Representation Summary:
Farm land is being too easily thought of as suitable land for housing. Once made for housing it will never go back. More farm land needs to be kept to prevent further urban spread and encourage wildlife to stay or even return. These areas are better used to be turned into wildlife areas which is also better for the human spirit. Some farmland will inherently be needed for housing but habitats and corridors are being lost.
