DESCRIPTION
An agricultural conservation easement (ACE) is a voluntary, legally recorded deed restriction that is placed on a specific property used for agricultural production. ACEs are created specifically to ensure agriculture remains viable over a long period of time and to prevent incompatible development on the subject parcels. While other benefits may accrue because the land is not developed (scenic and habitat values, for example), normally the primary use of the land is agriculture. Strategies 13 and 17 may make use of easements in addition to other tools such as direct payments.
