WHAT WE DO

HERE FOR THE LONG HAUL

Just as you and your family are dedicated to the land, RTK takes pride in working with conservation easement owners and helping them obtain their agricultural vision well after the easement has been conveyed. We routinely touch base with easement owners to answer their questions, and keep them informed.

LOSING GROUND

The U.S. loses 6,000 acres a day to urban sprawl. In Kansas, it’s as much as three acres per hour. There is a welcome place for urban and commercial development in Kansas. RTK works to ensure there is also a place for agriculture and grassland habitat.

PARTNERSHIP OF RANGELAND TRUSTS

Ranchland Trust of Kansas is a proud member of the Partnership of Rangeland Trusts (PORT), a group of agricultural-focused state conservation associations. Together, PORT members across 12 states have partnered with over 2,000 farm and ranch families to conserve more than 3.1 million acres keeping working lands in working hands. One family’s decision to conserve their land contributes to a much larger mission that keeps the agricultural foundation of the West and Midwest prosperous and productive.

GRASSLAND CONSERVATION SERIES

In partnership with Emil Redmon’s Cow, we were awarded a Cultural Preservation Grant from Humanities Kansas—to collect more good stories while exploring the timely and important topic of grassland conservation. To hear the stories, click “Learn More”.
