Social equity in agricultural land protection
AbstractIt is asserted that public policy alternatives for agricultural land protection have been assessed largely on the basis of their efficiency. A social equity framework for assessing such policies is developed which stresses intergenerational, tenure and process equity concerns. This framework is used to evaluate the equity implications of four types of agricultural land protection policies — differential tax assessment, large-lot zoning, purchase of development rights and private, public interest land trusts. Sharply contrasting patterns of equity are evidenced among certain of the criteria and, under certain assumptions, the policies as a whole. In conclusion, the utility of equity assessment for policy analysis is stressed. Also, the need to further develop the social equity framework and to test the conclusions reached here via case studies of policies in place is called for.
