For projects that would result in the conversion of prime agricultural land to non-agricultural uses, the environmental document should consider mitigation measures to address the potential loss of the agricultural land, as provided for under Government Code Section 65965 et al.  Additional information can be found in Ventura LAFCo’s Informational Guidelines for the Consideration of Agricultural Mitigation Measures, available on the Ventura LAFCo website at www.ventura.lafco.ca.gov.
