He is considering purchase of additional land with the easement payment money to make Barrier <br />Brothers farming operation more sustainable. Plans are to use NCADFPTF and USDA FRPP matching funds to establish a <br />permanent agricultural conservation easement on 35.4 project acres proposed for the $89,600 grant award. <br />2. What community need(s) will the project serve? <br />(200 words or less.) <br />The primary community needs addressed by protection of this initial approximate sixth of the Barrier Brothers farm with a <br />permanent agricultural conservation easement include food commodity production, employment opportunities, support of the local <br />and regional agribusiness economy and environmental services. The Barrier Brothers cattle operation is a potential supplier for <br />the Cruse Meats harvesting facility that opened in the Summer 2012 with partial funding from the ADFPTF. <br />3. Are other organizations, programs, projects, etc. serving the community needs noted in <br />item #2? if so, how is this project different /why is this project necessary? <br />(200 words or less.) <br />Farmland protection through permanent agricultural conservation easements is foundational to sustainable agriculture in Cabarrus <br />County. Farmland preservation on the urban /suburban fringe in areas like the towns of Locust and Mt. Pleasant is essential for a <br />local food system in Cabarrus County. Cabarrus SWCD and the Land Trust for Central NC partner under a memorandum of <br />agreement believed to be the first of its kind in the country. The LTCNC is a partner on this application and the intended <br />contingency grantee on any conservation easement. <br />Page 11 of 22 Easement Application <br />Attachment number 3 <br />F -6 Page 121 <br />
