... the Conservation Fund, an Arlington, Va.-based nonprofit that restores wilderness on unproductive farmland ...

What an incredibly preposterous conceit!

The land grabbers are legion. They love to use the Endangered Species Act to prevent farmers from using their land. That makes the land worthless for the intended purpose and worthless for sale to others for any other purpose. The farmer bails out and the land grabbers buy the land a fire sale prices to make "wilderness" out of it. These "non profits" are often given special tax considerations that no other buyer can have. It makes stealing the land some much easier. Some of the money employed is actually provided from federal tax revenues.

'restores wilderness on unproductive farmland'??? -- Wouldn't that mean letting the weeds grow where it was once cultivated? And they get paid to do that? hhahaha.
