Preserving the farmland and agricultural resources for our future generations. The environmental impact of agriculture varies based on the wide variety of agricultural practices employed around the world.

Farmland preservation aims to protect our future generation. It aims to secure enough farms as permanent anchors so that people can see that their local farm economy can weather the loss of a number of non-protected farms without cause. Farmland preservation provides assurance that farming is there to stay in a community.
