Economic Impacts of Farmland Protection in Wisconsin

Wisconsin is projected to lose over 515,200 acres of farmland by 2040, with the most conversion happening on the country’s best and most productive farmland.

Agricultural conservation easements are important in protecting our state’s most vulnerable farmland while preserving farm legacy, making land more affordable for new and beginning farmers, and creating economic opportunities for Wisconsin’s rural communities.

To learn how agricultural conservation easements create economic growth and impact farm families, join the Wisconsin Farmland Protection Partnership and agricultural economists Dr. Becca Jablonski and Dr. Allie Bauman for Economic Impacts of Farmland Protection in Wisconsin.
