Newspapers seem to be telling us that every cornfield is threatened by a Dairy Queen. This media barrage about the crisis of our “shrinking” farmland can be traced to the 1979 publication of Where Have All the Farmlands Gone? by the National Agricultural Lands Study. The NALS report, to which eleven federal agencies contributed, argued that land-use planning and control must be employed to protect valuable farmland from “urban sprawl.” This volume, a collection of essays by a distinguished group of economists including Theodore W. Schultz, Julian L. Simon, and Pierre Crosson, takes issue with the belief that croplands need governmental protection. In opposition the collection as a whole supports two theses: 1) shrinking farm acreage is not a serious problem, and 2) individual choices by landowners in a market setting result in better-organized land use than would governmental land-use planning and regulation.

Productive agricultural lands are an irreplaceable natural resource. Nonetheless, as urban populations increase and spill over the edges of the urban boundary, communities are relinquishing farmland to low-density development without regard to preserving these vital lands. While the growth of cities is essential to their economic health, that growth does not have to be at a premium cost to rural areas. The agricultural industry is vital to the United States economically, environmentally, and socially, so local planners and community members must make agricultural preservation part of long-term planning goals. There is no doubt that the realities of agriculture are changing, as small farmers find that agricultural production is no longer viable, as the popularity of organic farming and specialty crops increases, and as globalization raises phyto-sanitary and economic issues. As such, realistic, long-term planning goals that take the benefits and drawbacks of agriculture into account are vital. Land use planning is one tool that can be paired with other strategies to help save vital agricultural lands, so that the benefits of farming can be realized in our communities for the future.

As land is lost to urban sprawl and other non-farm activity, our ability to produce food is diminished and options for future food production are limited. Farmland preservation speaks to the need to preserve the agricultural land base for future generations. The need for protection is driven by uncertainty caused by climate change, population growth, food security, energy availability, and other local and global factors. This uncertainty means that there is an ever-growing responsibility to ensure that the actions of today do not compromise the needs of future generations. This second edition of Farmland Preservation provides a range of views and case studies from across Canada, the United States, and beyond. Its fourteen essays are intended to help the reader understand the importance of the issue and the potential for applying new approaches to agricultural protection, policy tools, and initiatives.
