Abstract

The purpose of this paper is to analyze the present demands on Iowa land and project the impact of past trends and current plans and policies of certain public bodies on future land use. The paper is organized into four sections. Section I summarizes and evaluates the results of the land use projections. Section II describes the need for projecting future land uses. The methodology employed for projecting land uses and the description of each land use category as used in this paper are given in Section III. Finally, Section IV presents the results of both the current estimates and future projections of land use acreages for the state and its regions.
