables' own per-category, per-metric cell breakdown — collapsed into maschinenPflanzungenDepreciationSummary and liegenschaftDepreciationSummary. See scope decision above.
• The Ziffer 3.1 land-use table's own itemized, filer-named municipality/canton/country rows — collapsed into bewirtschafteteFlaechenSummary; its bounded "Total" row is modelled individually. See scope decision above.
• Form 330 (Hilfsblatt B, Fragebogen für Land- und Forstwirtschaft) — a distinct, larger, dual-computation-path questionnaire serving farms exceeding this form's own eligibility thresholds, deliberately deferred as a separate future candidate. See "Why this cycle picked up Form 331" above.
• Any office-only field (none observed on this form).

Judgment calls

1. maschinenPflanzungenDepreciationSummary and liegenschaftDepreciationSummary each collapse their own cross-tabulated table into one free-text field, consistent with every other collapsed repeating table in this registry, but with no separately-modelled aggregate transfer figure, since neither table feeds a single combined line elsewhere on this form (each of the four Ziffer 2.2e lines instead draws from a different individual cell). See scope decision above.
2. bewirtschafteteFlaechenSummary collapses its own itemized rows to one field, while its "Total" row is modelled individually as totalEigentumHa/totalPachtHa/totalPachtzinsChf, folding the form's own separate ha/a entry boxes into one decimal-hectare field per area figure. See scope decision above.
3. The three Ziffer 2.1 "Zwischentotal" lines are modelled as running cumulative subtotals, and the transition from Ziffer 2.1i (added) to Ziffer 2.1k (subtracted) is read as a stock/inventory-change convention applied to the whole item-k group, not just its one explicitly minus-signed sub-line — a disclosed, not certain, interpretation absent a worked specimen. See scope decision above.
4. Ziffer 3.4's six fields are modelled as a distinct itemized-breakdown section, cross-referenced against or ordinarily equal to Ziffer 2.1d's own total, rather than deduplicated as a pure reprint. See scope decision above.
5. The Ziffer 3.3 "Anzahl" column header is read as applying uniformly to all nine named animal-category rows, rather than as a second value tied specifically to milchkontingentKg — a disclosed reading of a genuinely ambiguous print layout (see the field's own description).
6. Booleans (kaelbermast, pferdezucht, pensionspferde, pouletmast, viehhandel) use GovSchema's boolean field type for the form's own ja/nein checkboxes, rather than the string+enum pattern this registry has used elsewhere for multi-option selects, since each is a genuine binary yes/no question.
7. produktionszone is modelled as a required, single-select enum across the form's own five mutually exclusive zone options, since a farm's production zone is fixed and always determinable, and it gates the applicable flat-rate deduction schedule for Ziffer 2.2i.
8. jahr is modelled as a required field, matching the Form 328/329 precedent: this form is likewise hosted at a year-independent URL with a genuinely filer-entered tax-year box.
9. Amounts are modelled as plain number fields (or integer for discrete head counts and the Obstbäume count), consistent with every other CH-ZH companion schedule.
10. jurisdiction.level is subnational with subdivision: "CH-ZH", identical to the main return and its nine other companion schedules.
11. No live submission was attempted — filing a real Swiss cantonal tax return attachment is a real legal act with a real cantonal tax authority, not a safe or reversible action to simulate against a live government process, consistent with this registry's standing discipline.

Access notes

No access blocks: zh.ch was reachable directly from this environment with plain curl for the form, the main return's own Wegleitung, and the dedicated Hilfsblatt B/G Wegleitung alike — no TCP-level reset, WAF, or CAPTCHA gate encountered, consistent with every prior CH-ZH cycle's finding that zh.ch's own tax-forms domain is unblocked.

tools/verify-sources.mjs was run scoped to this document's own registry directory and confirms every cited URL is live and independently reachable:

``` $ node tools/verify-sources.mjs registry/ch/zh/sta/hilfsblatt-g verify-sources: checking 1 schema version directory...

verify-sources: 1 directory, 6 URLs checked, 0 warning(s), 0 allowlisted, all clear. ```

Scope and jurisdiction notes

• This is Switzerland's tenth Taxes-vertical document (a companion schedule to the main return, ch/zh/sta/steuererklaerung-natuerliche-personen), not a new vertical or jurisdiction; Switzerland remains at 2 of 6 verticals.
• id reuses the sta authority-directory segment (the same cantonal tax office) and a short slug, hilfsblatt-g, since — unlike the two Hilfsblatt A variants, which needed a bookkeeping-method disambiguator in their own slugs — Hilfsblatt G is its own standalone form with no sibling variant requiring disambiguation.
• No edition member is used, consistent with this registry's existing treatment of the other CH-ZH companion schedules — even though this particular form's own hosting path is year-independent, its content (the tax year a given filing covers) is still scoped by the filer-entered jahr field, not by a schema-version edition axis.

Re-verification

Per the practice's cadence, nextReviewBy is set to 2027-01-09 (6 months), the same cadence as the main return and its other companion schedules. Because status remains draft, a future review should prioritize: confirming the next tax year's edition of the main return keeps the same Ziffer-2 transfer target for this schedule's own Reineinkünfte line, confirming this form's own year-independent hosting path and "Jahr" box convention persists, re-checking whether the standalone Form 331 PDF is ever republished under a newer print-date stamp matching the "(2024) 12.25" facsimile embedded in the 2025 Wegleitung (see the residual discrepancy disclosed under "Sources examined" above), and re-screening whether Hilfsblatt B (Form 330) — now the sole remaining CH-ZH companion-schedule backlog candidate — has become a tractable next cycle's candidate.
