Preserving rural uses of the land: Why? Where? How much? Who pays?
1982
Plaut, T.R.
Extract: In this paper we consider some of the more important questions assciated with the preservation of land for farming and other rural uses. First, we detail more carefully the effects of urban expansion on farming and other rural activities. Second, we address, from a national and regional perspective, the question, Why preserve farmland? and review some of the state and local approaches to farmland preservation. Finally, we consider a central question in rural land preservation: Who pays? Is the cost of preservation largely assumed by the public or the private sector?
