Working Lands Initiative/Farmland Preservation Program Information Page
The Wisconsin Working Lands Initiative was passed as part of the state's 2009-2011 biennial budget, under Chapter 91 of the Wisconsin State Statutes.
The main components of the program include:
- Expansion and modernization of the State's existing Farmland Preservation (FPP)Tax Credit Program;
- Establishment of Agricultural Enterprise Areas (AEAs);
- Development of a purchase of agriculture conservation easements program (PACE).
The goal of the new WLI is to preserve significant agricultural areas throughout the state.
