New Jersey S376 prohibits condemnation of farmland for non-agricultural purposes.
New Jersey S376 amends existing law to prohibit the condemnation of farmland actively supporting agricultural or horticultural production for purposes other than agricultural or horticultural production. This law aims to protect farmland from being taken through eminent domain for non-agricultural development, supporting the state's goal of preserving 500,000 acres of farmland. The bill ensures that eminent domain is used for public projects rather than private profit.
