Landowners who want to protect their land well into the future can enter into a conservation easement with a land trust, government agency, tribe or other qualified organization. Conservation easements offer effective and flexible protection, and are one of the most frequently used tools for conserving private land.
If you give property to a qualified organization, you can generally deduct the fair market value (FMV) of the property at the time of the contribution.

Land conservation is the process of protecting natural land and returning developed land to its natural state.

Conservation easement holders and farmers may not always share a common vision. Conservation easements can reduce the property's overall value, making the land worth less for future sales.
