Congressmen Back Farmland Protection
WASHINGTON, D.C.
Thirty-two congressmen have
signed a letter urging the House
Committee on Agriculture to
make state and local farmland pro
tection programs a priority in the
1995 Farm Bill.
The congressmen are from Ari
zona, California, Connecticut,
Delaware, Massachusetts, Mary
land, Michigan, Minnesota, New
Jersey, New Mexico, New York,
Ohio, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Vir
ginia, and Vermont.
In the letter, the congressmen
say the loss of land threatens the
economic productivity, scenic
open space, watersheds and wild
life, and tax savings provided by
farmland.
‘The nation is losing over 1
million acres of productive farm
land each year to urban develop
ment, a loss of topsoil roughly
equivalent to that being saved by
federal erosion control efforts,”
stated the congressmen. “A na
tional problem of this magnitude
deserves national attention. Farm
ers who have been turned away
from state and local programs be
cause of a lack of resources de
serve federal support to help them
meet their goals.”
Edward fhompsofi'Jr., director
of public policy for American
Farmland Trust, applauded the
congressmen for recognizing the
need to step up federal support of
state and local farmland protection
Programs. AFT, a national farm
land conservation group, today is-
sued a report calling for greater
federal assistance.
“It’s time the federal govern
ment shifts its conservation priori
ties somewhat,” said Thompson.
“Although we are paving over as
much soil as we conserve, we are
spending 200 times less on farm
land protection than soil conserva
tion. A shift of less than S percent
of erosion control funds into

“This is not too much to ask,”
Thompson said, “to protect a re
source as critical as the farmland
around our cities, where most of
the nation’s fruits and vegetables
arc grown and where open space,
wildlife habitat and watersheds
should remain undeveloped.”
