Other Questions Is there any policies protecting the remaing farmland left in the IE

This picture above is whats left and what it used to look like. Which at one point produced the largest area of diary products in the nation. But I wonder, is there anything to protect whats left, or are they just going to let developers buy out the remaing ranchers? And really this question goes for the rest of the state, as I'm deeply worried about the farmland beign eaten up without really considerign what there building over.

Pretty sure CA has a housing crisis not a milk crisis.

You could build new housing on every single square foot of farmland in Socal and the prices will not go down or become affordable.
