Technical Webinar: Farms Under Threat 2040
July 7, 202211 AM – 12 PM CDT
American farmland and ranchland is rapidly disappearing, threatening our food security, undermining the agricultural economy, and making us vulnerable to climate shocks. The nation has a choice: allow unchecked sprawl to erode this critical resource, or safeguard it with smarter land-use planning that leads to efficient growth. Farms Under Threat 2040: Choosing an Abundant Future, a new report from American Farmland Trust, maps three alternative futures out to the year 2040. This technical webinar is targeted to practitioners and researchers who would like to use the data for further analysis. It will take a closer look at the data, methods, and Web application.
