FOREWORD (Continued) ? IMPORTANT NOTE: The lease and planning concepts presented in this Guidebook are not comprehensive, and are not intended as boilerplate language. Instead, they should be used with other existing lease tools for the construction of rigorous regenerative grazing leases. Readers should consult with an advisor and/or attorney to draft and review any lease well before it is signed. A Note on Land Trusts Photo: William Milliot, TomKat Ranch Conservation easements can protect important grazing lands from subdivision and development, preserve certain conservation values, and even prohibit grazing in sensitive areas. ‘Affirmative’ easement language is being used by some land trusts to require active grazing and management planning, but easements alone rarely promise regenerative outcomes. Agricultural conservation land trusts must work in conjunction with landholders, lessees, and range managers to achieve ecological, social and economic goals. California’s land trusts have protected over 2.5 million acres across the state, according to the California Council of Land Trusts, including over 320,000 acres in easements held by California Rangeland Trust. Our public and nonprofit land trusts hold responsibility for stewarding these protected lands, even as they work to conserve more. By executing carefully considered grazing leases on rangelands they own, and by providing lease information to the landowners with whom they partner as easement-holders, land trusts can support working graziers and regenerative outcomes. © Copyright 2022 California FarmLink and TomKat Ranch Educational Foundation 3
