Abstract:
As of May 2008, 27 states have authorized state-level purchase of agricultural conservation easement (PACE) programs. Montana’s PACE statute expired in 2003. This table displays the status and summarizes important information about farm and ranch land protection programs in 21 states that have funded easement acquisition. For a program to be included, the protection of agricultural lands must be one of its core purposes, accomplished primarily by compensating landowners for the value of the easement.
