and Food wants to set $12 million toward a measure that blocks farmers from selling out to developers.

The department’s request has set off some tension among Utah officials. While most agree the decline in farms is a problem, there is a divide on how to address it. Utah receives $5 million to $6 million in federal funds annually for conservation easements. But the problem continues to grow. Between 2017 and 2022, Utah saw a loss of over 1,000 farms, a 5.6%. Roughly 2.7 million acres of Utah farmland have disappeared since the 1960s, according to Terry Camp, public policy vice president for the Utah Farm Bureau.
