Planning for agriculture is a process to establish a farm friendly policy framework for communities, states and even regions. It includes guidelines on land use, economic development and environmental management. Like other planning processes, it involves data collection and analysis, visioning and goal setting, and extensive stakeholder engagement, along with writing, implementing and enforcing the plan.
