Improving Conservation of Nature on Private Lands: Targeted Research and Awareness-raising

Website

Conservation easements are legal agreements restricting land use to protect its conservation values. To date, these easements have conserved over 500,000 acres across Alberta.

As farmers and ranchers retire and sell their land, real estate professionals must understand the complexities of these easements to assist buyers and sellers. This project will help bridge the existing knowledge gap in the industry, providing a better understanding of these easements.
